Tabletop Workshop: This stunning piece of scenery is the very first part of the massive castle set. We'll be releasing it as an individual product, The 28mm Watch Tower and as part of the exciting 28mm Castle, The Castle Round Tower. The set is fully modular and with the addition of wall and door connectors, the watchtower becomes it's castle counterpart. We recommend that after getting the tower, you glue the levels of the Watch Tower together as separate items. Afterwards, you'll find yourselves with the ability to use removable and stackable floors allowing you to add and remove levels to change the height of the tower before you play. Add more levels and make an extra large tower or shorten it by taking out the middle layer. You decide.
As usual with our kits, there is a high level of detail on the inside and out. By lifting the parapet level off, wargamers now have the possibility to place their figures inside the tower. We've gone as far as including arrow slits so that your archers can attack from inside. We've even included stairs to allow realistic movement to your troops. The watchtower is 115mm diameter. This is more than enough space for up to 4 or 5 figures to stand on the top floor and at the massive height of 178mm, the tower will certainly stand out on your gaming board.
The above picture shows our 3D printed prototype of the tower. This was designed mainly to test the mechanisms of how it fits together. (So we know that some of the creases in the door haven't come out properly.) Overall, it has been an overwhelming success. The clips work perfectly fine and the sizes and scales are a great match for any 28mm wargames. The wall and the joining piece which fits it to the tower have now also been 3D printed and are ready to be unveiled in the upcoming weeks. Make sure you keep up to date with this webpage as this will be the very first place to find pictures, videos and every little detail concerning the castle as we make our way through the manufacturing process.
