2. Miniatures: Your Company of Heroic Characters!

Now that you've got the rules, it's time to choose a Faction of Characters to battle against your opponent! The Characters in your Company are represented by miniatures on the tabletop. A typical game of Twisted might use 6-10 miniatures per side.

The Faction Box Sets contain all the miniatures you need to start playing! Each Faction Set contains a small ready-made Twisted Company.

 

 

All the miniatures are also available individually so that you can custom build your own force of Characters to suit your playing style, add on to your existing Faction Box Set, or surprise your opponent with a brand new addition to your Faction!

3. Playing Area - Terrain for the Battleground:

Twisted is best played on a 3'x3' (90x90cm) space - any tabletop roughly this size will do. The game works best when the table is filled with lots of terrain to provide hidden alleyways, twists, and turns to make for an interesting and strategic encounter!

You can make your own terrain for Twisted - many people enjoy creating their own Twisted world for games.

We also have a specially created range of laser-cut MDF terrain purpose built for Twisted. This beautiful terrain designed and produced by Miniature Scenery provides the basis for a perfect steampunk-themed Twisted gaming table!
