The chart below lists types of buildings and suggests roughness values and Damage points for them. As many gamers make their own buildings you may prefer to tailor each building's values to its appearance.
Type of Building | Toughness | Damage Pts |
Mud or straw huts, light wooden shacks/outhouses | 5 | 2 |
Timber or brick house or log built cabin | 7 | 5 |
Stone house | 9 | 5 |
Stone tower or fortification | 10 | 10 |
Heavily reinforced & barred door | 6 | 1 |
Secured fortress gate | 8 | 5 |
HaIf a building sustains its full quota of Damage points it collapses. Models inside a collapsing building must make their basic armour saving roll or they are trapped and slain. Models which pass their armour save may be moved outside the building.
We have included values for a variety of buildings as well as heavy doors and fortress gates, as you may wish to experiment with games where defenders shut the doors of their cower or castle whilst defenders attempt to batter down the defenses (see also the Siege rules in the Appendix section). Ordinary domestic doors are not considered to offer any significant defence.
