During the many battles for cities on the Eastern Front the defenders used improvised barricades to block access to the streets and thoroughfares. These were used to slow the momentum of the attackers and as an anchor point for the defence. The barricade would slow or stop any enemy armour, making them vulnerable to attacks from the surrounding buildings.
A barricade was usually built to act as both an obstacle and as protection for the troops manning it. They took many different forms depending the material available to construct it. Many were made from rubble and stonework salvaged from the surrounding streets and buildings.
Felled lampposts and telegraph poles could also reinforce them. Sometimes cars, trucks, buses or city trams were used to build the barricade around. A knocked out tank made a particularly impressive barricade anchor, providing the defenders plenty of protection from rifle and machine-gun fire.
In Flames of War, a Street Barricade is modelled as a barrier up to 2in/5cm deep and up to 8in/20cm wide to cover the width of a street, building to building. If your street on your table is wider use two or more Street Barricades to span the width. An Infantry team moving across a Street Barricade must pass a Skill test (or test to Cross a Minefield if better) or immediately stop moving. Street Barricades are Impassable for all Tank and Gun teams. Street Barricades are Short Terrain and Bulletproof Cover.
