Matakishi's Tea House: Free Carentan Building Guide!


Hi, Just found this new building guide by Dominic from Matakishi's Tea House and this time it's a free one! Carentan details the building of the Second World War French town featured in Band of Brothers for wargaming in 28mm and can be downloaded here.

It contains detailed build notes and many full-color photographs of the process. There is also a section explaining the quest to match the known historical facts with the reality of Carentan today, including both period and modern photographs, and an analysis of the fighting at the time. Carentan is a riveting tale of historical research and a valuable modelling resource.

Review of the guide by Mark S. : "This is a fantastic, well researched and very useful guide to a popular battle site. Thanks for creating it!"

I'm familiar with the info on Carentan on the Matakishi website, I can only confirm that it is excellent information on the fighting there, the history, and on how to recreate it.
