28mm Vauban fortifications
« on: March 06, 2016, 06:08:35 PM »
Does anyone know of any companies who produce reasonably priced 28mm Vauban forts, not thinking of hard resin or paper ones.

Paper Terrain offers a paper (had you surprised there, didn't I  ;)) version: http://paperterrain.mybisi.com/products/vauban-fortifications

There is also a good tutorial for building your own fortress elements: http://napoleonicscenarios.weebly.com/vauban-fortress.html

How much is "reasonably priced" and where are you based?

Bonjour,

I really like this but am wary of how shipments from Australia are handled, and or taxed, by the UK or French customs when they arrive.

Anybody had any experience of either?

Also, how easy were the models to assemble?

Cheers,

Paul
