WizKids Warlock Tiles: Dungeon Tiles I

What you see in the photos is three sets of tiles, plus various bits and bobs (Icons of the Realms Wall of Fire, Yawning Portal Beds & Bottles; Bars & Tables, a cusom sculpted gingerbread golem) Once you graduate from mats and paper maps to the realm of 3D tiles, there are three big contenders: 3D Printing/crafting, Dwarven Forge, and Warlock. - 3D printing has the greatest potential, but will also take you the most time. Depending on how you value your dollar, crafting your own tiles can be the most expensive of the three. - Dwarven Forge is amazing. It's also amazingly expensive, and rarely in stock. It is a luxury item for people with an unlimited wallet. - Warlock comes in at the perfect price point and level of ease. It is an attractive, durable, (semi-)affordable product that allows you to build dungeons in almost any shape you want. I say almost because some tight turns don't quite fit the way you want, and sometimes a slight edit is needed to tweak a published setting for the sake of ease of use. This is rare, however, and you can almost always find a workaround that still looks polished and attractive. The redesigned clips are a breeze to use, and the terrain holds together for any number of uses. There is a bit of "grey box syndrome" until you start adding furnishings - every dungeon will look the same: a series of grey rectangles. I highly reccomend that you rely on scatter terrain, either crafted or purchased, to liven up the rooms. My next purchase will likely be either the curves or the angles expansion to add a littl more variation to my grey rectangles. Overall, I cannot recommend these, and other wizkids dungeon products, highly enough. These are a homerun, and I encourage everyone to stock up, in case these ever leave the market like so many mini products of the past.

I love miniature painting, but with a full time job, home remodeling and a 7 mo old there's no time to paint. Enter Warlock tiles! They're beautiful, sturdy (I was surprised at the weight), and they lock together nice and snug. This box definitely provides enough on its own for a couple of good sized rooms. I do think that practically speaking you will want two or three of these if you have an efficient group in a dungeon crawl. Still, $240 (at the time of review) for an entire decent sized dungeon that's pre-painted with working doors is a steal in my book. I would say these are 4.5 stars. However I'm rounding up to help offset the already very negative reviews for something I believe to not be deserving. Pros: - Beautiful. Obviously a professional painter could do it better, but set it on the table and sit normal and there's no difference. Color is great, detail is great, and the tiles aren't all the same. The box comes with two 4x4 tiles and surprisingly I found they were not the same mold! - Efficient. No space is wasted. All walls are on the exterior or slotted between two interior tiles. You get 100% of the floor space here. - Sturdy. Build your rooms ahead of time and drop them in place as your players discover them. I connected about 10 tiles in a strip and picked them up by 1 on the end. It of course bent A LOT and I was scared, but nothing was damaged. And there's more than 1 place to put clips, so if you're very concerned you can use 2 clips per side (8 clips on a tile, excessive, but solid) Cons - My fingers were a little sore after pulling out all the clips. I may looks for a storage alternative where I can leave the clips in, or just keep pliers handy while building (per the manufacturer's recommendation anyway). -- I do want to address the negativity around these clips. 1) they're optional. Just like dwarven forge you can just set these on the table next to each other and it will work fine. You might want to toss a clip between tiles that have interior walls, but otherwise no issue. Also if you rock the tiles back and forth while manipulating them they pop in and out very easily. Also keep in mind they WILL wear down. They're plastic. Straight out of the box they're stiff but they'll wear down with time. - The wall length is a hair longer than the floor length. This can be remedied with clips and everything stretches and fits nicely in place. But while doing a dry fit you'll notice things don't line up exactly, which was odd at first. Ended up not being an issue in the end, but still worth mentioning. - Some of the pieces are not aligned well with each other. Something was off in the gluing process. However these still end up working fine as the plastic is malleable. So all of these cons are more quality concerns than practical ones. At the end of the day they work exactly like I want them too and I'm very happy with the product. I'm sure future iterations will be even better. I can't wait for angled and curved walls, and CAVES!

I love these. As a DM who preps possible encounters, they work fine. Yes the clips are tough to use, but snap them in one side at a time, using a pliers or the flat edge of a screwdriver, and you're good to go. The trade off for tougher assembly is a very sturdy build. They look great on the table and enhance our game. Looking forward to more.

First off these tiles are beautiful for pre painted. They are coated in two layers one black and then he next being brown or grey. People are complaining that it’s a little tough to put the clips in but i don’t think so at all. I’m 14 years old and some of these grown ass adults are complaining. It was so easy and my thumbs were fine after 2 hours of building. I love it. I’m going to save up and buy it again.

The box arrived broken and soaked but the Amazon box was dry and undamaged so it was damaged before shipping... Very disappointed. Got a new one the next day, will be sending this one back great kit and great service. Great for fans of D&D.

Los warlock tiles son un 10/10 no se puede equivocar uno con esta compra. Se optímeme bastante por el precio haciendo escenarios que solo veía en videos o gente que se dedica a pintar y diseñar piezas de escenario. Estupendo para alguien con poco tiempo que quiere una partida en otro nivel.

fabrication très satisfaisante Néanmoins prix un peu élevé

Realmente es una marca muy buena, sellan los suelos y los muros perfectamente y son de un realismo increíble. Encuentro que es un poco caro por la cantidad que trae, es necesario tener varios packs de cada para tener libertad de creación, pero la calidad es muy buena.
