So Wizards of the Coast has their adventure coming out and along with it a new collection of minis. So I gave myself a little treat. I grabbed the Tomb & Traps set for Tomb of Annihilation. Heck, I’ve got plenty of minis for monsters and player characters. However, when it comes to cool dungeon dressing, count me in. Let’s say that I’m happy, meh, and WTF? about this set.
First the good. I mean this why anybody is picking it up. THE GREEN DEVIL FACE! You know the one. Plus a nifty magical portal. A sarcophagus. And the “fire traps” are hand for torches of that party camp fire.
Well that was the really good bits. And there’s meh bits as well. The trap tiles and treasure. Handy but really nothing that would fall into the OMG that’s cool.
And finally, we have the WTF were they thinking. Hey let’s put some potion bottles and scrolls in there too. Good thought. But really. That’s the stuff piled on a dime. That’s right a dime. I had to use tweezers just to pick up the stuff to put it there. It’s tiny. Too tiny to actually use at a game table unless glue them onto something bigger.
That was special gaming treat to myself. And back soon for some crazy rants on Mutant Crawl Classics. Been running that game and it’s blast so far. Heck one of the characters is a two-headed wizard. But more an that later.
