Stronghold Terrain Latest Creation is Somewhat Rickety
June 15, 2012 by dracs
Stronghold Terrain have posted up a preview image of their new Old Shed miniature, perfect for fantasy tables, dystopian environments or to keep the gardening tools in.
Now while I'm finding it hard to think of a specific use for this shack it is nonetheless a characterful piece which will definitely add to a wide variety of gaming table styles.
What gaming uses can you think of for this piece? Let's hear the most imaginative ones you can think of.
I see this being a great addition to some Fantasy terrain boards. Would be great having this as some run down house where a Dwarf (has to be…obviously) adventurer has taken up residence. Yet in the middle of the night the rickety building doesn’t muffle the sounds of approaching zombies and they come pouring out of the trees baying for his blood!
Soon of course he is joined by a group of fleeing heroes and they hold off until the dawn until the little shack is bathed in the gore of the dead!

This is nondescript enough that I can see it being used in Fantasy, Warmahordes or historic. It’s not like every building in every rural area is perfectly preserved. Why is it, on the tabletop at least, that every farm outbuilding all across France is always so neat and tidy looking? Why is that every shack and shed across the Civil War era South looks like it should be attached to a plantation’s mansion? This building will be very useful for players looking to add some character to their rural battlegrounds.
Malifaux really relies on good terrain and that’s got it. There’s a bit of the Bayou about it. I can see a bunch of little gremlins running around the swamps surrounding it. It also looks just the shed I built in the back yard.
Thats rather nice looking.
