  1. If it helps it would take 10 men about 4 hours to set up the basics for this particular arrangement.
  2. Not specifically Wally although seeing this thing may encourage attackers to go somewhere else or severely slow them down making them easier targets, although in some situations may make them less easy
  3. I see what you mean, not specifically only a part of it would offer minimal protection
  4. Lauren spikes yes, pyramids no, entanglement yes, view from above yes
  5. Sort of but no barbed wire, but there are multiple structural impediments.
  6. Welcome Giuseppe I'm in daily contact with Italy. Helping a friend in San Macrio, Lucca about to launch a Land Rover book. It is bi-lingual but most of the book consists of photos, diagrams & tables of information. http://shop.duccieditore.com/index.php/shop/libri/land-rover/land-rover-half-ton-detail I don't know if you take Land Italia Magazine but I see I have got 6 pages in there with my vehicles. Although I don't know what the article says
  7. Yes Wally nearly there Would be a challenge for troops & horses.
  8. Andy sorry you got buried in the rush. I saw your post on the email notification but didn't find it here until Lauren pointed the way. Thanks Lauren. Andy, turf - yes, what's important is the structure in front of it
  9. More riddles No cages, but it is for keeping something out
  10. AndyM where are you? You posted a suggestion & it's gone but what I remember of it you were half right
  11. Lauren I can't keep up, nope not water foul or fresh. Although either may have no doubt had a beneficial effect.
  12. Lauren I think you've got plumbing on your mind. Water is not an integral part of it.
  13. Nope not a roof or any sort of covering
  14. :rofl: Actually it probably would have done the job very well Wally, but this had a much more tactical purpose.
  15. Lauren nope this an outdoor arrangement.
  16. They might have used something like this but not specific to this conflict.
  17. Not a deliberate water gathering mechanism Bernard, but I expect a fair bit of water would get trapped in it.
  18. Wally yes good bit of clue watching & deduction This is 1883
  19. Nope not that. It actually pre-dates three things you have mentioned
  20. Ah box kites, I never had much success with those. No its not that Lauren nor signalling
  21. I don't think horses would like this at all. Very likely used in India but would be used worldwide or Empire wide.
  22. A good thought & I can see what you mean, but these are not storage 'tanks' either.
