Battlelore – Storage Solution

With my many Battlelore pieces I needed a storage solution so I came up with this:

• 2 trays for the banners
• 4 trays for the figurines and the game pieces
• 1 box for my building modules
• 1 box for the rules, boards and other material
• 1 big box to store them all ;p

Battlelore – Conquest Board

After I played Battlelore on a standard ans epic board I decided to go bigger, double epic or Conquest Board.

I used 4 standard boards and cut half of the last row of each epic combo to form a 4 board Conquest Board Game.

Epic extension is 11$ so for 44$ you can make one of your own if you don’t want to use your standard board. Enjoy !!

Battlelore – Custom Creature: Undead Dogs

I found these Undead Dogs at Le Valet de Coeur in Montreal and I thought it would be a great addition to my Battlelore Board Game. I intend to use them as guarding creatures for a custom scenario involving Necromancers guarding an Artifact. Witch player will defeat them and take the prize?

They are an expansion of the Zombies !!! Board Game made by Twilight Creations. I found this link to an online store who distributes them:

Battlelore – Custom Creature: Minotaur

I found this Pre-Painted figurine distributed by Reaper Miniatures for my Battlelore Board Game. The size is perfect. You just have to create abilities and determine it’s power. Look at the other figurines for other Battlelore creatures.

Check it at the Reaper Miniatures Website: http://www.reapermini.com/Miniatures/Legendary%20Encounters/latest/20015#detail/20015_w_2_a

Axis&Allies 1940 global – Aircraft Carrier Plane Tokens

Sometimes when playing Axis&Allies it becomes very hard to move aircraft carriers with planes on them so I created these tokens that you can put under the carrier as a replacement for the planes.

Battlelore – Custom Tiles

I created these tiles to add some options to your Battlelore Board Game.

LOTR LCG – Deck Builder

I first discovered this “Board Game” on BoardGameGeek.com by pure chance. I already had War of the Ring Board Game and I’m a fan of Lord of the Rings and Magic the Gathering so it seemed normal to try this game. For the moment I have only the core set but I plan on buying every expansions.

I discovered a website to create virtual decks and search ALL cards of Lord of the Rings The Card Game. Try it !

Battlelore – Wall “B” Module

The second Wall in my Battlelore Board Game Module Series is the Wall “B” Module, a wall for the vertical hex. It is 3 hex long and fits within 2 Towers “A” Module to form the second castle section.

Pathfinder RPG – Random Treasure Generator

I played RPGs for the last 20 years and one of my favorite is Pathfinder RPG from Paizo. I find this edition to be the best version of Dungeons&Dragons 3.5 and since we didn’t follow the 4th edition we use Pathfinder RPG.

I found it long and difficult to generate treasures and I didn’t wanted to roll every dice to obtain the result so I created a php web application to generate them for me and everybody who is using it. So far it is pretty popular and it is a real time saver. It is called Pathfinder RPG Random Treasure Generator, try it and you’ll see !

Battlelore – Wall “A” Module

The fourth Module to be released in my Battlelore Board Game Modules series is the Wall “A” Module, a simple wall made for 2 hex horizontal or angle. You can easily combine it with two Tower “A” Module to form a castle wall.

Battlelore – Hill “B” Module

The Hill “A” Module inspired one of the members (Teamski) of BoardGameGeek.com and he suggested another hill model, a more slopped model. Here it is, the Hill “B” Module. This Module has only 1/2″ in height ans the base is slightly larger then a regular hex to create a slope.

Battlelore – Hill “A” Module

I present you the second module of my Battlelore Modules Series, the Hill “A”. A simple elevated terrain to replace the flat hill so you can see the units position more easily. Use the same method of assembly as the Tower “A” Module and don’t forget to tape or glue something heavy inside if you want it to stay stable. I put 2 hills on each sheet to maximize space.

Battlelore – Tower “A” Module

After a couple of games of Battlelore I wanted to add some elements to the game. I find it very repeating to just battle on a flat board so I made some Modules that you can print and assemble yourself. Use them as you want they will be modular so you can combine them in every ways you can imagine.

The first module to be released is the Tower “A” model.

Download the 300dpi PDF (32MB) to be sure you will have a nice resolution. Print them on thick cardboard so they are sturdy enough. If they are unstable glue a bolt on the bottom to make them heavier. You just have to fold and glue the tabs. I use double-sided tape. Have fun !

 

War of the Ring – Custom Logo

This is just a simple project for my War of the Ring Board Game. I was inspired by the Official Logo of the game and I thought of making one of my own but with the Ringbearer Font…is it thematic or what!

You can download the logo PSD here.

War of the Ring – Cards Storage Box

With the addition of my War of the Ring Storage Solution the cards where kind of loose in the box and I didn’t liked it. I found a 2$ plain wood box that I customized to fit the game‘s look and theme. I used brown varnish and some Lord of the Rings like tribal stickers.

