Bring your tabletop battles to life with these Monster Warband Starter Sets – curated miniature bundles designed to give Dungeon Masters everything they need to run a memorable encounter straight out of the box.

Each set contains a themed group of 5 miniatures (selected from our wide range of artists):

Perfect for:

• New Dungeon Masters building their first encounters

Every warband is carefully selected based on D&D lore and encounter balance, ensuring the creatures feel natural together and create exciting combat scenarios.

🎲 What You’ll Receive

• 5x highly detailed 3D printed miniatures
• Supplied unpainted (standard grey) – use as is, or get creative as they are ready to be painted when you recieve them
• Bases included
• Scaled for 32mm tabletop play

🧩 Why These Sets?

Instead of buying random minis, each warband gives you a complete story hook. Some examples:

• A goblin raiding party

Drop them straight into your campaign with minimal prep.
