A beautiful orc tower kit from Fat Dragon. As with all of their other products that I have seen, the instructions are clear, easy to understand, and even a little bit fun to read. The use of color and shading on this piece really give a depth and dimension to the overall look of the tower. The Fat Dragon folks are not only very skilled at making attractive papercraft structures, but also at making sure their customers can get the same results when they print them and put them together.

This product is a good value if you like mechs, papercraft or strategy games. It includes the game's rules, eight models (five mechs and three different vehicles), 3D terrain (hex blocks of different heights to create cliffs and walls) and terrain tiles. The game seems a bit basic at the moment -- yet it took me reading the rules twice to get it, as some information is easy to miss (like the tracking of damage) or only briefly explained (e.g. the use of "reserve power".) I liked the design of the mechs -- most parts are boxes or simple prisms glued together, so I hope they will be easy to assemble. They also look very good, fitting the "weird war" theme. The only thing I miss is the customization of weapons but I hear that's coming in an expansion.

E-Z Dungeons: Deluxe Edition is my first foray into the paper model hobby. I'm hooked. This is a great hobby for someone who's looking for some quiet craft time and my kids love the idea of moving through 3-d dungeons in their PathFinder sessions. The models look great and the modular aspect of the kit really does help to build a quick dungeon.
On the downside, I find that I'm struggling to get my printer to print the pdf's to the proper size. I'd like to see FDG add some of the 8 inch items in a landscape format to allow printers to easily print the entire image without shrinking. Also, a little more explanation beyond the introduction pdf in the kit would be nice. Perhaps some more detailed layouts than what's already included. For example, the layouts included are great but it would help me a lot if those layouts also included suggested parts lists so I wouldn't have to spend too much time figuring out what to print for my first few rooms. Obviously the kit is based on modular design, but suggestions to newbies never hurt.
Beyond those minor complaints I've already recommended this system and Fat Dragon Games to my friends. I look forward to purchasing more kits in the future.

Downloaded this as a quick, cheap alternative to resin, plastic or scratch-built western buildings for use with THW's Six-Gun Sound rules. I must say I am very impressed by the quality of the product, especially the textures and variety on offer. I had built some of the structures reduced to 15mm scale with no difficulty. Highly recommended.

Hey guys this is another great product by Fat Dragon Games. However, if it is certainly an advanced model that will take some time to build. If you have never done card stock modeling before do some simpler projects before you tackle this one. I have recently built one for my private collection. If you would like to see a complete build video please visit my you tube channel and watch @ : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=de0z5j83RYI .

I used it in a space pirate game with my students after school in our Games Club. They loved the game and ship. It's details helped make it a believeable scenario. Great stuff. I have photos posted on Boardgamegeek.com under Wargamer204.

Wow, this tower is legendary! I deliberated over this one for a long time, at least 2 months; I wish I had purchased it sooner.
I really like how this tower looks like the human defensive tower in the World of Warcraft. The lowest floor flare and the buttresses combine to make a very tough looking foundation. I could see this being the tower of a reclusive mage, the lone defense of a remote frontier settlement, or part of a kingdom's defensive border.
This badboy is physically sturdy, too. The bottom floor with its double wall and buttresses could probably win a high school engineering fair prize.
The tower takes about 3 or 4 sheets of card stock per floor, which is reasonable given the final model's detail.
The instructions are fairly amazing, especially compared to some other paper modeling instructions out there. They are very step by step, slowing down for the hairy parts and completely illustrated with photographs.
If you are thinking about this one at all, I highly recommend it. The price seemed a bit steep to me, which is why I hesitated for so long, but after biting the bullet I am very pleased with the bang to buck ratio. This does include the ruined upper levels, as well.
Also, while labor intensive, the 3D machiolations are totally worth it.

being i run gaming on a tight budget and have to take my gaming stuff on the go, i find your products very easy and require little to moderate of time to put together. The quality of the print outs are great. assembly of the products seem minimal even when the object has many parts it never seems like it takes much time to assemble them. you have very clear instructions on how to assemble the items and from someone who has read many how to manuals you leave no details out. i do not think any gm who is on a tight budget or on the go should pass this up. it gets a natural 20 from me.

The wide variety of options for this set makes it a worthwhile addition toward the other Fat Dragon Games sets.

The dice tower works great and looks cool. My players like having a means to roll their dice and not have it fly across the table, or end up on the floor.

A nice, simple collection of basic furnishings, easy to assemble, and nicely detailed. This set goes a long way for the price!
