That looks just like a non-ordered Nashorn transport!

NIk,

I would have thought that you would have gone with further variants of the Nashorn next, or even its larger cousin before moving onto terrain pieces.

Looking forward to seeing this take shape. Nashorn again looks great.

Cheers
Aaron

Going back to the Nashorn once metal test pieces are available is still on my list ...

Looking good Nik, how is this going to work out? Do you intend to trade for such things again? If so would it not be better to make a single wall and then reproduce it?

How the final thing will look like is not decided - current idea is to have three parts that can be combined to build a bulwark of various heights. Maybe there's also an option to have wall sections ...

This will be awesome.  Will you be making the defensive walls too?  It would be awesome to have a proper-sized imperial defence grid.

Will it be big enough to place Epic infantry on the roof?

Update: Started to work on the middle section...

My estimations tell me that it will not be possible to fit an E:A strip (4cm x 1.2cm) on the roof, however if a gun is placed there it would not fit anyway. Square bases should fit (without gun on top that is).

We could therefore go into one of two directions:

a) make a properly scaled version

b) make a somewhat bigger version with options for infantry on top

I'd be tempted to make it double-wide, and deep enough that two units can be placed up on the top.

You could make a double tall tower section with room for a square base on top, and attach the tower to a single wall-like extention (with similar structural characteristics that would have just enough rome for a 12x40mm base (but not enough for a square base).
