I have been making a few extras for the Chainsaw Warrior game. By accessories, I don’t mean a tiger-stripe handbag; it seemed like a nice idea to represent some of the traps as actual elements on the board. First up, the Weakened Floorboards. These were made from sliced up lolly stick stuck to mounting board. If the model discovering them fails a roll, they can fall right through to the floor below – good luck catching up with your friends before the zombies get you.

Next is a spiked pit trap. Adding insult to injury after falling in, a model (if he survives), must then climb out. This was made with sharpened matchsticks and cocktails sticks on a mounting board base. For strength they have been glued into holes in the board and then sliced off flush on the other side with a scalpel.

Finally, a secret door. We had nothing to represent these with in the last game except a coin. This one has been made from mounting board and painted to resemble the illustration in the original game. These can be placed anywhere in the room they are found in, which can allow them to take a massive short cut.
