Title: Pendraken Star Fort
Post by: pierre the shy on 07 August 2018, 09:53:31 AM

Is the star fort model shown in this 2012 blog still available?

http://bagrationsarmies.blogspot.com/2012/07/10mm-pendraken-star-fort.html

I suspect not after checking the current catalouge but worth asking anyway.

hoping to do the 1651 Battle of Worcester somewhere down the track once we get all our ECW stuff done.

Thanks for your assistance.

Not currently, the model was about 330mm square so it was a bit too big to ship and fragile at that size.  We're going to make a modular version instead so that folks can build larger/smaller star forts in either 4 or 5 star variations hopefully.

Ok I will keep an eye out for that appearing in due course.

Thanks as usual for your very quick response.

Cheers

A sconce of the sort which still exists at Newark would be good., especially if it could be roughly 10cm square!

Is that a sconce with jam and cream ?

I've tracked down a star fort made by Paper terrain in the states.

It's arrived and currently undergoing construction. I'll post pictures once finished

They produce it in 6mm 10mm 15mm formats

USD $30 postage $25. But I was refunded about $14 after they posted as the postage was obviously less than anticipated.

Fort was delivered in a week

I ordered the stone one but on reflection think the brick one in the image on the website looks better

Not as much as Monty Don is concerned about the pitiful level of pruning.

I'd forgotten they did that, happened to me once too. I was thinking of ordering some more stuff from them...

Any danger of a WW1/SCW trench system?  That would have to be modular too I think.

Definitely, we've had a few chats about it with John at Ironclad and he's got some ideas on the modular side of it.  I'll have a chat with him and see where we are with that but I don't think we'd be seeing anything until next year.
