3D Printed Fantasy Ruins Reflect The Era
Understanding when the medieval era was and what went on, is the best way for a game player to learn how to assemble their medieval 3D printed wargaming models.
Knowing more than enough about this age will ensure your battlefields are authentic as well as realistic. The medieval age lasted from the fall of the Roman Empire, roughly 500 AD to just before the Renaissance which took place in 1500 approx.
It was a time when nations were fighting for land, power, and control which means a myriad of battles took place in those 1000 years. That gives you an unlimited amount of battles to assemble your 3D-printed tabletop game terrain.
Here are some 3D printed tabletop game figures to get you started on assembling the right pieces for your medieval battlefield games.
Assembling Your Medieval Game Pieces
1. The Ruins
Throughout the medieval era, far too many battles took place and the countryside was littered with ruins. Making your game more realistic and authentic means adding the following ruins to your 3d printed tabletop game terrain.
- Ruined Well - The Small Village- Paintable and a very small size. It won’t take up too much space in your game
- Ruined Dog House- The medieval population had pets and this ruined dog house keeps your game real
- Ruined Norman Stone Keep- These buildings were not limited to just Normandy or Britain. Ruined buildings permeated the landscape even if they were not Norman-built.
- Ruined Norman Stone House- The same goes for these houses as homes were the first to be destroyed when invaders came.
- Ruined Columns- The Romans were great builders and the remnants of their civilization are found throughout medieval Europe.
- Ruined Fountain- Not every village had one but some did. It would be destroyed in the war like other structures would.
2. The Buildings
Not everything ended up in ruins. Many invaders were merely interested in conquest and not total destruction. Here are some of the game pieces that invaders may have left from time to time
- Viking Hall- Some buildings were too valuable to destroy. Not to mention they were too expensive to rebuild.
- Viking Village House 3- Homes were needed to shelter invading troops. It makes sense that some invading armies would leave homes standing without harming them
- Stone Medieval Bridge- Defenders may destroy these to aid their defence. The invading armies wouldn’t as they needed the bridges to facilitate their invasion and troop movement
- Knarr - Merchant Viking Ship- Ships always come in handy whether one is escaping an invading army or pursuing fleeing defenders.
- Modular Viking Palisade- Walls were disposable and could be rebuilt if needed.
- Modular Viking Palisade - Gate Only- Gates were one of the first defences to go if they were not strong enough to withstand the onslaught. If they were, then they were reused after the battle was over.
3. The Accessories
- Stone Wall Set- Stones are hard to destroy and they could be reused by either defenders or attackers after the battles to rebuild walls, homes, or other buildings.
- Wooden Pier Walkway - Plank- always essential material to build piers or reach boats anchored close to shore. One always needs wood planks for building a variety of structures.
- Wooden Pier Walkway for Strolling- Wood piers for anchoring boats or fishing come in handy in making your medieval villages authentic as well as add to the realism of your game.
- Viking Lychgate- Covered walkways were prevalent in medieval days. They too add to your realistic approach to your game playing and help keep your villages authentic looking as well as the game more interesting.
- The Well - The Small Village- A vital part of any medieval village. A good water supply ensures that your villagers can remain healthy and have the fortitude to continue defending their homes.
