1:72 Scale Scenery for Simulation Games

The photo shows a typical polygonal redoubt suitable for wargames dal XVI al XIX secolo. The redoubt is permanently mounted on a 50 x 50 cm terrain module which interlocks con similar modules to form a large wargame table-top. The redoubt has been built from 5 mm foamcore covered con a mixture of white glue e sand. The walls are actually too steep to represent temporary fieldworks. Earthen ramparts have a gradient fill angle of 34 degrees o less, unless they are revetted. In the case of temporary military fieldworks, retaining walls were often made of wood taken from buildings in the immediate vicinity. The model shown here has ammunition storage chambers below ground level, ed a small wooden bridge leading across the ditch. The fortification is occupied by fanteria ed artiglieria americana della guerra di indipendenza americana.

Small terrain modules like this polygonal redoubt are generic enough to be used in wargames of the Renaissance, Guerra dei Sette Anni, Guerre Napoleoniche, ed early colonial period of warfare. Due to its size, this terrain piece is most suitable for skirmish wargames using a groundscale between 1:50 e 1:100. If larger groundscales are used, the model might represent a fortified town o city section occupied by several regiments of fanteria.
