So the folks over at Spiral Arms Studios, the people responsible for Malstroms Edge and the Stacka Rack, have a new UK based Kickstarter going for 28mm hard plastic siege engines called Ancient Realms:
“Throughout the ages, warlords, raiders and conquerors have sought bigger and better ways to wage war. As defenses grow and improve, more destructive weapons are required to bring them down again.”
The kick Starter’s initial goal objective are two plastic kits: a ballista for those wanting to fling giant crossbows bolts into the sky.
And the dreaded mangonel that is favorite of cinema:
In addition they have two unlock able stretch goals planned a battering ram and a trebuchet:
They are made to work with more “Historical/True scale” 28mm sleek proportion miniatures which if you are like me and prefer to build your fantasy armies with historical and less chunky minis is a plus.
However as you can see they will work fine with chunkier miniatures like these Frostgrave undead cultists.
I can see both of these working for many fantasy and historical battles from the epic siege of Helm’s Deep to the very real sieges in the Reconquista.
