On campaign - fortifications

 Having decided on a Victorian campaign, based on the war scares of the 1860's, the action moves to Kent - and Chatham, and possibly Dover.  The 'Chatham Lines' were originally developed as a Napoleonic defensive position, but by mid century they were the site of extensive sapping and mining exercises.  Earlier, they had staged large mock battles - as described by Charles Dickens in the Pickwick Papers.  

So, it was time to play around with some forts - which is indeed time never wasted ...

The Chatham Lines will need to expand to include a Redan and some serious obstacles, and the besiegers will need to make full use of the depth positions - the flower bed and pigsty.  

All to play for!
