B'hoys Towne!
City Buildings for B'hoys!
or other Victorian-era Gaming
|
|
B'hoys Towne! , an easy set of 25-28mm cut-and-assemble
early Victorian city buildings from Studio 33 ,
is the perfect setting for gaming the meanest streets in old New
York, or any other city of the Nineteenth or early Twentieth
Century.
|
|
These full-color, heavy cardstock blocks of buildings have been
designed for authenticity and ease of assembly, with frontages of
between 9" and 10" and up to 9" in height.
Some are single structures, while others
represent two or three buildings joined in the typical "cheek
by jowl" urban fashion.
|
B'hoys' Towne! was designed to complement the
groundbreaking line of B'hoys!
figures in 28mm and the B'hoys!
rules. Gamers can now play with these Riotous Victorians where
they belong--on their own streets! But with little or no
modification, B'hoys Towne! buildings can also be used for
military or adventure gaming anywhere in the Victorian gaming
universe, from Birmingham to Barsoom. |

All Blocks are 2" deep and come with your choice of
cobblestone or dirt streets in a variety of widths and sidewalk
arrangements. A full set of B'hoys Towne will provide
approximately 180 linear inches of buildings and streets!
Buildings are in architectural styles befitting New York (and much
of Europe as well) in the first half of the 19th Century. Most
have optional signs designating them as a specific Dive, Flop
House, Sporting House, etc. as named in Herbert Asbury's seminal
work, The Gangs Of New York . Each Block comes with
a selection of 1840-1860 period posters and advertisements. There
are even images in some of the larger windows (such as
"Poole's Butcher Shop").
|
|
All Blocks have open backs for playability and come with extra
window sills, door frames, front steps, cornices, signs, or other
details to add more "depth" to the models.
(Street lights are NOT included, but more paraphernalia are in the
works.)
