DRAGONSHIRE: Fold-Flat Building Expansion #1
Publisher: Fat Dragon Games
by Jerry J. [Verified Purchaser]

This is another great set from Fat Dragon Games with a newer concept of having both glued and folding components. The graphics are of the highest quality and some of the best I've seen with paper modeling. That alone deserves 5 stars. This set compliments the Dragonshire Deluxe buildings nicely and I would recommend this kit to anyone. The concept of the fold-flat system with interchangeable parts is very attractive and also deserves 5 stars, though it's a work in progress. I gave the set 4 stars however, because I feel the layers overall should have been broken down more for better customizing. The roof dormers should also have been available in the 'tudor' look. Perhaps a couple other building layers (wood-style from DS deluxe , another stone or brick, etc.) would have helped as well. The fold-flat concept needs some minor fine tuning. The insert tabs on the wall dormer, for example, should be higher as to avoid that add on from falling forward, or at least have another insert tab at the top. Because many of the model components aren't glued together you'll need to reinforce the pieces with additional card stock to cut down on the 'bowing' of the roofs and walls. Again, apart from making some minor adjustments I think this concept is really cool and has a lot of potential. I look forward to the next installment.

I like this ruin kit as it works well in a lot of gaming adventures. The detail looks great! The pieces fit better together than I was expecting, which was nice. All in all the model went together with little difficulty. That said, here are a few suggestions that would have improved this kit - replace the pillars with the ones from the Desert Ruin model to give a more realistic feel. Also add stairs, a ladder or something to get to the top level. Speaking of the levels, I cut out the top and bottom pieces separatey and spray glued them to foam core to give better support, especially when using pewter miniatures vs. plastic ones. Finally, have more options for plants. While the one is great you have to print out an entire sheet to get more. Different types of plants and ground layer options would have been very useful. Overall I would recommend this model.

This is a fantastic set for a medieval look and feel to our fantasy games. The art work is truly amazing and the versatility in changing up the buildings helps the creative building process a lot of fun. I would highly recommend this set to anyone.
