Ruined plastic hamlet kit
« on: February 20, 2012, 09:40:57 PM »
This may be old news but Warlord have a ruined hamlet plastic kit coming out:

http://www.warlordgames.com/17605/pre-order-plastic-ruined-hamlet/

It could be good for Napoleonic, WWII, etc. It looks like you get 3 of the buildings shown for £35, or rather the components to build them.

I am really excited about this product.  IIRC it is three farmhouses for $55.  Not too shabby!

Shades of the old Airfix Command Post kit. Makatishi did a nice version for 28mm figures, there's a nice how to thread on here somewhere.

That looks promissing. Especially at the prices of 35 gbp for 3 of those sets.

Thanks for posting, this passed me by, didn't notice it on their newsletter!

Good value if you can make all three buildings.

I'm assuming its three of each, so 6 buildings at least.

But still potentially highly useful.

Its plastic, take a knife to it.

I'd possibly buy one but not three.

I might be wrong but I figured you just got three of the sprues? If the photos are indicative of what you can make from a sprue, that would be three of the large buildings and three of the smaller ones. As Prof. W says, being plastic there should be scope for relatively easy conversions.

They look interesting.
As one who is challenged by such kits,
is there an instruction sheet with them. lol
