The Definitive Rural Tactical Objective
The Renedra Ramshackle House stands as an elite tabletop feature, delivering the exceptional quality of UK-engineered hard plastic injection molding to your battlefield setups. This 1/56 (28mm) scale kit functions as a versatile, system-agnostic terrain asset optimized for historical conflicts spanning from the late 16th century to modern military skirmishes. It serves as a highly evocative centerpiece for Napoleonic & 19th C. tables—particularly for the American Civil War (ACW) and Wild West environments—as well as rural combat areas in The World Wars.
Molded in a durable gray hard plastic, the structure showcases extraordinary physical detailing designed to bring realism to any American countryside or rustic frontier settlement. The siding features deep, distressed wood-grain grooves, deteriorating roof shingles, and a dilapidated front porch perfect for offering tactical cover or acting as a high-value objective. Engineered to integrate smoothly alongside your Perry Miniatures farmsteads, this plastic model provides a permanent, robust solvent-weld when assembled with liquid plastic cement, ensuring far greater gaming-table durability than standard MDF or resin alternatives.
