Victorian Urban Barricades
A gaming accessory for your B'hoys Towne (and other) Victorian Adventure Gaming layouts. Urban Barricades depict impromptu defensive works made up of items readily available in 19th Century cities and towns - chairs, tables, benches, dressers, wheelbarrows, boxes, bales, bags, and barrels.

Whether defending the neighborhood from rival Gangs of New York, controlling the streets of Revolutionary Europe, or providing cover for the soldiers and their families at Lucknow, Urban Barricades provide a distinctive air of improvisation--if not desperation--to the dramas playing out around them.

All are unpainted resin castings, between 3/4" and 1" in height.

The Dynamite Deck!
Gives any Role Playing or War Game Rules More "Bang for the Buck."

Be they Wild West, Colonial, or even WW II rules, if hurled dynamite sticks or planted charges (TNT or black powder) can appear in a game scenario, the Dynamite Deck will add a new dimension of fun, suspense, and decision making. The special mix of 16 full-color cards indicate possibilities of burning out, being a dud - or going off in the faces of the untrained!

By adding or subtracting cards, players can give advantages to characters trained in using explosives to blow bridges, railroad tracks, gates, etc. The Dynamite Deck adds a realistic--and exciting!--element of suspense to play.

Full instructions included, two sheets full color card stock, cutting required.


The Dynamite Deck - $8.00, plus postage.
