In those, I deliberately avoided mentioning miniatures and terrain &#8211; we all know miniatures &#8211; and terrain is usually made for wargaming, but with the opportunity, I had at an early view at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dungeonsandlasers.com\/\">Dungeons &amp; Lasers<\/a>, I couldn&#8217;t resist showing it off here. (This was actually helped by Egg Embry, an author who joined us recently here at d20radio, but who I&#8217;ve known for a while longer).<\/p>\n<p>So what you see here is a Demo Box for Dungeons &amp; Lasers &#8211; a system for creating modular terrain for your RPG games. The pieces here are display pieces, so they are fantasy on one side and Sci-fi on the other, but the real deal will only have one of the choices.<\/p>\n<p>I will note that the pictures do not do it justice, but you can find more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dungeonsandlasers.com\/\">pictures of it on their own site<\/a> or on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/dungeonsandlasersofficial\/\">Instagram<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/dungeonsandlasers\">Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-17914 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/1-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/1-678x381.jpg 678w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Appearance:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The detail on these is rather good, not EXTREMELY detailed, but well done, and especially at the distances where you play, they should look very nice. There&#8217;s just enough detail for it to look good on your table, and just enough that it&#8217;s not too much of a hassle to paint. The sci-fi stuff, in particular, is inspiring, probably because it has a very H.R. Giger feel to it (and I can only imagine playing the upcoming Alien RPG with it. Urrrggghhh (or YEEEAH! &#8211; depending on your outlook).<br \/>\nWhat you see here is one of the sprues as they look.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-17915 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/2-e1563300714494-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/2-e1563300714494-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/2-e1563300714494-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/2-e1563300714494-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/2-e1563300714494-678x381.jpg 678w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Quality:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Oh my god&#8230; When Michael from Dungeons &amp; Lasers originally contacted me, I was expecting this to be either\u00a0cardboard, MDF (laser-cut), or resin terrain. What I was NOT expecting was what we got. Which is plastic. Extremely strong and durable plastic. Like we&#8217;re talking Games Workshop plastic when it&#8217;s at it&#8217;s VERY best. It&#8217;s strong enough that getting it out of the sprues was hard for my side-cutters (which I&#8217;ve used a lot over the years, and which are very good and sharp), and I tried to snap one of the thinner floor pieces, and while I think I &#8220;CAN&#8221; do it, it&#8217;d take so much force that I&#8217;m worried I&#8217;d hurt my fingers. It is very\u00a0likely the best terrain quality I&#8217;ve ever held in my hands, and considering I worked in 2 different gaming stores that sold wargaming miniatures and terrain &#8211; and that I did it for a decade, not to mention the 2\u00bd decades of gaming: That is high praise. I really cannot emphasize how good this stuff is.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Versatility:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This one is a little more difficult for me to judge, given that it&#8217;s a demo box, and the pieces are limited. But what I can say is that the pieces snap-fit together (without the use of glue, which means you can change it as needed), and the snap-fit actually\u00a0works WELL (unlike the snap-fit models of Games Workshop from back in the day) is a huge bonus in my book. Just so that\u00a0you can see what I&#8217;ve mean, I&#8217;ve put in a picture of a piece of terrain built with one sprue, and one built with two.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-17916 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/3-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/3-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/3-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/3-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/3-678x381.jpg 678w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-17917 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/4-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/4-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/4-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/4-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/4-678x381.jpg 678w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-17918 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/5-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/5-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/5-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/5-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/5-678x381.jpg 678w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Painting:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I haven&#8217;t painted any of the pieces yet, but what you see here is one that has been spray painted.

There&#8217;s a few reasons for it: 1) It&#8217;s terrain obviously &#8211; 2) The team is located in Poland, which should mean that it&#8217;s EU friendly\u00a0as well, and I imagine they&#8217;ll have some sort of\u00a0deal set up for the US residents, so that\u00a0it can avoid the extra VAT and shipping charges. Those have always been a killer for me on other Kickstarters. &#8211; 3) It&#8217;s gorgeous. It really is, both looks-wise, but especially the material. As I mentioned, it more than anything reminded me of the strong GW plastics &#8211; like the ones used in Warhammer Quest or the ones that Mantic use in their terrain series for Dungeon Saga. And finally 4) &#8211; There&#8217;s a free miniature for the pledgers who join in the first 48 hours, once it launches on the 13th of August &#8211; I mean look at his little face and his sword! (I will say though, that while the other parts of it could be put together without glue, I wouldn&#8217;t try it with this one &#8211; that one needs it. \ud83d\ude42\u00a0)<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/8.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-17921 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/8-169x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"169\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/8-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/8-768x1365.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/8-576x1024.jpg 576w, https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/8.jpg 1836w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 169px) 100vw, 169px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Welcome to a special edition of Finder&#8217;s Archives.
