ArenaWorks is a simple, flexible and fun way to model a gladiatorial fighting arena. The front and rear of the terraced stand units are fully interchangeable; there are three fronts and five backs. There are over 80 unique items in this jam-packed set! Make your own customized dream arena with 90-degree corners and 45-degree corners. If you wish a more rounded arena shape, try putting a straight section in the middle of the two 45-degree corners. A reverse 90-degree corner is also included if you wish to make an "L" or "T" shaped arena.
To access the stands, seven different stairs are provided—stick them on any way you want! There is a grand gate, a royal box, and an altar—whether it's the peaceful shrine of the benevolent rulers or the bloody altar of the sorcerer priests is up to you.
Arenaworks is designed to play your way, from a pickup afternoon session of dice-rolling to the centrepiece of your fully developed campaign. The modular stands will portray many scenarios:
Small town fighting pit
Big city coliseum
Jousting, Tournaments
Horse, beast or chariot racing in a Hippodrome
Stage for spectacles, parades, training, executions
Use Arenaworks as the backdrop to your urban campaign or for a handy and danger-filled side adventure. Fight your PCs in them to prove their skills and earn experience, money and fame. Hire henchmen or bodyguards from the brutal fighters. Arenas with masses of people are also a good place to cut a few purses, too...

Arena Works is definitely a niche product - but it fills that niche amazingly well.
For me the main use has been for Pit Fights in Games Workshop's Mordheim, while a friend uses his for Blood Bowl by the same company.
In any game where there is gladiatorial combat this is the best accessory that I have ever seen.
Recently I discovered a new use for the set, on the World Works forum, where Sir Didymous had pressed it into service as a paint rack - a use that I have since emulated, the thing is the perfect size for storing Valejo and Reaper paints.
