G'day!

The latest Floor Rules for the D&D Miniatures game have been posted, and there is a little snippet about Frostburn and Sandstorm:

4) Terrain tiles found in the back of the terrain series of books.

Frostburn
The four tiles in Frostburn are not legal for Organized Play.
Not Legal: Crevasse, Ebony Lake, Razor Drifts, Ice Palace.

Sandstorm
The four tiles in Sandstorm are legal.
Legal: Mummy’s Crypt, Jagged Wasteland, Sun Temple, Oasis.

(Terrain tiles are 5"x8" tiles for D&D Miniatures).

So, it seems like they're supporting the miniature game somewhat with the terrain books in addition to the RPG-themed material.

Hmmm...interesting.

Still waiting to skim the terrain books before I buy them. Here's to hoping they make these tiles available for download!

I wonder why the Frostburn ones are banned, but the Sandstorm ones aren't?

It could be that the Frostburn ones contain elements that don't really work in sanctioned play (new features, etc.)

Cheers!

Oooh! Yet another reason to grab these...even though the Frostburn ones can't be used in Organized Play, its always nice to have more terrain tiles.
