They are intended as cardstock miniatures to be printed out, glued to cardboard (or whatever) and stood up on bases.


Maybe useable in the 1st edition Blood Bowl game then??  :lol:

Real live fire elementals.


This week I've been mostly eating . . . The white ones with the little red flecks in them.

8O

Somehow I am not too surprised by that news.
And thanks for the info.
I would still rather have the metal Minis.
Heck, plastic Minis would be better than paper minis...

The plastic ones are sh!te, but then I've seen way too many badly painted minis. Maybe being able to buy cheap plastic ready painted minis is a good thing for most players who don't have the interest or ability to paint their own.

I have seen a pdf and then decided to not get the actual product; I have also seen a pdf and then decided I did want the real thing. If something is only available as a pdf, I don't want it. Not really a fan of virtual currency.

Along these same lines, I've started collecting PDF files of my favorite OD&D material, and since I own a lot of it already I plan to start scanning.

But first I've got to get a new printer/copier.  My old one started coughing up blood last month.

Does anyone have e printer/scanner copier that you're particularly pleased with for scanning old game material, especially the original digest size books?

Thanks!
