prof_bycid Posted October 22, 2017 Report Share Posted October 22, 2017 As soon as I saw the field of terror story encounter in the newest Wyrd Chronicles I knew I had to make this scenario happen---Tuesday is Malifaux night at my FLGS, and so is All Hallow's Eve this year! The three pieces below are what I have come up with so far. This was partly inspired by other images in the same issue of the Chronicles, e.g., the wasp nest. This is on a 50 mm marker, and will be added to a generic terrain tile, such as a flat forest bit, to indicate that it is terrifying, hazardous, or both. With a scarecrow being a main character in this story encounter, I wanted to have a corn field. Having the corn in tight rows would be more realistic, but I wanted to keep it playable as well. Anyone have any other ideas of how to pull this off? Maybe separate magnetic strips, but that is a lot of magnetizing. This is my hanging tree. It also has a wasp nest (inspired by Marko Paunovik). I will play this as hazardous due to the Malifaux-sized wasps that will come out of that nest. The tree is part of an antler I cut up. I especially like the organic-looking bottom of the 'tree' where the antler joined the skull. The victim is put together with the male multi-part kit. I had to mod the shoulders a bit to get the arm placement right. I did this in a hurry to be ready for this week's game night, so they are quite rough. I will make a post about how these pieces worked in the Field of Terror scenario. Cheers all. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prof_bycid Posted November 11, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 The field of terror terrain worked well. The scenario itself was really fun. Just fielding a crew of terrifying beaters from 4 different factions was a blast. With the corn field I was just lucky in that no one had to cross it in such a way that they were on top of the row of plants. I think I may plan out a larger field with spaced rows that are magnetized. The hanging tree worked, but people mostly just avoided it. The ground monster thing was by far the most versatile as I just threw it on top of an irregularly shaped tile and called it hazardous terrain. To finish up that piece my plan is to find a picture of a throat-like tunnel and glue it to the bottom---the base is already drilled out. The goal is to make it look like it extends well underground. Thanks BTW @mattc ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
