A while back, my wife and I backed a Kickstarter for Dwarven Forge 3d Terrain.
I haven't used them yet because I haven't been DMing. Now that I am starting a new group, I've decided to bring them out. My players are stoked to use them, since most of us are used to drawing on a battlemap, and others have had the pleasure of playing with a ceiling-mounted projector.
The next area of the campaign is going to be investigating a limestone cavern where the PCs believe Drow are holding a Sylph Druid captive. What they don't know, however, is that the cavern is also a Temple to Cyth-V'sug, where the Drow are experimenting on surface dwellers with different fungi for some nefarious goal. They'll also discover the cavern leads much deeper underground thanks to the Drow's use of burrowing creatures called Delvers (who are detailed in Misfit Monsters Redeemed). To the shock and horror of the residents of Fusil (in Andoran, where the game takes place), the limestone cavern is much deeper than anticipated and leads directly to Nar-Voth and even deeper into Sekamina, where the Drow make their homeland.
Here's a slideshow of the Limestone Cavern set up with Dwarven Forge I made in iPhoto! As well as individual pics from each of the levels (First Level & Second Level). In the folders for each of the levels I also have Word Docs that keep track of the pieces I've used so I can set them up more easily.
Has anybody else used Dwarven Forge before? If you have, I'd love to hear your experiences, especially if you have tips!
I hope you enjoy! If you want to get your own Dwarven Forge, I'm sure they're still available on their website.
