Oh, bollocks! That was the whole point with my post, wasn't it?



It's for 28mm figs BTW, although you can't tell from the pic. I had to back away a bit from it since it is about 60 cm tall.

Blimey, that is tall! Have you had the chance to use it in a game yet? If so, what kind of game was it?

One with snipers! You can't use that without having snipers in it!

Yes, unneccessarely tall. But it looks good on the table and comes apart i three sections so storage is not a problem.

No, I have not. I moved back to Sweden before I had time to use it with my then gaming group. It was specificaly built for a LotR scenario but I did so hoping to use it for other purposes like for my Florentine renaissance assassins (Medici et all) and night watch . It may work for Romans to.

It has a certain Italian*) feel to it so I am not sure it would work for France or Germany.

Edit: *) Campanile Yes, that the word I was looking for.

Were I a sniper, I would position myself anywhere but in the campanile.

It's the first place everyone would look (and start shooting at).

Ummm, preferably with something having a large calibre. This place is an education    :)
The other buildings: Very nice, Hammershield - so the campanile would be around 3x the height of the other buildings, then?

Sgt Perry - how did you do your windows and doors?  I have some ready-made windows and doors for 20mm models, but is it possible to get ready made ones for 25/28mm?
