Top Down Armies: Human V Orcs

Dramascape Miniatures Volume 08

This product contains two topdown miniature armies, one orc and one human army set on a green field in addition to a 48 x 30 inch grass battlefield map with a road running north to south in the center of the map and a plateau along the eastern side of the map. Each army has melee, missile, magic, gunpowder guns, and mounted characters. The human knights are riding warhorses and the orcs are riding ankylosaurs. The orc army has a bolt thrower as a siege weapon as well. Each miniature is included as a 300 dpi png file and the board as a 100 dpi jpeg file so that you can make use of this product on your virtual tabletop (VTT). In total there are 12 different human footman miniatures, 3 human knights, 18 orc footman miniatures, 2 orc riders, and 1 orc artillery that you can print out and use on the tabletop or use with your VTT. 

This product is the first one in our Versus line which will pit two topdown armies versus each other on a single battlefield map. Each new Versus product will include two topdown armies and one battlefield for them to fight on expanding both the number of places to fight and the types of armies that can be paired together.

This product can be used in multiple ways. The intended purpose is for use as two armies to fight each other on the battlefield for any number of wargaming scenarios. The miniatures and battlefield can also be used in RPG games as a massive scale battle scenario or skirmish scenario. The miniatures themselves can be also be used for groups of RPG Game Master characters or single characters (either Game Master or Player Character) in RPG games. The battlefield itself can be used as an encounter map in any RPG game close to a well-traveled road or path in the wilderness.

For RPG games, the plateau in the east makes an excellent spot for enemies to use as a lookout for caravans or groups on the road. They then ride out and ambush them on the road or try and extort protection money from them before fighting.

For wargames, it is suggested that you start one side in the western plains and the other side in the eastern plateau. Objectives are to wipe out the opposing army, or be the first to establish a supply line by having a single unit at the north, center, and south part of the road with no enemies on the road or adjacent to it. A quicker game would have one side entering from the north road and one from the south road with the objective of wiping out the enemy forces.

very useful, I am using the images to play Songs of Blades and hero's on Roll20 and Pathfinder with Fantasy grounds. My only criticism is the battle map included is a bit bland [...]

Hiermit verlassen wir die Karten und wenden uns den anderen Produkten zu, die auch ihren Charme haben. Die Top Down Armies sind Counter, die sowohl für Tabletops benutzt werden können, aber auch um Gegner und eigene Charaktere im Tischrollenspiel auf [...]

This is another excellent product by DramaScape. A huge map, and two top down armies: Humans and Orcs. Everything is top notch as usual, excellent minis and very reasonably priced too. Each army offres a selection of infantry, cavalry, heroes, spell ca [...]

One thing that the paper wargaming community is desperately lacking is quality top-down figures... or at least we were until Dramascape released these figures. All of the character and style of the plastic miniatures, but the ease and convenienc [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
