Sarissa Design Absolutely Awesome Burrows & Badgers Terrain!
August 16, 2018 by brennon
Sarissa Precision is working with Oathsworn Miniatures on a range of awesome Burrows & Badgers themed terrain. Let's take a wander through the streets and see what awesome pieces have been created for what is, quite frankly, my favourite wargame at the moment.
We start with The Brock's Rest Tavern which would be a great focal point for an adventure. As you might imagine, yes, you can get inside this building and play within the interior. I have had some ideas for a proper tavern brawl between warbands and this would be a great place to begin that.
Next up we have Highclere Hall which would be a great place for your Rogues and Freebeasts to raid if they were so inclined. You know, robbing from the rich and all that!
Another of the larger structures is Duntrackin' which would make a good townhouse for your creatures to fight over.
I have so far played all of my games of Burrows & Badgers out in the wilderness but it would be awesome to see a fight take place amongst an urban environment as you're battling down alleyways and sneaking up on opponents with proper ambushes!
As well as these larger buildings the collection also offers up some smaller terrain pieces like Rumbolt's Place here which is a nice simple dwelling that you could hide away in the trees.
Matching that we also have 'Prickly' Jane's Cottage here. I think these would be nice and easy to get painted up for the tabletop. Whilst, of course, you could work on the work on the woodgrain finish for the timbers on the room I think you'd be alright with a coat of paint and a wash perhaps.
One of my favourite buildings from the collection is Brother Mortimer's Den. It has the same look and feel as some of the other smaller buildings with the added tower section for an enterprising sniper to make his nest.
Some additional terrain pieces have also been included as part of the collection that helps to create that idea of a living, breathing landscape. Here we have the Covered Market.
This Market has got to be the place where you put a stack of goodies and supplies that your warband is looking to raid. You could have one side, probably the Royalists, guarding it and making sure that it leaves on carts whilst the others are surging in to steal it before it's all gone!
We also have this very characterful Well.
You just know this needs to be included in a scenario where some treasure has been tied to the end of it and your warband has to run over and protect one of your stronger members as he hauls it out of the bottom on that rope.
I am very much sold on this terrain and might have to pick up a few of these kits for my home games!
What do you think?

Here’s a pic of the full set on a 4×2 table… ignore the random work furniture in the background! 😉

Looks superb @oathsworn – looking forward to its release so I can nab some 😉
NICE.
Looks great, I will certainly be picking some of these (let’s be honest all).
They look great! And is that your two-level board with the tunnels underneath, just to add an extra level of awesomeness to the terrain?
Yep! I do like to through in the odd tunnel fight! 🙂
Great looking buildings good many games/tables.
I’ll need those small houses for a hobbit settlement.
So these come pre painted?
I believe you have to paint them yourself
As @brennon says, you’ll need to get the paint brushes out, I’m afraid! They’re pretty easy to paint though…
Amazing job on those!
Gorgeous terrain…
Who says this has to be used for B&B? I can see this being used for Malifaux, Hobbit, etc. etc. etc.
I do! Grrr…
Ok, not really – I’ll be using it for other stuff as well! 😉
Beautiful. I especially like the low ones.
These are really great-looking kits. Although I still haven’t painted my mousehouse and other resin scenery, I’ll definitely be getting some of these.
Take my money now! 🙂
Well done @oathsworn.
I’ll be ordering these when they are available.
