  My first real use of the Dwarven Forge stuff in my home D&D game. I didn't have enough floor pieces to really re-create the large cavern, so I used the battlemat as the base and the DF stuff for walls and a raised area.

  ...<Grin>... Fu-Man chu,
  Good Idea on the Battle Mat... I Have Never Seen that particular Colour before... What is it? And I Like the Various Height Differences of the Floors... I wish DF would come out with some sort of Sloped Edges that could allow for less "Rigid" transitions...

  The Battle mat is an old one that was produced by Naga-hide - not sure if they're in business anymore, but I really like the color of it. Thanks for the compliments guys! Hopefully, I'll be able to put more pictures of my setups online soon.

  Hehehe, yup i used my first Fantasy DF this weekend too. Have a Lot of the Sci-Fi but... yes i fell to the darkside, and bought Caverns...
  It is so true you need a few sets to do something with it, the players seemed happy with it, there were no ohs and ahs though, i was a little disapointed... what does it take to get an oh and ahh???... there were 4 full fantasy sets running the caverns, 2 passagess and the rooms (the old sets where you got a bunch and were over $100) there was a decent set up (will bring camera to next game... to take pictures) but they were like ok i was disapointed at thier reactions... no wow that's cool... ungratefull.... *#**@**! *!

  :lol: You Know the Next "Phase" for Caverns probably needs to be Some Sloped Edge Pieces so that floors that are stacked do not look quite so "Obvious"... Were your Players being asked to Suspend Disbelief with stacking Cavern Floors? (I Know that the Sci-Fi stuff stacks better, and that you have probably got them Spoiled with those...<Grin>...)

  Two different Groups, they had never seen the Sci Fi stuff, and it was one level, all together on the table, i thought a decent Set Up, but they were like Eh...
  Will take a picture to see (still in the middle of the fight so it will be re set up) what you guys think.

  I Always Dig new Pics... I Guess the Next Obvious Question would be: "Does this Group usually Impress Better"? Cause maybe it was a Bad Day? I Think that the Caverns are an Obvious Contender for "Wow" Factoring... I Think maybe you Need to Check the Batteries in your Players... Or maybe they are Just Broken? (You Probably should have Kept the Styrofoam Packaging they originally Came In)....

  I must know. Where and when did you purchase that battlemat? I have been looking for Naga-Hide battlemats for a long time now without success. You can email me off forum if you want. It's rhenford <at> yahoo <dot> com.

  Love new pictures so THANKS. Did your players make it up to some of the higher levels in the game session?

  Hey rhenford, I'm sorry to say I can't help you out... that particular battlemat is the one I've had the longest and I bought it well over 10 years ago at a local gaming store. I've no idea where they can be gotten now! Sorry!
