I’ve been playing 15mm Frostgrave, Stargrave, and Rangers of Shadowdeep for about a year now, using the small scale to make it portable for taking with me and playing with my wife on trips to the cabin or other spots. One thing I will warn of is that 15mm printed minis are much more fragile than their larger counterparts. I always use magnet sheeting to magnetize my minis now after more than one occasion of finding a box of rubble where minis should be even after the box was handled with care.

@@atkbovine Not sure what Kelimar uses, but I've largely used the sheet magnets that you can find in craft stores to line the bottom of the boxes that I store stuff in and use washers for bases...same thing I've used with larger scale minis. It also helps smaller ones in that it raises their base up a little bit more, if you include one, which encourages players to pick them up by the base rather than the mini, which also helps protect the mini from some minor damage and wear

Like AzraelThanatos uses I use the craft store sheets, or the magnetic strips you can get from the dollar store. One thing I will say is do not use strong magnets for this! It doesn’t take a lot to hold these light magnets in place, and they also aren’t heavy enough to keep stronger magnets from flying at each other when they’re on the gaming table. You only need to disintegrate one pair of minis to learn that lesson haha.

When I eventually pick up a resin printer, I definitely want to give this scale a shot. Warcry is fantastic, and GW dropping the core and faction rules for free is such a smart move. *Now do it for AoS, 40k, and all of Kill Team.*
I recently started using mini-miniatures for playing D&D (using an FDM printer to print my models at about a height of 15-20mm), and am loving being able to print so many in such a little time, while not taking up all my shelving. One thing I found really useful was gluing a 3mm magnet to the bottom of each model. That way, I can actually use a metal sheet as a board and print out floor maps to place on top of it. The models stick to the metal and I can change out the paper to have different settings. Plus, when packing stuff away, I have a case with strips of metal in them that the miniatures stick to. This saves any from damage as I bundle them around the place.

That's awesome! I would definitely play some small scale D&D. I thought about doing magnets, and I probably will for subsequent versions, at least for transport. There are 3D printable bases with the magnet holes already built into the bottom of the base, so something like that could definitely work while still getting the small minis on nice bases!

ooooh!!! Making it mini scale sounds like an awesome solution!! That's one thing keeping me away from using mini's. The scale of everything. Having played 40k and fantasy warhammer, I look back at my childhood room, stacked with terrain pieces :-p Now as an adult with my own house, I haven't got the room to store all that stuff anymore if I'd start making terrain and mini's for D&D
Dude this video is an amazing resource and you made painting those tiny minis look so quick and fun. Thank you!
Really enjoyed this casey, thank you
Thank you for showing step by step how to put models on bases & then get everything to print correctly. I'd never tried the export everything as a group, then. ring it back in to support... This changes everything for me as a fledgling 3D printer hobbyist!!! A simple, easy to follow tutorial that I'm sure took tons of work on your end to edit vs how much of the video it takes up, bravo to you Sir for taking the time to include it! I found this channel through Goobertown & Paint Bravely the Podcast. It has helped me in numerous ways to level up my hobbying already and I've only made it through a fraction of the backlog of videos so far.
I really really hope Pockethammer gains more traction. The storage, costs, painting time and size of the board are the biggest factors that push away newcomers. Smaller minis are easier to store, paint and cheaper while the playing space is also smaller. With that literally everyone can become a miniwargamer. Wich is awesome. Thanks for your work :)
Thank you for the ideas🎉
Accessibility is one of the main things that have kept me from actually trying to play miniature war games and not just build and paint minis. This gets me super excited!

Thanks for the idea and all the hard work showing us what's possible! I can already see my Saurian warband facing of against the Slaves to Darkness!
gluing some metal to the playing surface, and some magnets in the terrain would help a lot with stability of some of those pieces, the pillars in particular

Came for the small minis. Stayed for the fanny pack.
If you are planning to do this again I could not recommend installing blender enough. You did basic merging using lychee, but if you import the stls into blender you can acrually merge them individually and properly. You can also resize them to your desired scale at that point. Furthermore if the models come in pieces for different variations you can stick them together in blender and export your desired poses as stl’s. Have a tank and want to add one of your models to sit on the roof? Do it in blender. The basic controls are really simple and you can ignore the advanced use if you want. All you need is moving them around and merging.
This video makes me happy in the best kinda way. I wasn't sure how Titan Forge minis would print at a reduced scale, but have been working on a small scale set for DnD (easier travel). Absolutely amazing video as always! Keep up the awesome work!

