Have you ever bought the D&D board game - there's often a few kicking around on ebay pretending to be HQ.  The forest / green areas could be adapted.  
I know it's not exactly marsh but my forest sections might be of some use?  Sort of designed for WHQ originally:

Perhaps if you blurred them in a program?

I think the trick with swamps or marshes is to define the difference between  the totally saturated areas with the passable "path" areas.

There's very some cheap sets ($1.50) by this guy, although the marsh set I was looking out looked like it had wooden walkways, which didn't quite look right.

the swamp set looks good. These are downloadables? You pay for the file right and just get it printed out?

Yup.  It's freaky, and yet strangely ideal for floor plans or tiles, because you only have to print what you need, providing you can afford the ink cartridges.  Many folk like to mount tiles on foam card, I'm quite happy printing to heavy photocopy or thick card.

i wish I didn't get some of the D&D map tiles. I knew they weren't D&D from the get go, but they were the closest at the time that I could find. Maybe I could sell them at a discount on eBay.

You can always snip them up and use bits and pieces as scenery, but an ebay sale might make another player happy.  Personally, I hoard everything!  :)

I dunno, the D&D boardgame tiles are perfectly serviceable for HQ (and similar games) and give you plenty of options for different layouts including outside type areas such as gardens and courtyards


^ here's a picture shamelessly stolen from another site of the D&D boardgame tiles being used along side the HQ board - hope it inspires

I don't know if it is exactly what your looking for, but you might find some of the stuff from Greywolf's website useful.
