Simple culverts
« on: November 03, 2019, 11:53:31 PM »
I'm currently playing the Chain of Command campaign Taking The Gembloux Gap and one scenario calls for the French to demolish two road culverts to stall the German advance. As culverts also feature in a number of other scenarios I wanted to make some for my terrain. I wanted something fairly versatile and came up with the idea of doing them as 'bookends'. Here are some pictures and there is a little bit more about how I constructed them here  https://thetacticalpainter.blogspot.com/2019/11/making-culverts.html

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, I shall therefore nick your idea as a compliment to you. :)
