DIRT CHEEP STRONGHOLDS Earthworks Basic Set

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Now, new MicroTactix Dirt Cheep Strongholds Basic Setdoes for earthworks defenses what Dirt Cheep Keeps did for stoneworks! For centuries, wood and earthworks fortifications and strongholds have been used to defend against attack -- from ancient times up through the First World War and beyond. Now artist Gary M. Williams, MicroTactix Master of Cardstock Construction, brings you a modular set of earthworks that you will be proud to display on your gaming table. They're big, beautiful, easy to assemble -- and still, of course, Dirt Cheep!

Print them yourself from easy-to-use PDF files on almost any color inkjet printer and have incredibly detailed and lifelike constructions for a tiny price. They're sturdy enough for your heavy metal miniatures, light enough to store and cart around easily, and cheap enough that you can make all you want without denting your budget.

Like our other Dirt Cheep construction sets (Dirt Cheep Dungeons?, Dirt Cheep Caverns?, etc.), Dirt Cheep Strongholds is composed of easy-to-construct basic segments that can be put together in a nearly-infinite number of ways. You can make your defenses as big and compex as you can imagine, for pennies. The Dirt Cheep Strongholds Basic Set (MTX-DCST1001) is a complete modular package for producing earthworks defenses of any size and complexity. The set includes modular earthworks wall and corner units to build defenses as big as you can imagine, and gates to allow (or deny) access inside. Archer shields, gabions, and chevaux-de-frise provide further protection. Lookout towers give your lookouts and archers a bird's-eye-view of the enemy. Finally, there's the massive wooden stronghold building itself, one of the most impressive constructions we've offered yet! You get all of this in the Basic Set for only $8.00.

Get a hint of the attractiveness of these models by downloading the FREE Dirt Cheep Strongholds Field Smithy! The field smithy features a small smith's forge building, accessories, figures, and a sample fir tree from our friends at Penguin Labs.

Use Dirt Cheep Strongholds with any miniature figures in the 25 -30mm range. Combine them with our Dirt Cheep Keeps stoneworks, and Vyllage-on-the-Cheep Castle Ruins, Ancient Ruins, and other building sets for even more possibilities -- it's all designed to work together!

I really loved this set, as it can be used for all time periods up to the last part of the 19th century. Great color, scale and design, it was very simple to put together yet appeared to be a detailed complex structure. You won't be dissappointed. This [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
