The next item in my neverending series of Battlefield in a Box prepainted terrain reviews – the “Wartorn Village Ruined Bridge”. It’s labelled as 25-35mm terrain, but I think it does still work well enough at 15mm, as you’ll see down the page.
Box packaging is prety standard for these sets – the bridge is wrapped in bubble wrap inside the box.
The bridge itself looks pretty decent. As usual with these sets, it could use a little bit of dust and dirt added, as well as a bit of greenish moss underneath due to it being a bridge.
And here we see it mated to the Wartorn Village Cobblestone Road set I reviewed recently As we can see, it fits with the roads perfectly.
Let’s see how it goes alongside some 15mm Flames of War tanks. It looks pretty good, I think. Sure, the bricks of the bridge are giant slabs in comparison, but it still reads fine to me.
And with a selection of Space Marines it also looks fine if you’re wondering how this stuff would look with 40k (or AoS) scaled models. A Dreadnought on a 60mm base fits on it just fine.
Lastly, here’s the bridge with the more realistically-scaled 25-28mm Lord of the Rings SBG games. As you can see, the slight scale change from 40k doesn’t make a difference, and these fantasy models perfectly fit with this little bridge.
At reader request, I’ve taken a pic showing the size of this bridge, both with a compact disc (It’s much bigger!) and also a tape measure with both Inches and Cenitimetres. This bridge is just over 6″ long, or about 5 1/2 cm.
Nice review mate, the bridge looks good, just wondering the narrower bombed out roads you showed earlier how do they fit against the bridge, does it match to between the pillars.

Good call, Dave – next time I get out there to take photos (hopefully this weekend) I’ll check on that and update the post.

Dave Stone beat me to that question about the narrow cratered roads! Bridge looks good mind you! 🙂

Some measurements or, better yet, a picture of it sitting in a 130mm circle, would be really appreciated.

Thanks for this – looking for some suitable basing for some huge bases.
