I haven't seen any discussions on these and I've searched the entire site for mention of these unpainted minis.

Here's a link: http://wizkids.com/deep-cuts-unpainted-list/

Can anyone comment on these? Do they use the same plastic as the Pathfinder Battles minis?

Thanks in advance for any updates.

I'd appreciate a copy, as well, if you're back.

Hey all. Since I am contributing in a big way to the Reaper Kickstarter, I feel that it's probably time to find a better home for my miniatures than the egg cartons I currently keep them in (especially since I'm going to be quadrupling my collection when the Kickstarter minis get here).

So, my question is: Is there a good place online to find display cases for miniatures? I'd like something with multiple shelves, glass doors, and something that stands on its own (rather than being wall mounted). Most of the cases I've found during a cursory Google search are either very shallow (for displaying shotglasses and other collectibles) or wall-mounted (often both). I'd really like something maybe 8-12 inches deep and probably no more than 6' tall.

Suggestions? Recommendations? I could possibly get my stepfather to custom-build me a case (he's a carpenter) but if I can find something pre-made that's not too expensive, that would be best. Thanks!

I bought a bunch of self-adhesive magnetic bases from Litko and stuck them on the bottom of my minis' bases. Then, I bought a roll-away tool chest on sale at Sears with various height drawers that open flush (all the way so you can reach items in the back without difficulty). The minis aren't on display, but I can store a ton of them and the magnetic bases keep them from falling over when opening the drawers...

Good luck finding what you like!

1 person marked this as a favorite.

Hmmm, I admit my memory is a bit fuzzy, but didn't Bob help make a magic item or two? Maybe he could add some bonus during magic item creation or provide a feat for creating wondrous items?

Seems like a nice addition to this write-up.

Nice job!

Please let me know if you are not interested in any future updates regarding other Paizo modules. It took a while to type the above, and if no one is interested in the 4e conversions, I won't waste the space on the messageboards listing them.

I've got a ways to go on my current campaign (SCAP), but I'm happy to see conversions like this to items I have that I'd like to use in my *next* campaign which will probably be 4E.

Keep on rockin'!


I was actually thinking more along the lines of re-writing the backstory and make it the Cagewrights (and not the yuan-ti) that brought about the Baron/Mayor's ascension. Something along the lines of the Cagewrights wanting to control the Mayor, but he's gotten suspicious and looks to the PCs to start investigating this "shadowy group" that has helped him.

After some time getting to know the Mayor during the course of their investigations with his patronage, the Cagewrights decide its time to replace the Mayor w/ Vhalantru since it appears he's no longer "controllable". This seems to tie nicely into the normal progression of the SCAP and (if they've come to work for, like and trust the Mayor) his disappearance will mean more to the PCs instead of the "huh? really? hey, pass the pretzels" reaction I'm envisioning right now.

Anyway, thanks for your thoughts. If I get around to fleshing this out more, I'll post it here.

Thanks,

Morgan


Hello All,

Mostly a lurker, but thought I'd post this idea I had after reading "Within the Circle" in Dungeon 130. I thought it might be interesting to make the Lord Mayor more of a tragic figure and replace Baron Wildhurst with him. The yuan-ti would have to be changed to the Cagewrights and some minor things changed at the depot, but it seemed like a natural fit to show how a good person could be brought down.

While I know Jenya is the main NPC contact for the campaign, it seems as though this would be a nice tie-in with the mayor. Just giving the PCs another reason to care about the city and a nice starting point to give them some XP before they start the adventure proper.

I'd love to hear any thoughts on this idea; good, bad or indifferent.

Thanks,

Morgan

The stat block appendix will definately be sorted alphabetically. Since a lot of the stat blocks get used in multiple adventures (demodands and canomorphs, for example), arranging them by adventure gets a little tricky. Space is also an issue (as always). I think that putting all the stat blocks into one long alphabetized list is the best way to go. And of course, if we can get them posted as a web enhancemnet PDF, you'll be able to print out just what you need for that night's game, so that should help as well.

Hey James,

I've been reading your posts about AP1's hardcover with great interest as I'm planning on using it for my next campaign (just getting geared up to run the final story arc in a Kalamar campaign). I'm pretty excited about the hardcover and thought I'd add my 2 cents on this topic.

Personally, I love the idea of a stat block appendix, especially if it is available as a web enhancement PDF. One thing I might add to the wish list (a toughie mostly due to space issues) is a brief synopsis of the role the NPC plays along with their stat block. With hundreds of NPCs, it gets tough to remember exactly who NPC XYZ is and why I'm printing his stats out. Having a one-liner about an NPC helps keep me from having to do more work.

For example, "Pyllrak Shyraat is an Underdark slaver in 'Life's Bazaar' PCs may encounter in the Malachite Fortress" is a statement that would help me keep everything straight.

Thanks and keep up the great work on putting this together!
