Harrowing Halls, Sinister Woods & Caves of Carnage









Here are more pictures of the tiles I used in my game last night. The house (Harrowing Halls tile set) was a Rogue's Den hidden in the woods, with the Sinister Woods tiles I used to make a 'front yard' area. I designated the dark green bushy areas in the front of the house, Daggerthorn Briar (Page 90 of the DMG). PCs and NPCs alike had one hell of a fight with the Daggerthorn Briar grasping at them when they moved into adjacent spaces to the Briar during the combat.

When the Briar hit, it would drag the creature it hit into the bush, dealing damage (as the dagger like thorns pierced flesh and drained the blood of the creature it hit). Consequently, the captured target was also immobilizing at that point. One thing to really understand here is that this fight would NOT have been challenging if you took the Daggerthorn Briar out of it. The combatants were 5 PCs versus 2 Shadow Hounds and one Human Knife Fighter.

Here are some more pictures...






The tiles I used for this set are from Caves of Carnage, minus the 3D tile at the far end of the set, which is from Harrowing Halls.

This is the next encounter the group will be dealing with. The Rogues are in league with a Berbalang who is beneath the sewers of the town, in secret tunnels, trying to gain access to old demon bones... what ever would it be doing that for?
