Very nice, as usual! Gaming with Spearhead, do you give the redoubts special defence-values?

Yes, you get 360 degree field of fire and a special -2 to any attacker in close assault as they are surrounded by barbed wire, as well as the usual -2 defence value for being entrenched against fire etc.

OMG. Have you thought of going into production with those and your trench systems?. I've absolutely no spare time at all to do anything of that quality. Whose barbed wire are you using or is it your own?


Through the travail of the ages Midst the pomp and toil of war Have I fought and strove and perished Countless times upon this star.
So as through a glass and darkly The age long strife I see Where I fought in many guises, Many names but always me.
So forever in the future Shall I battle as of yore, Dying to be born a fighter But to die again once more.

I'm afraid I don't have time to go into production. They are fairly easy to make, it is just a bit time consuming, and I barely have enough time to produce them for myself. The barbed wire is sealing wire from ebay

If you want to know how I made the barbed wire installations (rather than just the 'concertina' type which is just wound around a cocktail stick) then you can find details here:
