About this model
A steep black steel stair flight for a fire escape, with open treads and a thin handrail. It links one landing to the next. The run covers about 10 ft by 4.5 ft and rises some 13 ft. Climbing it in a hurry is loud.
Place it between fire escape platforms to let characters climb a building on the map. The stair is narrow and steep, so it works as a single-file route that slows anyone moving up or down. Whoever holds the top step has a clear advantage over someone coming up beneath them.
Ideas for the table
- Two foes fight on the stairs while a third tries to squeeze past them.
- The stairs groan loudly, so every step risks waking the sleeping building.
- Someone has greased the treads, and the climbers need a steady hand.
