Hey Sgt-

Give me a couple of days to see if I can upscale the 15mm to 18mm. The native files are 600dpi I think so resolution should not be a problem. The only hitch as I can see is that the 15mm one-piece tower wall is almost as big as a single piece of 8.5 x 11 card stock. 18mm might not fit. Neverthelss, I'll give it a try and let you know.

I have this plan to do this tower in 28-32mm, with each floor accessible from the side with pull-away walls. We'll see though.

Also coming up, are peasant huts to go with the Norman Watchtower, and in 28mm-32mm.

The Norman Watchtower is typical of the type of local defensive structures the Normans built throughout their lands in France and England during the 11th Century. Though not as large and powerful as a full-fledged castle, these small towers were capable of supporting a modest garrison for the purpose of dealing with local bandits or even small groups of seafaring raiders from Scandinavia or Frisia. They were also the center of law and order among the local peasantry.

The Norman Watchtower is a downloadable PDF card model. A single download ($6.00 USD) includes models in 15mm, 10-12mm, and 6mm scales. Please visit our site to view more downloadable castles and other gaming aids.
