- Avrean Fort Modular OpenLOCK Structure. With this set you can build large forts in an ancient Roman style - such as the one in the renders - as well as fortifications for most cultures that would use wood to build defenses. If you want to start smaller, you can make isolated watchtowers, simple wooden bastions or even small early medieval castles. You could even just print sections of the walls and use them for the fortified palisades of the villages that are closer to the dangers of the wild as well as those of small towns - I'm thinking viking, especially if combined with round shields!

They come with two parts: front and back. Combined, they create a tall palisade made with barely worked wooden trunks (at the front) that is reinforced with beams that help keeping the battlements walkable (the back). You can always combine two "front" sides instead of a "front" and a "back" side to have a more fortified looking wall, or you can use two "back" sides to make solid scaffolding for some construction, wooden bridges, etc... As always, these are modular in length and height: you'll be able to make the wall shorter or taller depending on your desires. You can even make it multi-layered by staking a second wall on top of the first one, and so on (more on all that in the instructions).

There are ladders, stairs and working doors! Yeah, this time it made sense to make them since the large beams that make up the walls would easily hide the magnets that make them practical. Both the massive fort walls and the smaller "side" ones have magnets on the top and bottom for that effect. For the battlements, instead, you can choose between regular trunk points, railings, open ends and a few styles of moving fortifications (they work too if magnetized!) - those Helm Deep wooden planks on top of the main doors seemed a cool idea and look!

The towers join seamlessly to the structure of the walls thanks to the "back floors" that have removable top beams - they also have four height options for the backs to add more variety. If you don't want to magnetize the whole thing and care less about variation, just print the joined bits or glue them together! I like the ancient Roman "watchtower close to the wall look", but you can always just make towers with more walls: choose the section that looks the best in the instructions and print what you prefer :)

- Avrean Fort Modular Tents. I designed these to be orderly, reliable and solid modular tents that should also be versatile enough to be usable for more than just a Roman-style camp or fort. They have three layers: ground, upper and roof. You can print just the roofs to have simpler tents that could be carried and used by adventurers, or you can add the bottom layer to them so that they represent the soldier tents shown in the renders above and - if you need tents that stand out - you can print the upper walls to make them as tall as you like - although that could look weird. They are modular in length too, and there are a couple of versions of folds and doors, so that by printing some regular and some mirrored a whole camp of them shouldn't look too repetitive. The ropes come with magnet slots to make them easier to store and harder to break.

- Avrean Legionary Objects and Props. Since the theme of the release was ancient Roman, I designed this set to bring the fort alive in that style. There are weapons (gladii, javelins, a collection of tower shields) and armors (chest and helmets) - they are soldiers after all - but there are also items necessary for regular soldier life: sandals!, lamps, pans, bags, cups, a campfire, etc... You'll find panoplies, drums, bedrolls, the tools to dig and cut wood, stools as well as tables and beds for centurions. Finally, a few insignias and more details are there to decor it all as much as you like.

- Avrean Scorpion War Machine. This is one of the most iconic Ancient Roman war machines, able to shoot long darts, stones or metal balls. There are two versions of it, as well as the rack, bolts and a "ready to be carried" version. These kind of objects make fortifications more alive and interactive - if a war machine is there, I as a player would do anything I could to go and use it! - but they are not useful only for that. What about a party following a thug inside what they think is an empty warehouse just to find it stacked with heavy weaponry such as these machines? To whom would this shipment be destined? What would the party do with access to that much weaponry (and/or dark wealth if sold?). I like putting plot lines that feel contemporary in a fantasy world to challenge my friends at the table, and captivate their interest!
