Razor Wire Terrain

Didn't take too long.

This is the effect i was looking for...
or this...

Counts as area effect terrain so you can't squeeze through the little gaps between stands/posts.

Turns out there are official rules for razor wire (c/o knights world list)...
Fortified Position Effects Table
Terrain: razor wire
Infantry: dangerous terrain
Vehicle: no effect
War Engine: no effect

If there weren't any i was going to make it impassible terrain for infantry and ignore for av/we... but dangerous terrain works for me.
I am planning (for my own games) to not attach the terrain as an 'army specific element', but instead use it as a general terrain pieces - probably in conjunction with other terrain pieces (as per example above).


Quick build diary (in reverse order)...
The official razor wire pack i bought had 2 meters of wire. This only lasted for the 2 small sticks and 2 of the medium sticks. The remaining sticks used the left over tree wire which i twisted using an electric drill. while not exactly the same look it's close enough. the wire is also 'shinier' (which i will treat with null oil or agrax) and springier (which should make no difference at all). yhay for left overs. still a tiny bit of painting left to do to conceal the superglue white spots.

Adding sand before texture paint goes on...

Just mdf cut into strips, then round the edges and drill/glue chopped-up sprue sticks.

Until next time...
