4x walls
4x towers
99$
It seems this is the best bang for your buck if you want to be able to play the watch tower and siege scenarios? Have any of you guys had any better finds?
It seems a single tower any where else runs 30-50 bucks.
P.S would really love a gothic type castle i could use in 40k or fantasy.

It's fine if you just want a quick piece on the table.
Personally, I'd rather spend that money on some Hirst Arts molds and plaster. Infinite possibilities for setup with those.

You can find those kits elsewhere for less than $99, making it even better.
But I've seen plenty of people model watchtowers, mostly to make them super high and abuse Fozzrik's Folding Fortress.

Just tell them that if they draw LoS from a certain point on the tower, that they have to measure from that point, too. Once they start measuring ranges on a steep angle, they'll change their mind about the height.
