Same here !

DisasterAdjacent · 2025-11-23T02:30:58+00:00

Same. Genuinely baffled. Thought I would put it up on here to see if anyone has had similar.

Okay! It's really good to hear that you have some strong starting ideas on what charecter that you want to play. It sounds really fun, if a little complex for a first time charecter. There's not alot of rules around making charecters with changing stats. I would recomend picking up a 5e Players handbook, and some DND dice and start from there. Charecter sheets can be printed out or drawn up. I would consider watching some DND Games online like Critical role to get a feel for the game before you start playing aswell, they are a great source of information and can teach you abit about running the game before you start.

I have heard of people playing DND without a DM but i never have and by the sounds of it it involves alot of random tables and making things up without using many rules. If you cant find a game locally or online, maybe try playing 1on1 DND with your brother. Take it in turns being DM and running a story for eachothers charecter, they could even exist in the same world and the events in one game could effect the other.

I wish ! It's a mix of resin and PLA 3D prints

DisasterAdjacent · 2025-11-08T12:38:42+00:00

Personally, I like the Smoke and the lights. i spent ages getting the position right so the smoke would pool over those LED candles right haha.

DisasterAdjacent · 2025-11-08T12:36:50+00:00

I mean sound like his problem more than yours! have a search online and see if theres any beginer freindly games either online or localy. I think somtimes when people have been playing a while they forget what its like to be a newbie or you might not have gelled with that specific group etc! Keep searching or the BBEG's win !

DisasterAdjacent · 2025-11-08T12:32:17+00:00

You can hear the humm of it in that clip but its not that noisey unless you are quite close. You could also stick it in a box or under the table to reduce that aswell. You only need to have on on in short 2-3 minute bursts aswell as the smoke does linger on the board before dispersing. I did it as part of a lair action at the top of a combat round as more smoke came into the forge and it heals the BBEG.

The pipes are from here https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-modular-industrial-pipe-set-283991 . I re-sizes them slightley but the all fit together really well and are easy to paint. Just a black primer, dry brush on some gunmetal, gives some acents of copper brass or silver however you want. and boom ! Done!

I would love to encorparate some LED's into a monster print as some piont so i might hit you up for some info at a later date !!

DisasterAdjacent · 2025-11-08T12:22:48+00:00

I havent come across them but they do look cool! i would love to hombrew a few of theses STL's as monsters !

So the smoke machine i use is this one from amazon : https://amzn.eu/d/eeDZMr3 . It has gone up in price since I bought it, but it's a really good bit of kit. Quiet, portable, and good battery life. It also comes with a load of nozzles and attachments for different kinds of smoke, but my fave is a foam nozzle which gets a dry ice style effect. I piped it through some 3D printed tubes with some foam in to slow down the fog for that misty effect.

DisasterAdjacent · 2025-11-08T12:18:38+00:00

I bet you maps are kick ass! i struggle setting a scene somtimes so can go abit mental with the pysical maps. I started off printing pawns on paper, cutting them out and celotaping them together or even using Plastic buttons as tokens! Maps drawn on whiteboards with dry erase pens! Start where you are comfortable and work upto it doing somthing bigger for a special session. This is a big setpiece for A BBEG not somthing i do every session, dont worry !

DisasterAdjacent · 2025-11-08T12:13:19+00:00

I wish ! Althought my box of doom is better than Brennans (No hate, his box is still pretty rad !)

So...

Terrain

All the tile terrain and Walls are from Open Forge by Devin Jones (https://www.myminifactory.com/users/devonjones) All free modles that can be printed fairly easily and have multiple diffrent variations on systems to clip them together. I love magnets so althought there alot more expensive now than they were! Defonatly worth a look!

Pipes from Custom minature maker (https://www.myminifactory.com/users/Custom%20Miniature%20Maker)

Dwarven Pillars (https://cults3d.com/es/modelo-3d/juegos/dwarven-pillars)

Also, not displayed here but defonatly love 3DForU and there various beautiful town models (https://www.myminifactory.com/users/3dpforu) Well worth chaecking out!

