Deth Wizards – There is something odd about this town…

The Deth Wizards table is a group project. While some participate with their own warband, like Dino is painting up his undead, and I am gathering in an Middlehammer theme around Heinrich Kemmler, Florian contributes with terrain.

As we wanted to be flexible with the terrain and not locked in just with Deth Wizards, we looked up various ranges on MyMinifactory and Cults and ended up at Dark Realms and their Briarwood range. That wouldn't just work with Deth Wizards, but Mordheim, Middlehammer Empire, Frostgrave and to some extend even Turnip and beyond.

Last year, while I was looking for terrain files for Warmaster, I came across Dark Realms and I bought the Castle Argent files, but subscribed to the tribe as well, giving me access to some of the Briarwood houses and ruins, and we went with House #1 for a test print, to see if it would work. Florian used his new Bambu Lab A1 and used Bambu PLA filament (some say it's repacked Sunlu or Esun PLA+).

The buildings are split into different floors and you can take of the roof as well. There are smaller detail parts as separate pieces, to not create a problem with overhands. The fit is impressive and the overall quality by the Bambu print is incredible. This very close to a plaster or resin cast, but much more durable and weighs significantly less.

With the first test print absolutely crushing our expectations, Florian went on and kept the Bambu busy. We added a second regular building, House #4, to the lot. What is impressive, that they have detailled interiors, doors and even some scatter terrain around the building.

As of today, the range does not have something like the city hall (but a much larger Inn), I was looking for something that could fill this "central" role within a terrain setup, and chose the Shop #4 as a third building. There are multiple shops, with a sign above the door and a bay window or something similar, but this should be sufficient. Again, this building comes with a fireplace, a second story and some scatter around the ground floor.

And as it shouldn't be just intact buildings, I added House #5 Ruins to the batch. Interesting and realistic way of how the walls broke apart. Playable and sturdy. Still providing ground for miniatures to stand upon on the first floor.

With Deth Wizards being played on 30 by 22 inch, we're probably pretty on road with these four buildings. But as I said above, this is not limited to Deth Wizards, but other games that would be played upon 3' by 3' to 4' by 4', so a bit more wouldn't hurt. Therefore I have my eyes on adding the House# 2 and the ruins of House #6 and the Forge to the mix.

Beyond that we will obviously need some scatter terrain, that is something that I will take care of on my resin printer. The Briarwood range comes with a selection of scatter and interiour models, but there is a broad variety, that would fit as well. I have to prepare these now for painting, organizing some not too costly primer in a mid-grey
