The basic element is a single straight piece earthwork embankment. The frontage is 40mm so as to be compatible with the 15mm scale element frontage in most rules. The depth is 30mm, and the walkway on top is designed to accommodate a DBM infantry base.

The basic element also come in a version that has an access staircase in the back. Apart from this it is pretty much the same as 15FOR-A

This round corner embankment element is designed as to have no internal frontage so as to be compatible with DBM rules. It can be used on either side so it works as both a left or right hand corner.

The basic palisade element is a single straight rather generic piece designed to fit on the earthwork embankment. The frontage is 40mm too and it can be used also on its own for a very large number of different armies, up to and well in the dark ages. The thickness is only 4mm, but the casts have proven to be well sturdy.

It's quite hard to tell by the image, but this is the round version of 15FOR-D and is designed to fit the round corner 15FOR-C.

This is a strengthen palisade element, with stakes bounded together with ropes, in the manner that is often depicted in the Marian and Early imperial period. It's an alternative to 15FOR-D and it can also be used on its own as a fortification or as part of a BUA. It has four double stakes reinforcements placed at intervals on one side (the back if used atop 15FOR-A/B) but is level on the other side. The back is shown in the smaller image, click on it for a larger picture!

All the embankment elements are cut straight to match each other side by side. If you would like to end a line of fortifications in a better looking way you can use this end bits. Also suitable for the edges of a gap left in the fortification line to be used as gate. Each pair, one left and one right-handed are sold together as a single item.

This is a sawn timber walltop defense suitable for middle and late imperial period. It's another alternative to 15FOR-D and it is designed to be used atop 15FOR-A/B. The back is shown in the smaller image, click on it for a larger picture.

The entire gate subsystem is 3 elements wide (120mm), it is composed of 10 parts, requires assembly and is sold as a single (unpainted) item.


15FOR-I is priced at EURO€ 22.50

This module is an alternative single straight piece earthwork embankment to be used in place of 15FOR-A and 15FOR-B. The frontage is the same 40mm module, but the depth is just under 60mm, and the walkway on top is designed to comfortably accommodate a DBM artillery base.
This module can be used with any walltop style you prefer.

15FOR-L is priced at EURO€ 3.50

This is a strengthen palisade element, with stakes bounded together, but in a more crude manner which is more appropriate for dark ages and more barbaric armies in general. It's another alternative to 15FOR-D and it can also be used on its own for a number of different armies, including Ottoman Turks or as part of a BUA. The back is the same as the front.

This is a lighter palisade element, with smaller stakes bounded together with ropes, in the manner which would also be appropriate for several North African and Middle East armies of the biblical period. It's also another alternative to 15FOR-D and it can also be used on its own as a farmstead perimeter fortification, a fenced enclosure for animals, or as part of a BUA. The back is the same as the front.

15FOR-W is priced at EURO€ 16.50

This is yet another palisade module, this one made with sudes stakes bounded together with ropes, and half buried in the embankment. Sudes is Latin for stake or pike. They were part of the standard legionary equipment and presumably used as a perimeter defense of an encampment. Also termed valles, they were wooden stakes 4 to 5 feet long, tapered to points at both ends with a cut out "handgrip" in the middle. They may also have been used to create a palisade or picket defense in front of a position prior to an enemy's expected charge or attack. These stakes are often incorrectly termed Pila Muralis or "Wall Spear" which instead probably was a particularly heavy javelin made for throwing down from walls. Experiments that show them to be easily pulled out if used as a fence are all done by driving them into a finished rampart, but more likely they were inserted into the rampart as it was built and the soil packed around them, so that half their length was buried. This way they would still reach up beyond the bottom edge of a defender's shield, and be much harder for an attacker to pull out.
It's another alternative to 15FOR-D and it is designed to be used atop 15FOR-A/B or with 15FOR-AX.

This is another sudes fence module, but with more of the stakes left out of the ground, for those who prefer the classic interpretation.
It's another alternative to 15FOR-D and it is designed to be used atop 15FOR-A/B.

With a bit of literary license and considering the scale, they can be used also for Greek camps as well as for Polybian and earlier Roman armies.

These are solid tree trunk studded with iron spikes and used as a removable barrier to close a gap in a fortification line made of a consistent earthwork embankment. Model is 48mm long.
They are designed to use with 15FOR-S (may need a little filing to fit in the small indents on the side) but can be used also with 15FOR-5.
15FOR-4 are made of white metal (contains lead) and are sold in pairs, priced at EURO€ 1.50 per set of 2.

These are side supports for 15FOR-4 and 15FOR-6 to be used on their own as a removable barrier to close a gap in a fortification line without embankment.
15FOR-5 are made of white metal (contains lead) and are sold in packs of four, enough for a pack of either 15FOR-4 or 15FOR-6; priced at EURO€ 1.50 per set of 4.

These are a different model of solid tree trunk studded with iron spikes and used as a removable barrier to close a gap in a fortification line. These are 55mm long and thinner than 15FOR-4. They can also be used with 15FOR-S (may need a little filing to fit in the small indents on the side) but are designed specifically to be used with 15FOR-5.
15FOR-6 are made of white metal (contains lead) and are sold in pairs, priced at EURO€ 1.50 per set of 2.
Click on the small picture to see what the difference between 15for-4 and 15for-6:

This is a low, shallow base that allows the walltop palisade modules to be used on their own, as a more temporary kind of fortification, without the embankment.
It's the same 40mm wide frontage, but only 15mm deep, and it is designed to be the standard base for all the stockades used as field defenses, as such can be used with any of the walltops but is especially appropriate for Roman marching camps using 15FOR-1/15FOR-2 (Imperial) or 15FOR-3 (Republican), and for the upcoming Egyptian shield walls and Japanese stockades. Used with 15FOR-N makes a perfect fortified camp for Middle-Eastern, Biblical and Lybian-Phoenician armies. The upper side is already textured but can also be flocked to match the basing of your army!

This is a generic corner, fitted with a large wooden post, to connect any module based on 15FOR-AX at right angle.
It's 15mm square, and respects the no internal frontage requirement in the DBM rules.
When using low palisade the post can be easily trimmed down to fit the required height.
Pack contains two identical posts.

This is a New Kingdom Egyptian fence module, with the typical arrangement of large shields, probably the same one used as pavises in siege operations.
It's another alternative to 15FOR-D and it is designed to be used atop 15FOR-AX to create fortified Egyptian marching camps.

This is a gate pillar for New Kingdom Egyptian fortified marching camps. You can use 15for-5/6 barriers to close the gap or just leave it open as it is represented in NKE bas-reliefs.

15FOR-8 Pack contains two identical posts and it is priced at EURO€ 4.50.

This is an inverted corner to connect any module based on 15FOR-AX at right angle, basically it's the opposite of the TX module.
It's 40mm square, representing two TF joined at right angle and respecting the no internal frontage requirement in the DBM rules.
When using some type of stockade or palisade these may have to be trimmed short to join at the corner correctly.

This is a medieval-reinassance Japanese palisade fence module, with the typical arrangement of large bamboos, as depicted in several contemporary illustrations.
It's another alternative to 15FOR-D and it is designed to be used atop 15FOR-AX or QX to create fortified lines behind which arquebusiers can shoot while remaining outside the reach of cavalry, as in Nagashino, 1575.

This is the basic element for a separate ditch to be used on its own or with the 15FOR-A and 15FOR-AX embankments. It is a single straight piece of the standard 40mm frontage, so as to be compatible with the other modules. The depth is 15mm.
