Title: 15mm Crescent Root Town Set
Post by: bigjackmac on 02 February 2016, 01:41:27 AM
All,

My birthday presents arrived!!!  I picked up the brand new 15mm Crescent Root Town Set, and it's absolutely beautiful.  I can't wait to get them on the table; when I got home from work to find the box waiting on me I couldn't help but set them up to take a look.  My older son played with them for a good hour.

Ta-daa!!!  Awesome!!!  I'm so happy I made this purchase!  Panda and Slavin look out, I'm comin' for ya.  Okay, maybe not, but this is a big step in that direction (for me, at least).  This is the whole set, which comes pre-painted AND pre-assembled.  You just pull it out of the box and BAM!  You're ready to go.

The whole set comprises the following:
-2' x 2' mat that's printed on mousepad type material.
-Five buildings with detachable roofs and floors (each story comes apart).
-A textured base for each building.
-Each building comes with at least one separate 'bombed out' story.  Ugh, I just realized I didn't take photos of any of the bombed out sections...

To see all the pics, please check the blog at:

On a side note, I also received my 15mm Eureka Minis WWII Japanese troops and some Battlefront 15mm OH-6 helos.  Quite a day!

Stay tuned, more posts of finished 15mm troops to come.

V/R,
Jack

Looks very nice, and I like the pre-ruined sectiona s well - adds a lot of versatility!

Fantastic looking!

Would it work with 10mm figures? (Sometimes you can fudge)
Do they have medieval to 17th century?

Thank everyone!

D-Guy - I'm going to use these with 10mm multi-based troops (all my terrain is 15mm), but I wouldn't use them with singly-based 10mm.  They don't have 17th Century, but they're ranges are expanding.

V/R,
Jack

Really looks the business.

I keep getting flashbacks of the "Band of Brothers" Carentan episode :)

You absolutely nailed it - it truly does!

And Jack - thanks for the additional info - definitely hope they go 17th C. But if I actually do FPW.....
