The Book of Hrognak (Mounted)

I appreciate the suggestion! I’m fairly experienced with 3D printing and have put over 1000 hours on my Ender 3, but I’ve never been successful at printing miniatures. Always too fragile and low resolution. Resin would definitely be the way to go, but I haven’t gone that direction yet—mostly due to the messiness and lack of space in my hobby room for another printer. I’d be curious to see how it turns out if you decide to give it a try.

If you do make/acquire a 3D scan of the original howdah (the one that's shown on the unit's card), I would definitely be interested in it, as well, as I have also been trying to acquire them for a long time now, and the original creator no longer produces them.

There is no official file for the howdah, as the maker of it made it from scratch. As far as scanning it, I don't do that kind of thing. However. The howdah itself doesn't look that complex. It looks very easy to design in a 3d program. When and if I get around to making one,I'm not sure I will make them for others or even sell the stl. I also do not share my designs on places like thingiverse anymore either. Awhile back I had folks use my files and were selling prints of them on etsy without my permission or even acknowledging that I was the maker of them. I'm not super interested in making others money off of my work though there may be others on here still willing to do things for free. I do know there are some versions of the howdah on thingiverse already made if you'd like to use those.

I am sure this has been discussed by the design team, but I am just too curious. How do people feel about running the Trihorn like this so other characters can ride it?

TRIHORN
145 points (120 delta)

LIFE
4

HOWDAH RIDER
A figure can move on to Trihorn's Howdah for 1 move, but it must end its move on the Howdah. A figure can leave the Howdah for 1 move and move to an adjacent tile, taking height into account. Trihorn's height does not count towards fall damage. When Trihorn moves, the rider moves with it. Trihorn's height adds 1 to the range of its rider's normal attacks, but not to its attack dice. The rider can be targeted by attackers. If Trihorn dies, the rider figure is placed on either tile that was previously occupied by Trihorn, and it takes 1 damage unless it has the Flying special power.

TRIHORN CHARGE 3 (Unchanged)
Trihorn rolls 3 additional attack dice when attacking any figure that was at least 3 clear sight spaces away from Trihorn at the start of his turn.

I think this would keep Hrognak (mounted) intact while allowing for other riders?

Trexy3d.com can print one for you.

I like it better than the original to be honest.

Cross posting from the sales thread: @White Knight has recreated the Howdah and uploaded the file on Thingiverse, so it can now be printed!

Thank you guys so much in the customs community for creating and sharing that 3D print. It always pained me that we couldn't get it distributed the way that I'd wanted. It was, in retrospect, not a good plan, but it got us something good so I won't beat myself up too much.
