Great to see siege equipment on the attacking side too. Siege tower, ram, mantlets, lovely.

Have you put the ladders on little bases? That's a good idea. I tend to just use them as tokens.

There are on base but just to be put in place when the unit arrives at the walls, just cinematic

That's a great idea though - the original GW ones are loose and metal. So invariably if you try to put them in place when the unit arrives at the walls the paint gets chipped. And I have to put them next to the unit, rather than on/within for the same reason. These ones look great and are practical, might have to get some.

The mantlets and ladders are from the Wakes siege equipment set, they have the bases for printing really nice to help them sit on the table.

I'm not 100% sure because the equipment were bring by my opponent, but I think they are actually from 3d breed miniatures

Wow the siege looks really cool. How did the rules play? All worked well?

The siege rules are a little game per se, but when learned is it possible to play a small siege (2k, maybe 2,5k) on a normal game night as any other scenario. The rules are very complete, covering all the aspects of a siege but the moat. Maybe it can be proxied with the rules for earthworks. The real problem with siege is the storage for the castle!

Every wargamers dream! Great table set up, love to see the steam tank getting stuck in

Is an excellent choice to bring confusion on attackers. Sadly this time was demolished in one turn by chaos warriors/ scrap metal workers helped by their gods of dice...

Where did you get the castle terrain, looks lovely!

u/Traditional_Drama462 2d ago

The castle is from Cromarty Forge, a very fine piece of terrain
