Pictures from Session 82, Felltower 55

Three of my players took pictures on Saturday and sent them to me. I didn't have time to edit them and sort them and post them until now.

I'll have more game notes later, but for now, here are the mini pictures.



Here are several views of the fight near the "orc hole."

And roughly chronological, the fight at the intersection:

In those latter ones especially you can see:

- some very old "wolf" minis I got from . . . somewhere, mostly painted. Not painted well, or at least the paint jobs didn't hold up well. I retouched, washed, and touched up those minis plus gave them new eye and mouth paint jobs and better bases. Those are "devil wolves."

- I have two Reaper Bones Owlbears, thanks to trading for one from Mark Langsdorf. They say thank you, Mark.

- the orcs are a usual mix of Reaper Bones, Reaper DHA, Wargames Factory, Heritage, Black Tree, TSR - all modified with hats, capes, weapons, sheaths, etc. from GW. The orc spearman with a black hat is one of my favorites - one of my players calls him a "Southie Orc."

- the various rings denote stunning, pollen cloud effects, and so on.

  1. It's interesting to see you do the same thing our group does: tossing different color rubber bands on minis to represent special effects. They make it much easier to track if the zombie that has faerie fire was killed or was that a different one, and the location of 1 square/hex persistent effects like moonbeam or flaming oil.

    I used to have a GM that used colored miniature poker chips. They stack and fit under the base of medium-sized WotC prepainted minis almost perfectly. You wouldn't be able to use them as easily since your pewter minis have a variety of base shapes and sizes which would probably cause them to topple frequently.
