About this model
A tall castle wall section topped with crenellations, the notched parapet defenders shoot through. It is 5 ft wide, 1.5 ft thick and 15.5 ft tall, fitting one grid edge. The merlons rise in a regular rhythm along the top edge.
Use it to crown the outer walls of keeps and fortresses. Archers on the wall walk can fire through the gaps and duck behind the merlons for cover. It turns a wall into a fighting position. Run them along a wall walk so archers can shift position. From the top a defender looks out over the whole battlefield. It is the obvious target for any siege.
Ideas for the table
- Archers on the battlements rain arrows on the party as they approach the gate.
- A gargoyle perched on the battlements comes to life at midnight.
- The party defends the battlements against a siege tower rolling toward the wall.
