In my last battle we used 2 geysers, and I'd like share them...
geysers are treated as difficult terrain. Units can move over them, at their own risk. at the start of turn, a D6 is rolled. On a 4+ the geyser erupts, dealing 3D6 S4 hits with no armour saves allowed to any unit currently standing on it. (of course, if there aren't any units on it, there's no need to roll) just a little extra terrain piece for your battles in vulcanic areas. -------------------- Always a tomb king, even if on the dark daemon side once in a while...

What size are they? Do you use a 40mm round base, such as the terminator base? or do you just use the small round template?
3d6 S4 I feel is a little on the high side but I totally agree with the no armour saves. Cbt -------------------- Clickable links below.

We used several without a fixed size. One was no larger then a coin, where another was as large as a CD. (conveniently enough they were represented by those exact same things

Fair enough, 3d6 at S4 is better than most magic missiles that was the only reason I made comment.
I think as standard MM come in the following(ish) 3d6 S2 2d6 S3 1d6 S4 Maybe an idea to vary the power of the geyser (d3), I actually like this idea of geysers for special scenarios. Could prove a laugh Cbt -------------------- Clickable links below.

Going to see if I can convince my opponent to try them out in my next game. Sounds fun - and just as bad to both sides

Actually, that really does sound like fun.
Not seen this thread before but I may just have to give that a try myself. Kudos! -------------------- My favourite kind of animal is steak.
