Fail assembly in Empress/Warlord Rorke's Drift set?
« on: January 10, 2012, 09:18:48 PM »
OK, am I the only one who wonders about this?

There is no entrance to the two rooms which I marked in red? I think two walls have been switched in the assembly, the ones I marked with arrows.





Am I missing something or did their painter assemble the building wrong?

You are correct. My room mate assembled mine (hey he wanted to and who was I to object) switched the two walls. He never said anything about it but then he probably didn't look at the instructions to closely. He had very high praise for the staircase on the outside of the building just because you're able to actually stand your figures on it unlike certain other company's buildings (GW).

Don't get me wrong, I think it looks to be a wonderful set and I would buy it right away if I had the money, I just wondered why two such professional companies made a mistake like this.

Painter fail. I've just looked at the instructions and the walls have been put in incorrectly.

I think you're supposed to make your own doorway, with a bayonet  ;)

You're only supposed to blow the bloody doors off ;)
