When you order a pair of random packs of adventurers from 15mm.co.uk, you run the risk of finding a few doubles in your bags. Good.  That’s what creativity is for. A little paint, scrape off a gubbin here or there, and your twins might look a lot alike, but...

Shorty on the right is probably just a vanilla fighter, but next week you’ll see why I put him in this photo with the big hairies.  The middle guy just screams Fafhrd, and the guy on the left in full breastplate and fur loincloth amuses me – he straddles...

Holy cats! It’s time to show off the holy cats who have dedicated their lives to wiping evil off the face of the dungeon map. These guys are all a little blunt, so they could serve as fighters who favor maces, hammers, and other impact based weapons. There’s a...

I may have posted a couple of these guys way back before my fall hiatus. Here is the current crop of wizards available for delving the depths of Castle Meatgrinder.  Players now have a choice of a death mage or necromancer, a starry mage, and a snake wizard suitable...

Ral Partha Europe’s Blighthaven line includes a dwarf pack with ten miniatures, of which I’ve painted all ten, and here’s the first nine of them.  One went AWOL.  Dwarves do that.  Let’s just say that I’m keeping one in my pocket as a Castle Meatgrinder surprise for the players....

One of the advantages of playing a miniature heavy version of B/X is that it gives you complete control over character selection.  Taking a general WYSIWG approach to things makes it easier to explain to modern players why their super-unique character with the long blah-de-blah backstory – at 0...

With apologies to Splintered Light… The deeper levels of Castle Meatgrinder are populated by the slimiest critters in the dungeon.  Oozes, slugs, and all sorts of wet nasties – you can’t get slimier than actual slimes, after all.  Naturally, these fellows are perfectly at home in the dank corners...

I am increasingly leaning towards using Christianity as the default religion of the world of Castle Meatgrinder. For one thing, this is in keeping with the Appendix N style of literature that my own worlds favor.  Books like “The Dragon and the George” and “Three Hearts and Three Lions”...

As a certifiable L-7 square, I don’t typically work blue, but the title to this post is the traditional cry of those who seek to remember a gentle inspirational giant taken from us too soon.   Yeah, this is still the internet.  These cave apes are a special 15mm.co.uk...

Nothing like a pair of bright and colorful wizards to add a little flair to the collection.   ...