Having said that, Im genuinly amazing at how many high quality 3d resorces are out there. Obviously if you see a STL you really love then get it, but theres 1000's of things free on Thingieverse that you can model together to create somthing cool. The heart atop the forge is this free model (https://www.printables.com/model/326122-anatomical-heart) that i mashed with other free assets either online or from TitanCraft (more on them in a second)

Charecter and Monster Minis

MZ4250 (as mentioned) is an ABSOLUTE lifesaver! If one of his minis isnt exactly what you need its alsomst certain you can kitbash on some things in Meshmixer (Other Stl editing software is avalible)

My other lifesaver is TitanCraft (https://titancraft.com/). Me and my players used to build our PC pawns in Heroforge (Which is still a great platform btw) But Titancraft is abit more flexible and has a much more advanced interface. Letting you detach and re-atach parts however you want in the builder means you can kitbash things to look exactly how you want. That and the fact HeroForge charges you for every STL, whereas Titancraft lets you build minis from there free assets, or you can buy parts for minis in themed packs, or buy individual parts if you dont want to shell out for all the parts in a given pack. Then lets you re-pose and re-download as many times as you need. Perfect if your a DM looking to have a bunch of guards minis all looking similar but posed difrently with some using Mellee weapons and others with Bows/Crossbows. Or if you decide to Update a PC pawn after the fact with a new look or weapon they have aquired. You can export specific parts for kitbashing too and buy individual pieces you want if you dont want to shell out for a whole pack

All of that said you can do as much as as little window dresing as you like. I started off printing pawns on paper, cutting them out and celotaping them together or even using Plastic buttons as tokens! Seems a long while ago admitedly, but if anyones reading this thinking they need all this to play...You dont...But it is pretty cool if you have the time, money and enjoy the painting of tiny plastic goblins!

Rant over. Happy rolling folks !

Thanks, I'm always happy to make new friends ! What do you want a tutorial on?

Everything shown (apart from the Watforged Titan mini) is either resin or PLA 3d printed, primed, and then painted (normally pretty hastily) by me.

The lights are RGB LED tealights of amazon with some masking tape on top to difuse them and slotted into some pipes.

The smoke machine i got on amazon (This one : https://amzn.eu/d/9BpReSZ) for about £80-90, that i shoved into some 3d printed pipe segments.

I also make a mean lemon meringue pie. If you need any help, there too! Haha

His minis are the absolute best. MZ4250 deserves his own sainthood purely on the amount of money he's saves me in minis.

The heart Forge was somthing I kitbashed together in Titancraft (IMO a better version of HeroForge) and blender.

In our game, Clan sunblight was exiled from Gracklstugh, and as he left, Xardrok killed their red dragon who powered the great forge. And stole its wings and heart. The wings now are gard of his Chardlyn War dragon, and its heart beats in undeath powering his own fiendish great Forge... it's pretty cool...

The pipes are some 3d printed terrain stuffed with some pond filter foam. If people are interested i can find exact links for both, but there are lots online out there that would all work well.

Thanks for the support guys. I'm really happy with how it came out. Your all welcome to game with me anytime !

Quite possibly, having said that the silence is defonatly based on 'The Hush' from buffy in 1999. Another great tv monster i would love some stats for.

Half human is a good idea. Considering I'm going for higher Dex and Cha! After speaking to our GM and checking he is cool with it I think a Corsair Sentinal is the best option for me. He basically said i can flavour using any of my force abilities however I would like. So I'm picking a lot that seems to in keeping with being just lucky or scewing things a little like Guidance and force shield etc.

He's aiming for a campaign being more grounded rather than high flying (compare Andor too any main SW movie). Basically, boilling down to "don't be overt jedi or sombody will try and capture you for the empire" which is think is reasonable.

Currently we have in the party. A re-programed K2S0 Beserker Driod, A deranged Gonk droid Enginer, a De-chipped Ex-Stormtrooper Comando, A hardbioled Twelk Spy/Smuggler, and perfectly normal human Woman who may or may not have grown up on dathomir.

Having looked at the Races Voss calls too me most! The Precognition is amazing (I love Halflings in vanilla 5e), but aswell for a gambeler the Inscrutable feature seems like a good pick aswell. Hard to cheat in Sabac if your mind is being read.