Another way to do the board itself is using a small art canvas. Many hobby stores and even dollar stores sell small canvases in a scale that's right for a 10/15mm skirmish board. Some are even flat canvases, with a very thin profile, if fitting them in your portable storage container is an issue. The best part is these canvases, naturally, are made to be painted. So you can paint an overhead view of the battlefield. Brushes, sponges, and even stamps can be employed to achieve the desired level of fidelity. And there's no shortage of battlefield maps out there that can be used for inspiration (or just copying wholesale, at a smaller scale).

Casey! Great project. Warcry is probably GW tightest game right now in terms of having playable rules and consistently formatted warband lists. They are, of course, many other fantasy skirmish and battle rules that can be played in 15mm with the right minis. The only challenge to scaling down Warcry specifically is the bespoke models in each warband. But as you pointed out there are STLs for almost everything available today.

I've seen a number of people doing just this online. At the 10 to 15 mm scale do you convert inches to cm for distance? Or do you use some other increment when you scale down?
@eBayMiniatureRescues
Жыл бұрын
I tried that with my last small-scale build, but it doesn't directly translate. It's 2.54 cm to an inch, so you have to multiply the number every time (Movement 3 inches = 7.62cm.) In this case, I scaled everything down by 50%, so all I did was scale down a standard measuring tool that you would use in a full-sized game so it was in scale with the models and terrain. It works great, but you have to use the measurement tool in the box, otherwise, you could just halve the value of the unit's movement and use a regular tape measure or whippy stick.

I feel obligated to tell everyone that automatic supports are not a great solution. You will probably end up with print failures from using it--or losing details, at the very least. Use the find islands tool, and support all of those by hand. Then continue adding supports until you don't have failures from lack of supports (3D printing can be tricky). Also, isn't a new version of Warcry coming out? GW doesn't do anything customer friendly...
@eBayMiniatureRescues
Жыл бұрын
True enough, supporting models for printing is a whole art on its own! For all of the models I printed in this video, I used the Lychee "Magic" button, it generally does a good job finding most of the spots I would probably support on my own, and in this scale, it was still kind of overkill. I'm sure someone who knew how to support minis properly wouldn't need nearly as many to get these to print out alright. I didn't end up having any failures or issues, and I'm 99% sure it's because of scale. If these were normal 28mm 32mm models then for sure there would be failures, that's probably why I don't print very often unless it's for a specific reason. Yeah, the new Warcry just came out, and there is new terrain and special rules that go with it. I'll probably pick up the core book just to have those specific rules (which I've heard are actually quite good) but for getting into it, the free core rules are more than enough to get a good game in. Basic, but still just as good as the original vanilla game. That's really where the surprise comes in right? They generally aren't consumer friendly, but here we are with a good ruleset and cards to play every faction in the game currently. If you're into it then I imagine buying a book to expand the ruleset wouldn't be a huge leap, and if you have models and terrain then you don't need the $250 box, which is really weird for GW to do. I think it's a step in the right direction at the very least and I'm glad they made it available.

I enjoy it quite a bit, and I do like that I can teach someone how to play in just a few minutes, it really helps introduce new players to wargaming!

It's certainly the best ruleset from GW at the moment, but that's not a very high bar.
Any plans to try some Pocket 40k?

Definitely plans! My goal is to get to them all at some point. As my collection keeps growing I need something to do with them lol.
Prolly not the best place for this but ... I'm thinking I want to make up a premade oil wash. Have all the stuff ofcourse. Is there anything I should know or do to ensure it lasts. I plan to make it up at the right consistency put it in a 15 or 20ml dropper bottle. Then ill have it on hand for when I may need to panel line or grimdark a single model up without the extra hassel, time and waste (as I cant seem to just make a small batch. It always way more than i needed.) So to keep RTU is there anything else that Id need to add to up the recipie besides the oil paint and mineral spirits ? Any help is appreciated. Also smart assed and trolling comments are extremely welcome 😍.

Nah, just oil paint and mineral spirits. I always mix mine by feel/eyeball it when I paint a model so I can't help you with ratios.

@@jc7997ajon second thought, might wanna look up putting it in a bottle though, maybe there could be some issues with that, idk. But I'm 100% sure that for mixing it up as you use it, mineral spirits and oil paint are all you need.

You are printing with auto supports and it actually works ??

I know right? The models are so small that they just work really well with auto supports. The forest dragon minis were designed for minimal to no supports already, but the fact that the Titan forge ones worked as well as they did really has me convinced!
So basically one page rules fantasy, scaled down ?
