    Default 2mm Scale Naval Forts

    Seen on TMP from Brigare Models in the UK and very reasonably priced. Ideal for SGN

    Interesting... now we need somebody to make up fire-arc cards and Battery Logs for 'em.

    Oh, and to do a few from across the Channel, and maybe some Spanish coastal fortifications... :D

    Yes, those are good looking models. That was a good 'find', David.

    Some of there other buildings would be nice as well, both for SoG coastal towns and WoG scenarios.

    Thank you for the link, David.

    Brigade Models has some new forts available. Primarily American Civil War, but I think you could use them for other periods? They even offer the guns in white metal, but those are definitely from a later time frame.

    Thanks, Jim.

    Those are quite nice.

    Regarding our discussion on the other thread in relation to Ares ships, your post, here, is representative of another reason I probably won't buy more of the same; I want to purchase items like this for SoG and for ACW naval minis, not to mention all the table-top wargames, one of which is Devil's Cauldron on Arnhem. So many games to purchase; so many games to play.

    I guess I'm not familiar with the scales, the site keeps saying 2mm. Is that roughly 1/1000? Any idea how it looks with SoG ships?

    According to Brigade they are scaled to 1/1000.

    I have a set on order (well two of them plus the guns, Rod Langton already does a Fort Pulaski and I have two, a third seemed excessive!)

    That Fort Pulaski looks tough with all those cannons. Imagine them all firing red-hot shot.
