Craft A Celtic Village & Palisade Fort With Sarissa Precision
April 13, 2021 by brennon
A new selection of terrain is now available from Sarissa Precision for those of you looking to build Celtic villages and protected forts. Earthen banks, solid palisade walls, gates and houses are available allowing you to create iconic scenes from Britain's history.
Palisade Fort // Sarissa Precision
This gives you an idea of exactly how the fort might look once you've assembled all of the pieces. All of the components that you see here can be sourced separately and as part of bundles allowing you to build smaller or larger Celtic settlements to suit your tabletop.

Each of the pieces within these kits is given additional detail here and there but the core of it is MDF. Both straight and curved sections are available for the fencing, earth banks and walls allowing you to make some really funky looking terrain.
Palisade Fort // Sarissa Precision
The modular nature of the fort means that you can change how it all looks between your games. As well as being modular, the terrain is also very gameable. There is plenty of space atop the banks to set your miniatures and sling stones at approaching enemies.

Card is used for the roof sections on the buildings and they can also be removed meaning that you can play around inside this settlement as well as outside it. I think this seems primed for a good Dark Age/Ancient clash between raiding warbands.
You could, of course, make a lot of the terrain you see here in a DIY fashion but I think these sets are neat. They give terrain-making novices like me a good starting point and offer up the core of what you need to get started. All you'd need is plenty of basing material and patience and you could make an excellent fort or village.
Will you be snapping these kits up? Maybe you'd like to get them individually?

This looks great and can be used for many settings like Romanic or euro Napoleonic wars or the American civil war of the top of my head.
