Pathfinder Battles – Pre-painted Role-playing Miniatures at Gamedungeon.se
What is Pathfinder Battles?
Pathfinder Battles is a series of pre-painted miniatures developed by WizKids for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game from Paizo. The figures are ready to use straight out of the box and are suitable for tabletop role-playing games on grid or hex maps, dioramas, and collecting. Each wave ("set") draws inspiration from the Pathfinder world of Golarion – heroes, monsters, NPCs, and iconic bosses.
The Pathfinder Brand
Pathfinder began as an evolution of the d20 rules and has grown into one of the world's largest fantasy RPGs with its own fantasy campaigns, adventures, and figure lines. Paizo provides the lore and adventures, while WizKids produces the official miniatures. Together, they offer pre-painted Pathfinder Battles as well as unpainted Deep Cuts for hobbyists who want to paint themselves.
