The "Jackal's" Dungeon Boards
« on: 05 December 2016, 05:32:48 PM »
One of my Gaming friends makes the greatest D&D setups ever so after pestering him to post here I have agreed to do it for him (With his permission). I will try to get him to share more of his pictures and will post them for everyones enjoymen. Hope they inspire you to play more games.  :D



What do you all think?

Wow! That looks like it would be a blast to play upon (or through...) I like the illuminated pieces!

Here is another great board showing the entrance to a dungeon. Great use of a variety of components dont you think?

I like the snow boards, the dungeon...not so much.  It needs to dial back the bedazzling by about 150%.  :D  But if he likes it, that's all that matters.

That's really good. I'd like to see more. Can I ask, did you use D&D rules or something else? And what were the coloured transparent hexagons In
row used for? That's very intriguing!

Heroscape hexes repurposed as columnar basalt formations?  Brilliant idea, love it!

Great necropolis too.  May I ask, how did he do the wall sections for the dungeon?  Always looking for new methods...

Oh he loves the "bedazzled" look  :D He has collected more battery operated things then I could imagine including a small fog maker  o_o  :o I can't wait to see that one  lol

I believe he is using current D&D rules but I will ask to be sure. I will also get a clarification on the colored hexs He explained it to me at the time but I have since forgotten (Old age make me a forgetful Git  :?)

The base floor tiles are pathfinder and the walls are hurst arts casts I believe. I also like his use of Heroscape tiles I have done that many times myself. The next board I understand will have a SiFi theme (If I can get his equipment painted up  lol)

Got the facts from my friend  8)  They play using a hybrid Pathfinder/D&D 3.5 system.  He uses D&D tile sets for the floors only and so each square is 5 feet. The colored hexagons represent a prismatic wall spell filling that corridor.

I stand a wee bit corrected He uses hirst arts molds for the walls and glue/paint them.  I also mix in some Pegasus Hobbies walls to save time.
