About this model
A flight of rough grey stone steps, mossy and solid, rising one full storey. The block is about 5 ft wide, 5 ft deep and 5 ft high, filling one square and stepping up to a raised level.
Use it to link a lower floor with a terrace, a walkway, a dais or a raised platform. Stairs give height to a map, which matters for archers and line of sight, and they make a classic choke point. A flight of stairs at the end of a hall tells players there is somewhere higher to go.
Ideas for the table
- Defenders hold the top of the stone stairs while orcs try to force their way up.
- A spiral of mossy steps climbs a ruined tower, and each landing has its own guardian.
- The stairs of a temple are trapped so that a lever turns them into a slide.
