I would like to know the exact dimensions of the various GW fortifications to use as a guide towards scratch building my own. Can someone do the legwork on this and get some measurements? I did a search on this, but didn't find the exact numbers.

Bastions are about 6x6.

Aegis Defense lines are about 5.5" for the big sections and about 2" for the little ones. And about 1" at their shortest and 2" at their tallest. Chest height to a space marine.


No idea about the FoR. I know the tower is 14" tall.

The Defense tower base is 2.5inches tall by 5 inches in a square. The next level is stepped in at the corners by 3/4 of an inch and is 3inches tall.

Plus I'm pretty sure bastions have a third dimension. Can someone do the measuring for real?

The landing pad looks super easy to scratch build.

I've been contemplating how to make Eldar and Tyranid versions of the the defense line and tower

This thread in P&M covered most of the bases, recently.

I could tell you the exact dimensions, but then I wouldn't be able to tell you anything about the momentum.
