Thanks JP and Liam!

Here's the lady's pet and a group photo ... I need to think of names but I'm leaning towards Forstgrave Necromancer and Apprentice? Could be the start of a warband.

Also some papercraft tombs just because, still from crooked staff publishing!

Thank you gents! I like em too!

Just set up the second scenario, with new carpet  ;D and a different deck of cards ... hope the lady of the lake has blessed my party!

WISH me luck.

Thanks Bloggard! The matt bellow although very nice has too much going on ... its a bit distracting and overwelming. I was longing for some green! These carpet puzzle pieces were so cheap ... maybe i can dirty them up a bit somehow to give them a bit of depth without being too detailed.

 :o

Thank's a lot! That is high praise indeed coming from the creator, and your games have been especially great to get through the boredom of staying home during the coronavirus!

They really are useful and look good enough! Apparently you can wash them too ...

Work has come back with a vengeance this week, all I had time to do since last update is a couple of unfinished Oathmark goblin test models. I resized them with GIMP which changed the file type, let's see if they still show up!

the end of measurements !

played dark souls board game at a friends place last week and they just put a dot where people can stand ... so i made a template for dotting the centers of a 1 inch hex pattern on those mats (they are 30 cm squares but the puzzle transitions made me think for a while) This is really gonna speed up play!

Now that is a handy idea.
I should be painting right now.

Thanks Corporal!

I'm having a lot of fun with it ... it opens up lots of possibilities for house-rules as well ... monsters cover three dots so some areas might be too tight for them to pass through but they can block passage better too (bridges and tunnels come to mind/ and giants covering 6 dots) which works ... I'm thinking of adding a spear that has a "range" for support and that can also have longer "reach' for forcing combat.

Hex is inconvenient for making buildings but there are ways around that too I think. like square grid in buildings (with special rules maybe advantaging daggers and penalty for pole/2 handed weapons to represent they are more cumbersome in tight places) OR break buildings and terrain pieces in 'rooms' where one action moves you one room away like on a zombicide map and you can place your model anywhere in that room or fight anyone who is already in that room ... possibilities ...

All you need is to determine the entry points of these terrain peices from the main hex mat ... hum ...

Anyway here they are piled up, spread out and in action view; Do you think the dots distract a bit too much or are they easy enough to ignore?