 

War of the Ring – Reinforcements Zone

When I play my War of the Ring Board Game I don’t know where to put all the reinforcements figurines. I was inspired by a picture of the game where there was a side panel for those figurines. I decided to create my own reinforcements zone.

English PDFs: WotR-Reinforcements-Zone-en
French PDFs: Guerre-Anneau-Zone-Renforcements-fr

1) Print the two 300dpi PDFs on gloss cardboard 11″x17″
2) Cut two 7″x14 1/2″ thick cardboard for the base
3) Remove excess white paper from pictures
4) Glue the pictures on the two thick cardboard with double-sided Scotchtape
5) Fix the 2 panels with a piece of Doctape

I used the Ringbearer and Tengwar Annatar fonts in the PSD.
Here are the Photoshop CS4 files:
English file: reinforcements-nation-zone-en.psd
French file: renforcements-nation-zone-fr.psd

With this you’ll have a nice panel that fits in the original box and a practical side panel for your reinforcements.

 

Battlelore – 4 Boards Configurations

As with any Board Game I’m never satisfied with what comes in the box and I use my imagination to add some flavor to the original game. For my Battlelore Board Game I designed 2 new board configurations for the purpose of having larger battlefields. As for the moment I have 6 boards so I can use them to create my Conflict and Conquest configurations.

For the Conflict Configuration you use 2 sets of Epic boards, you cut half of the last row and you fit them together. For the Conquest Configuration you take your Epic boards and between them you insert another Epic set with the sides cut. You put them side by side.

You can download the Conflict and Conquest PSD if you want to see the boards cuts.

War of the Ring – Tracking Tokens Green Velvet Pouch

I just discovered a green velvet pouch to hold my War of the Ring Board Game tracking tokens. It fits the game look perfectly and cost me 10$ !

RISK 2210 – Report and Graphs

This is an Excel file I created to keep track of the game and generate statistics on the dominated territories. There is 6 players because of the RISK 2210 Revolution custom rules I will put online soon but you can use it with any number of gamers. You can download the file here : risk-2210-report.zip

RISK 2210 – Revolution Scenario V1.0

I just completed my Revolution Scenario for RISK 2210. It’s an add-on to add a little fun…a little chaos on the table for those too confident with the statistics and strategy of this Board Game. I will take your comments and make it evolve on demand. The robotic suit is a representation of what the Reblels could use to counter-attack the robots of the 5 armies. You can download the rules here: RISK_2210_Revolution_v1.0.zip

War of the Ring – Storage Solution

As with any Board Game, the original box can be customized to better store the pieces and easily organize them. I bought this at Wal-Mart and it is the best fit I could find. The original War of the Ring box is 15 1/2″ by 10 1/2″ by approximately 3″ high so there is only a small gap for the cards and just enough room for the Board.

Axis&Allies 1940 Global – Industrial Complexes Replacement

The other day I visited my favorite Roleplaying Game and Board Game store in Montreal, Le Valet de Coeur, and I discovered some Board Game wooden pieces to replace the cardboard industrial complexes. Considering their importance in the game I thought it would be a nice to have.

Axis&Allies 1940 Global – Printable Roundels Stickers

Playing this Board Game I soon realized that managing scientific achievements and IPCs was very difficult with as mush as 6 to 9 people around the table. I decided to print the IPCs Sheet, National Objective and Scientific Achievement Sheet on a 11″x17″ and put it on a magnetic board. I needed more country stickers to put on magnets so I created a 300 dpi stickers sheet for an Avery.com template #05472 and sticker sheet #02102.

You can download the package here.

 

Axis&Allies 1940 Global – Double Dice Tray and Combat Zone

With the incredible size of this Board Game and the number of pieces on the table it was rapidly becoming a problem to roll the dices. I wanted a somewhat compact solution for the combat zone and I wanted to incorporate a dice tray, so I came up with this idea.

• Dice Tray total size: 10″ x 30″
• MDF 9 1/2″ x 29 1/2″ x 1/8″ (slightly smaller then the tray to hide borders)
• Green felt 9 1/2″ x 29 1/2″
• 3/4″ square wood rods
  • 2 x 30″
  • 4 x 8 1/2″
  • There mesurements will vary if you use que angular end model.
• 8 x 1 1/2″ (8 screws) wood screws
• 8 x 3/4″ (14 screws) wood screws
• Varnish
• Foam core board
• Your favorite combat zone sheet (I choose the one created by slackercs from boardgamegeek.com)

Axis&Allies 1940 Global – Wood Frame and Extra Zones

When I played this Board Game for the first time I realized that some zones, mainly in Western Europe, where pretty small. We had some difficulties with a lot of units in the same zone. This gave me an idea. Creating a section next to the board for 10 zones in witch we could put the units in a crowded war zone. I integrated the zones with a wooden frame so that everything would fit together. Download all files and pictures.
