Castillo de Los Tres Reyes del Morro

 

This is the 1/2400th scale Morro Castle resin terrain piece from Tumbling Dice that I ordered last week and very impressive it is too. The castle itself is the larger model with the lighthouse / tower, while the other two fortifications are presumably other parts of the defences of Havana, although I have been trying to work out what they actually are. The ship is a large gunboat from the Tumbling Dice Victorian range, in this case the Peruvian gunboat Pilcomayo, which should give a good idea of scale. This is a really nice model and not just suitable for naval games, as I can see it working well for 2mm scale land warfare as well, especially late sixteenth to early nineteenth century conflicts. I will base mine and use it with my existing coastal terrain or possibly incorporate all three elements into an island terrain feature or some sort.
