Minis or Paper Minis - What do you use?

[divby0]

Hello everyone,

I am planning to run the Carrion Crown Path. As I am fairly new to the Game, and it will be
my first major GM campaign, I was wondering what kind of minis you guys are using?

Are you making paper Minis out of the PDFs on your own?

I wish Paizo would release a complete metal- or paper Mini set for this (and mabye other) Adventure Paths!

thanks for your help
Markus

WotC minis, always.

WotC minis for the standard fare mobs. PF/Reaper for the iconics and BBEG's and paper counter stands from Litko Aero for minis I dint have or don't exist.

Seriously though if you don't have a lot of minis, this stands are a life saver. Video on it:

I use WoTC minis for the most part. However I'm starting to paint up a bunch of metal minis for use but that is time-consuming. I'm not averse to using the PDF paper minis but I have too many others already.

If you're in the position where it would be a real chore to find the plastic minis in bulk then the paper minis are a fine alternative. Most of us have the advantage of using this stuff for at least 10 years now and have built up a collection. Most new GMs don't have that luxury.

G'day, our group's been running a few months and we've tried the paper version but it was summer here and fans etc made the whole thing a complete hassle (some nights we ended up substituting Bluetack and colouring them with a texta). I recently purchased some miniatures which should make it a lot easier. After our experience I'd say "Real miniatures every time."

My DM uses WotC minis. The players variously borrow from his collection and bring their own, metal, minis. Personally, I prefer to print tokens, and dispense with miniatures altogether.
