Mage Knight 2D & 3D terrain PDF's free

[SgtSlag]

I did a search on Mage Knight PDF terrain, and I found more than I expected:  link.  I had several of these items downloaded, many a year ago.  I found more on this website, MageKnight.net, than I knew existed.

There are 2D dungeon maps, allowing a variety of setup's to be created from 29 different pages.  They're a bit dated, but free is free, Baby!

Of particular interest to me, was the very large Gatehouse, and the Longboat, which includes eight pages of war banners and flags, at the end of the PDF.

I am currently building models of the Tower, using 2mm chipboard, rather than cardstock.  I have two versions of this tower, rather than the singular version offered on this site (I have an older version which includes a three-story, and a four-story tower).

These PDF's are of interest both for fantasy RPG games, as well as fantasy miniatures games.  Cheers!

Did not know these existed- thanks for sharing.

Now, on to a photo of a now OOP model set, Cities-on-the-Cheap.  These are the same buildings (one on the far left is missing its chimney -- lost in the shuffle of cut-off's), but there are two colors of roofs to use with them.

I made more progress on one of the MK Towers, the one with the over-sized topper.  The roof pieces for this model are complex, and though I found the instructions that have a photo of the completed models, I still can't see how they go together.  Hoping to finish up all of the MK Towers this weekend.

Ran through my PDF building files, and I discovered several models from my Fat Dragon Games Basic Keep set, which I have never printed…  Time to remedy that!  One of them has stained glass windows, just different colored panels.  It should work as a generic temple for my games.  Cheers!

A new building finished -- a Mage Knight Gate Tower (quite large).  Here are some images of the finished model:  front door entrance (only entrance as designed, but a 2nd, heavy-duty steel door will be added to the rear side); rear view.  Note that the figures shown are 25mm-28mm, for size reference purposes.

The construction techniques on this model were challenging.  The walls did not span the full distance on any side of the octagon upper roof!  I had to trim off some of the dressing stones around the outside border of the floor section, to allow the walls to line up properly.  I may have had Adobe Reader set to scaling, rather than full size, not sure.  The crenelation pieces had to be trimmed down to fit accurately, as well.  To further muddy the waters, this model was designed to be printed on 110# cardstock, not pasted to 2mm thick chipboard.

The side plates were warped when I started, so I used some extra round wooden dowels left over from other projects, to remove the warping.  I Hot Glued the dowels to the chipboard plates, pressing them against the warped chipboard, until the Hot Glue hardened.  The round dowels worked the best in the other-than-90-degree corners.

This led to the insides of the Gate Tower being quite an ugly mess of wooden dowels and Hot Glue, but since the insides were never intended to be playable spaces, I went heavy on the Hot Glue, filling and reinforcing the joints, and the wooden dowels.

More to come as progress dictates.  Cheers!

Wooooaaaaaaah! That takes me back. I used to play Mage Knight competitively and we used tons of that type of terrain, it was perfect for tournaments.
Those were golden times, Mage Knight was a brilliant game as it was with a very tight and fun rules set. Shame it was all collectible and went under.
