A lot has happened in a month. The wall is now of a suitable height to deter Zombies, shambling or otherwise. De Fence budget (see what I did there?) costed in searchlights to allow work to continue into the night if needed. They kick out a massive 50 watts apiece. I’m still waiting for machine guns though.
The right hand side last two bays are now finished, with creasing tiles to keep the wall dry, and a cement cap. The pillar is at creasing tile height, and if 1:100 scale, would be a mighty 190 metres tall ( or just under 1,900 hamburgers laid end to end, if you are American). I’m making the most of unseasonably mild weather to crack on with building, so wargaming is still on the back burner for a while. Normal service will be resumed as soon as the bad weather comes.
The creasing tiles are laid and the wall finished on bays 7 and 8 (the two right hand bays).
Colour me impressed by your mighty works.

Can’t be too careful, Ashley. I’ve seen how high zombies can jump!

Why thank you, kind Sir!
True Scale has its advantages. If I drop a brick, it doesn’t roll under the desk and I can find it on the floor.

Now all you need is the bunkers and the tank traps to complete the “Not quite Mechanised line”.

Nice work Chris but I think a couple of gun turrets are essential

Did you have 8.8cm Flak in mind or the sort of twin linked Autocannon that Aspen Prison had to guard Riko in the Stallone version of Judge Dredd?
