My oh my how that ticking clock of father time goes by…

A year to the day the Internet gave birth to a bouncing baby Ben’sRPGPile.com – a collection of misfit gaming addicts who were hell bent on bringing a better gaming experience to their global D&D RPG brethren.

And what a year it’s been. We’ve been inspired and driven to create a slew of handy home brewed accessories (including our beloved Condition Flags and Hit Dice). We’ve uncovered a clump of handy downloads from fellow skillful inventors (such as the helpful Anatomy of a Combat Turn and Magic Item Cards). And we’ve reviewed a flock of must-have gaming products (including industry legends’ Hirst Arts and Dwarven Forge)

We’ve even blessed the airways with our silly banter and endless laughter with twenty-seven (and counting) weekly video podcasts.

And best of all – we continue to meet a plethora of talented and enthusiastic gamers who simply want to roll for initiative.

Here’s to another year of the ever-growing Pile. Thanks everybody.

The Thanksgiving holiday seem like a perfect time for another installment of our hand painted miniatures. Ben just can’t paint to that ridiculously fine point of detail so he continuously gives thanks to the master craftsmen who can.

The second set of our multi-part metal minis installment includes a gnawing Dwarven skeleton, a mischievous human thief, an evil demon lord, and a brave human fighter.

Ben pulled all these beauties out of the Gamers’ Inn display case during separate joyous store runs. Ya just never know when some gems will poke through the trade-in rubble. You need to survey and sift.

Price varies but typically you’re looking at anywhere from $4 to $15 a mini (depending on the quality of the paint job and popularity of the mini). You can always check out eBay for online finds.

Ben loves to use his unique metal figs as special characters or heroes in his Dungeon and Dragons 4E battles. It raises the party’s kill salivation and also lets the group know the DM means “bitness”.
