Perhaps Dargoth if your campaign features Boneclaws, you could reward your characters with HEV suits and also pump action shotguns....
hmmm
...perhaps not!

Indeed they do. They're a rather interesting sort of "undead" actually. Although, I'm not really sure how popular they'd be in the Realms.
Ed actually introduced a Boneclaw into the realms in one of his recent responses (I seem to recall he was responding to a question about some islands off the Sword coast)
PS My players have told me that if I ever use a Boneclaw in a campaign that they will rename their characters Freeman, Shepard and Calhoon
That doesn't surprise me, even for a second . . .

While no minis news yet an update from last week the Skullcrusher Ogre and the Dire Bear are both Uncommons so they will be alot easier to get (3 out of 8 minis in a booster are Uncommons and there are normally 16-20 Uncommons in a set of 60 minis) |

"DMs who use pre-painted plastic Beholder miniatures kill PCs." . . . Too true, too true. Now, all we need to see is the other variants of the beholder-kin, and miniature campaigns with beholders will be double the fun.
Thanks for the link (and the tip), Dargoth.

WotC have announced that there doing an AT AT for the SW minis line (For the Star Wars challenged: an AT AT is the 4 legged walker that appeared in The Empire Strikes back)
It will be 13" Tall 5" wide and 15" long and will be sold seperately!
Now what does this have to do with D&D minis I hear Alaundo ask, well a AT AT is a Colossal "Creature" so if they can create a Colossal AT AT for the SW line then they can create a Colossal GREAT WYRM for the D&D line!

By Torm... I did not know that they would be that BIG...

Why stop there? I'd like to see some other colossal creatures make it into miniature format as well. Imagine a colossal Pit Fiend sitting across from a party of adventurers on the tabletop... .
Now that would be something.

And then you could see which would win a fight, the great wyrm or the AT-AT! |

Follow up regarding the AT AT
Mike Donais: "I would get in so much trouble if I gave you guys the details about the D&D version of this"
Hopefully it will be a Dracolich! |

Now if only they could put together an Aspect of Tharizdun...
Id much rather they did more FR Aspects
One think I never want to see is an Aspect of Hextor the mini would be absolutely useless to anyone not playing in the Greyhawk campaign |

Well, there is that *really* old theory about Velsharoon being simply part of Tharizdun and the madness he entails. I never put much stock in it. But if you wanted to stretch things that far... .

How many ninja can any world hold? These might be interesting but with that title odds are overpowered. |
