Urban Battlefield Hasty Barricade Fences Using Scrap Metals 25-28 mm Scale War Game Terrain

War zones are pure chaos. Nothing is very neat on the battlefield, whether it be in the middle of an urban population center or in the middle of a distant jungle. Troops are often forced to use whatever material is lying about the debris to fashion needed constructs.

Here are some simple urban barricades made from bits of scrap metal sheets.

A simple post fence provides the support skeleton.

Various metal sheets are then salvaged from the surrounding debris to form a skin, giving defending troops some degree of protection.

Easy to throw together with available materials, these fences can be erected throughout a battlefield in a reasonably short time, creating obstacles that enemy fighters must overcome.

These barricades are designed for 25 to 28-mm scale miniatures. Each terrain piece measures about 6 inches (150 mm) in length.

New Additions to the Mad Scientist's Laboratory Equipment 25-28 mm Scale Scenery Pieces

It has been awhile since I showed any of the lab equipment for the mad scientist, so here are a few recent scenery pieces.

First up is a larger containment unit:

The tall tower allows the scientist to capture and process various experimental gases, energy plasmas, and so on.

The unit is approximately 4-3/4 inches (120 mm) tall, with a base measuring 3 x 3 inches (75 x 75 mm).

Next we have a lab power generator station with a pair of energy pylons and control console.

Finally, here are a few small lab units.

All are designed for use with 25 to 28mm scale game miniatures. In addition to the mad scientist's laboratory, these scenery pieces can be used in various science fiction and horror game settings.

Shades of Stonehenge Stone Arch Megalith Standing Stones Fantasy War Game Terrain

The wind blows relentlessly across the desolate open plain.  A rocky megalith rises from the lonely ground.

In the spirit of the historical Stonehenge site in England, a heavy stone lintel rests atop two thick rock pillars.

Obviously man-made, but why was it constructed?

Perhaps carved by human cultists as part of a shrine to some Elder God?

Or maybe it marks a center for powerful ley lines used in magical incantations.

Then again, it may be an astronomical device used to mark the passing of the seasons.

This terrain piece could act as a landmark in your gaming world.  It would fit in with many game genres including fantasy, horror, pulp and even science fiction set on another planet.

Scaled for 25 to 28 mm miniature figures. The piece stands about 3-1/4 inches (65 mm) tall with a base measuring 5-1/2 x 4 inches (140 x 100 mm).

Ruined Buildings Wall Sections Post Apocalypse War Game Terrain

Where once a thriving community stood, only the dry husks of dead buildings remain in the post apocalyptic landscape.  Damaged by blast and fire, only bare walls stand in the strewn rubble.

These war game terrain pieces represent the remaining walls and foundations of buildings.  They offer some small cover to survivors and warring troops.

The first piece stands approximately 2 inches (50 mm) tall on a base that is 7-3/4 x 6 inches (200 x 150 mm).

The second piece is about 2 inches (50 mm) tall.  The base is 7-1/2 x 6 inches (195 x 150).

Designed for use with 25 to 28 mm scale miniatures.  These terrain pieces would fit in with many modern, post apocalypse, horror and science fiction war games.

Sacrificial Stone Platform Fantasy War Game Terrain 25 - 28 mm Scale

A constant wind blows across the barren rocks of an desolate plain.  Flowing among the stony outcroppings, the air currents give rise to strange and foreboding wails, or is it the voices of lost souls roaming the bleak landscape?

This terrain piece depicts a flat platform carved from a rock outcropping.  The stone appears to have been carved by some sentient hands (not necessarily human).  Lines crisscross the platform's face.

Perhaps it marks the location of intersecting ley lines of magical power that cut across the countryside.

The spot may have been selected as a sacrificial site by those seeking to harness the arcane powers of the ley lines.

The only signs of life are small clusters of lichen growing in the crevices of the base rock.

This terrain piece measures approximately 1-1/4 inches (30 mm) tall.  The base is about 4-1/2 x 4 inches (115 x 105 mm).  It could be used as a magical site in any fantasy, horror or pulp adventure role-playing game or war game setting.

Urban Rubble Piles Terrain for Post Apocalyptic War Games

In the post apocalyptic world, the cities will be strewn with rubble. Combat operations (whether from house-to-house fighting or large scale bombardment) devastate population centers. Even non-combat catastrophic events such as a zombie plague would leave behind scattered debris resulting from mass panic, uncontrolled accidental fires and neglect of safety systems (deteriorating gas lines for example). Post apocalypse, many urban areas would look, well, simply apocalyptic.

Piles of rubble become the new scenery across the urban landscape. Spikes of building components (building blocks, support I-beams, timbers, re-bar, pipes, and so on)  rise out of the debris, frequently giving the piles a look like the skeletal carcasses of large creatures. Often fire has scoured the ruins, leaving a layer of ash clinging to the rubble.

In game terms these piles can provide protective cover for survivors moving among the ruins. Scattered onto roads, they also become obstacles to movement, particularly for vehicles.

Worse, the piles of rubble provide potential ambush sites for the survivors.

These terrain pieces are designed for 25 to 28mm scale miniature war games. They range in size from 5 to 7 inches (125 to 175 mm) in length.

Underground Missile Silos Launch Complex in 25-28mm Scale

I have been busy recently completing a multi-part commission order.  Among the 25mm scale terrain pieces is this set of four underground missile silos.

The overall complex consists of four separate silo stations. Each station controls two missile silos and has its own access hatch leading to an independent launch command center.

Each station includes one silo with the protective hatches open and the missile raised to a launch position in preparation for the final launch commands.

The individual silo stations measures about 6 x 6 inches (150 x 150 mm).
