About this model
A weathered wooden post mill with a tall body on a timber base, four lattice sails and a set of steps at the back. It covers about 20 ft by 19 ft, four squares on a side, and stands about 23 ft high.
Use it on farmland, hilltops and the edges of villages. A windmill is a landmark and a vantage point, and its turning sails make a dramatic backdrop. Inside the cramped space and steep stairs make for awkward fights, and its sacks of flour can be split to create a choking cloud.
Ideas for the table
- A miller has vanished, and the windmill sails still turn at night with no wind.
- Goblins have taken over a windmill and use it as a lookout over the valley.
- The party fights a creature inside a windmill while the sails threaten to throw anyone near them.
