Fortress of Sacrifice Dice Tower
This eye-catching Warhammer dice tower print is beloved for its design and functionality. If you take away the plate, it can also double as a terrain piece. Printing the tower takes a fair amount of time, with users reporting it can last anywhere between 40 to 80 hours to print. However, the end results should be worth it!
The dice tower has several remixes, and it’s worth browsing through the photos and comments for helpful tips about assembly and materials. For instance, note that you will have to glue the pieces together, and it seems to print best with 10% infill with PLA.
