Dungeon decor


I picked up Artifacts Set 2 for Mage Knight Dungeons on the secondary market, and I really like the look of these prepainted pieces. I plan on using them for terrain and/or objectives for Melee/Wizard, Frostgrave, Ghost Archipelago, and similar games. 

You can never have too much scatter terrain in your skirmish games, and this set even came with some rules for special game effects that I will try to port over to my own scenarios.

As you can see from my Warhammer Saurus hero (used as a Heritor for Ghost Archipelago), these castings are the right scale and style for dungeon crawls. I hope to see them in action soon.

The new guys

I decided my minis collection needed some filling out, so I purchased these guys along with the hobbitses.
They are all Mage Knight figures, and you may or may not encounter some of them when roaming the halls of my very own dungeon.

Gnoll what I'm talkin about

In my recent session of old-school Dungeons & Dragons, the adventurers came across a wounded gnoll.  I have a ton of prepainted minis that I'm using for the game (mostly from Heroscape), including orcs, goblins, and bugbears, but digging through the container, I couldn't find an actual gnoll. 

I proxied him with no problem, but I was on the lookout for a gnoll mini when I hit the game stores last weekend.  Reaper has a gnoll mini in its Bones line, but that figure was huge even compared to other heroic 28-30mm minis, so I passed on it.  Later, when I  came across these Mage Knight gnolls on eBay for a cheap price, I went ahead and grabbed them.  It was a good deal--and after all, that wounded gnoll may have friends.

The two towers

I won these towers as prizes at separate Hordes of the Things tournaments.  They're Mage Knight Castle Keeps, and one of them by itself would make a nice stronghold for any "good guy" fantasy army for HotT or the pair of them would work as terrain for Song of Blades and Heroes (they might also work for Mage Knight, but I've never played that game). 

I should bust these toys out of the packaging and actually use them in a game some time.  Anyone else keep stuff sealed up when you should be using it for your games?
