Trench system options

[paulr]

It is indeed WeeWars and I found the prices very reasonable

I'll leave the rest to him

As I said Michael made me an offer I couldn't refuse... not the Mafia kind

After exchanging a few emails he sent me a picture of samples of the seven different trench modules he had designed. I will use these as markers to show where the trenches are and the troops will sit behind them.



From left to right
- Observation post, the trench is only 10mm wide so it is mainly to add variation and break up the trench line a bit, one stand will still fit behind it
- outward wedge, allows bends in the trench with room for one stand
- 50mm position, for artillery or HQ stands
- inwards wedge, allows bends in the trench
- normal section, room for 3-4 infantry or 3 dismounted cavalry stands
- end section, as the name suggests to mark the end of a trench

After a very rapid cutting session over 80 trench sections are heading my way

I'm going to be very busy with filler and paint as soon as they arrive

I'm really please with the flexibility of the system Michael has come up with in response to my vague suggestions
I'm very grateful to him for rushing the order out just before Christmas so that it will get to NZ in time for our demo game on 31 January

I really like this could you do various sizes like 80mm and 120mm  for full regiments and what price would the be.

Take care

I'll be interested to see them when assembled

I'm still waiting patiently patiently for mine to arrive from the other side of the world

My guess is they will get here some time next week

Next year you mean?

Next year you mean?

That sounds worse than it is of course, but still...

Just make sure you've got a big pot of ready-mix Polyfilla all ready for filling up the embankments. 

[paulr]

I've already checked out the price of the 1kg pot, $23.90 (GBP10)

I might go for the less well known brand, $17.90

It was only a couple of Christmas cards from my brother, one for us the other for my daughter

Patience Paul, patience...
You won't even need these trenches 'till next year!

Cheers,
Rob

Just remember next year is a day closer here

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

I did wonder if you would get it!!

Paulr - I assume you will favor us with photos of the finished set-up next month (or next year)?
Incidentally the evolving discussions in this thread have been among the best I've found so far in my beginning
explorations of the forum.
