Do you guys use worldworks stuff in game? I was thinking about picking up some of the dungeon stuff, but I wanted to kinda hear from some other players about it first.
I tried to do the whole dungeon thing once -- it's kind of tough if you don't
game at your own house. The models you can make are incredible, but not very
portable, imo. Imagine building a castle in Legos and then having to bring it
to a friends house.
That said, they've got EXCELLENT props. In the middle of "Idylls of the Rat King"
module by Goodman Games, there's a fight in a warehouse room with crates everywhere.
So, prior to the game, I made 30 or so crates (only a couple of hours while watching
TV) and brought them to the game and set up. The whole experience from both
DM and player experience was incredible --- I dropped down the figures of who the
characters saw, as they entered line of sight; one of the fighters started throwing
crates around so we could simulate that; characters strategized between hiding behind
stacks of crates, firing, etc. Very memorable.
