Catapult Squad (Qiji 2304)

About this set

KEEPPLEY 2304 Catapult Squad sits in the Castle line under THE WAR OF GLORY, and the box lists 152 pcs, 6+ and a 2/5 difficulty, so it builds like a light medieval siege piece. The palette runs blue, yellow, grey and brown: a wood-brown frame with grey structural parts and blue-yellow accents on the spokes and supports, which gives it a clear faction look on the shelf. The core is a catapult with oversized wheels that read noticeably larger than standard ones, and the launch mechanism is a listed feature. Build the throwing arm and launch mechanism first, then mount the chassis, because once the big wheels are on, the model rolls and lining up the axle holes gets fiddly. At 152 pcs and 2/5 difficulty the steps stay short, making it a good first castle build or a small entry piece for the THE WAR OF GLORY range.
