Description
The merchant's crate sits undisturbed in the corner of the warehouse — until the rogue notices the false bottom.

- ✔ Compatible with standard 28mm–32mm miniature scales
- ✔ Works on the gaming table and as part of a display diorama
Every tavern storeroom, dungeon antechamber, and harbour dockside is littered with crates just like this one. Mundane in appearance, they serve as cover during ambushes, props for elaborate heists, and the last thing a fleeing bandit ducks behind before the fighter catches up. This wooden crate scatter piece from Ella's Arcanum captures that workhorse quality beautifully — sturdy plank construction, a reinforcing diagonal brace, and just enough wood-grain texture to reward a careful paint job with dry-brushed highlights and a dark wash in the grain lines.
Whether you're dressing a dockside smuggling scene, filling out a castle storeroom, or giving your players something to flip for half cover, a well-placed crate transforms an empty grid into a location with a story. This piece works just as well in a painted display diorama as it does mid-encounter on the battle map.
Perfect for adventurers who:
- Want to add believable cover and clutter to dungeon rooms, taverns, warehouses or harbour scenes
- Are building a scatter terrain collection for immersive battle maps
- Enjoy painting terrain pieces and want strong, defined detail to work with
- Are constructing a diorama or display scene and need supporting props
Encounter Hook:
The party tracks a black-market shipment to a waterfront warehouse. Six crates are stacked between them and the exit — three of them are exactly what they appear to be, two contain contraband, and one contains something that starts making noise. Initiative is rolled before anyone can decide which crate is which.
Scaled to 32mm. Supplied unpainted and ready to prime. As with all detailed terrain pieces, minor surface marks are possible — these are easily tidied up before painting and do not affect the finished result.
