When I was using my Mageknight dungeon tiles recently, I realized I had no stairs. I had two idea to deal with this. The first was to take some of the "trap" tiles that had a centre cut out and use them to make spiral stair cases. This is one with the centre piece pulled out, a wedge of the piece cut as a step and the rest of descending steps painted in. This looks better in person than in this picture. I did two of these.</p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqWsAlGL66MAKUxzv64sx6kcXI8XYfYLhtmt813aBi0AWWPW6SoYeb4FoaOswyFZ0Y2QIF1i7PbF_tMOCkbnCpexN2qRG9e6rlPZYwuLe0xPUgUbnwkbYvB4a1Lvlsv2rdVazQoBi-z_TqQ-3Gglbne0kN0FU_Edq6RHHn6fniWQFg3FOWzFj0ohyphenhyphenldI0/s1280/IMG_1820.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1280" data-original-width="1280" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqWsAlGL66MAKUxzv64sx6kcXI8XYfYLhtmt813aBi0AWWPW6SoYeb4FoaOswyFZ0Y2QIF1i7PbF_tMOCkbnCpexN2qRG9e6rlPZYwuLe0xPUgUbnwkbYvB4a1Lvlsv2rdVazQoBi-z_TqQ-3Gglbne0kN0FU_Edq6RHHn6fniWQFg3FOWzFj0ohyphenhyphenldI0/w400-h400/IMG_1820.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><p>I also did the reverse to build stairs going up, basically taking centre pieces and cutting them to give the impression of stairs.

In addition to bringing this mini-campaign to a thematically appropriate conclusion, I wanted to do something indoors, using the Mageknight dungeon terrain I've been collecting. And I wanted to see if it was possible to break Fistful of Lead using a min-max strategy. Consequently, I give you the Joker's Lair.<div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcH3uOITLyOUbjHKcmTPIAF7itrADfvMpAI54YzirEhg8yM4fcqSmF18zAZQ5e8usgTmCnrB_1hri7FwxVrk2WJwFCOe1KRJh1OtIgY3aBbEQd9FKHBawheJ8CUhnij3ssy1-gPDLUlt5IU3F4x4hhJ7P8AX_U0U_C0IaLpn66TU0hItyF0MlQ2K3MsIo/s1512/IMG_1764.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1375" data-original-width="1512" height="364" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcH3uOITLyOUbjHKcmTPIAF7itrADfvMpAI54YzirEhg8yM4fcqSmF18zAZQ5e8usgTmCnrB_1hri7FwxVrk2WJwFCOe1KRJh1OtIgY3aBbEQd9FKHBawheJ8CUhnij3ssy1-gPDLUlt5IU3F4x4hhJ7P8AX_U0U_C0IaLpn66TU0hItyF0MlQ2K3MsIo/w400-h364/IMG_1764.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div><br /></div>Highlights include the main doorway at the bottom right.

Both teams had a lot of figures injured who will need to test to see if they are available for the last fight, deep inside Joker's lair (giving me a chance to haul out my dungeon terrain).</p><p>Overall, the game played fine with four players (perhaps even more interesting because the action shifted back and forth and more special cards came up). Batman might be a touch too powerful with his shooting and I wonder if the damage done by batarangs need to be downgraded to shock only?</p></div>Bob Barnetsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12164225489620639641noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8978918096761701249.post-37860471565197278122024-02-10T05:00:00.159-07:002024-02-10T05:00:00.152-07:00Fistful of Lead Batman, Game 2<p>Alright, so when we last left our heroes, the Joker and his gang had robbed a bank, making off with a bunch of loot to financs who knows what scheme.
