Looking good. I always have had a soft spot for heroic last stands.
What scale is it?

Hi

Its 15mm scale - made from MDF.

Had we got the space, we'd have probably headed north.....

Looks great. Very accurate too, according to the latest research/speculation. ;D

Pretty good and also looks game-able. That’s a great combination.

Thanks Nick & all

Yeah, I did spend a bit of time researching the various plans & drawings and trawling through some forums to get my initial design, then had to decide what bits to include to make it functional in a game.

I've yet to get some more clumps for the abatis but its not far off finished.

Additionally there were only about 120 Mexicans around this area - whether they were a coup de main or decoy is a matter of debate.....but its manageable 1:1.

thanks
