Created by Mandertory Miniatures to expand and complement their initial Bocage set 1, this new set (inventively known as Bocage Set 2!) provides you with end pieces, bends, angled corners and even a ruined cowshed!
This will allow you to create irregular shaped fields and hedgerows – ideal for use as bocage in the Normandy countryside or as hedgerows in many countries (they’d be great for use in what of scenarios where the Germans had managed to invade Britain and the green and pleasant land became a battlefield…).
Fully painted and foliaged, these sets are designed to be used straight from the box. All you need to do is plug the trees into the hedgerows and you’re ready to set up your battlefield!
These highly detailed, ready to play hedgerows are perfect for recreating the dense, claustrophobic bocage as the Germans fought a rearguard action against the Allied invasion on D-Day and beyond.
Each section is a finely-detailed pre-painted resin hedgerow with attached clump foliage and separate trees (easier to store!)
Bocage is a high bank of earth and stones with hedges and trees growing up through them. Over time the stones are entangled in foliage making them a very difficult to penetrate obstacle and the perfect environment for the forces of the Third Reich to punish the incoming Allies! So much so that an American engineer developed a hedgerow cutter that would bear his name. The Cullin Prong was fitted to the front of tanks, so they could take on the enemy lurking in cover behind these all but inpenetrable natural obstacles by bursting through and allowing the accompanying infantry to engage.
As you’ll no doubt agree, these two beautiful bocage sets add a whole new dimension to your battlefield and being ready painted you can spend more time painting miniatures and playing games!
