![]() The cheapest (and smallest) is their Skeletal Dragon by Bob Olley, which can serve as the Zombie Dragon. However, if you are willing to fork out the cash, Reaper Miniatures make a number of undead dragons that can be used for these. The Zombie Dragon and the Dracolich require huge models, so replacing them with metal miniatures can be expensive. Heresy and Wyrd Miniatures both produce nice Flesh Golem models that can be used for Castle Ravenloft, but my personal favourite is the one by Reaper, which is closest in conception to the Golem in the game, who relies primarily on brute strength when attacking (with a Slam that does 2 damage and throws the player 'deeper into the dungeon'). Three of the Villains (the Flesh Golem, Zombie Dragon and Dracolich) require larger models.Ī number of companies have made Flesh Golems. Kobold Command Pack from Otherworld Miniatures with a Chieftain, a Shaman and three other Kobolds The excellent paint job on this miniature is by krysset80 from the Forum of Doom. Unfortunately, this werewolf has been named Ollie ("Ollie? Thats a terrible name for a werewolf").īut somehow, Ollie does not seem as threatening as the werewolf from Otherworld Miniatures, maybe because he just looks a lot more well-fed. Heresy also make a Werewolf figure, in their unique style.įenris Games also make a Werewolf Berserker miniature, which can be used for the part, although it is 36mm high and possibly a little on the large side. These are Klak, the Kobold Sorceror, for which the Kobold Shaman from their Kobold Command pack can be used, and the Werewolf (from the Wilderness Encounters line). Two of them can be represented by miniatures from Otherworld. There are eight Villains in Castle Ravenloft. The cheapest option is Reaper, and this is probably the best one too as you probably would not want to spend too much money on a rat swarm. There are a number of manufacturers that produce Rat Swarm miniatures including Games Workshop, Reaper and Freebooter. Also, if you want a third Wraith (since the Otherworld pack only comes with two), there is a Heresy Wraith that can be purchased as a single figure.Īnother Monster encountered in Castle Ravenloft is the Rat Swarm. My recommendation would be to use Heresy figures for the Ghouls and Zombies, and Otherworld for all the others. However, Heresy does go for an exaggerated, comic-book style in its sculpting, which may not be to everyone's taste. They are also cheaper, although the quality of their sculpting is superb, and, in my humble opinion, superior to that of the Otherworld Ghouls. The Heresy Ghouls have more character than those from Otherworld, and include a set of running/crawling Ghouls. Otherworld also make Kobolds, Gargoyles, Wolves and a set of Large Spiders.Ī set of wolves from Otherworld MiniaturesĪn alternative is offered by Heresy Miniatures, which produces Zombies, Ghouls and a Wraith. Except for the Wraiths, these are all conveniently provided in batches of three, with the added advantage of not all being identical.Ī trio of Skeletons from Otherworld Miniatures They produce Skeleton, Zombie, Wraith and Ghoul miniatures, all ideal for use in Castle Ravenloft. Otherworld Miniatures makes an excellent range (designed to capture the imagery of Dungeons and Dragons in the first place) that can be used for these. Most of the Monsters in the game are Undead. Three kinds of miniatures are provided with the Castle Ravenloft game - Monsters, Villains and Heroes (Villains are essentially unique Monsters who are harder to defeat).
