As the name suggests, this tower is used to track the characters’ initiative in role playing games (they could also have some other creative uses…).

The tower support some labels that can be moved around and ordered, depending on a character’s initiative order.

The Siege Tower has a Fantasy/Medieval flavor, for immersive gaming, it’s appropriate for fantasy and horror settings, some characteristics:

Its modularity permits to make it taller by adding sections, so you will be able to track as many initiatives as needed, and the dice will take as long as you desire to reach the bottom (assuming you have enough vertical space to accomodate the tower). The base holds 3 labels, the middle (repeatable) section holds 4.
A removable top floor permits to hold dice or put miniatures there.
Can also be used as a prop for standard 28/32mm wargaming, TTRPGs and dioramas
Final height is from 1 foot (30cm) onwards!

The standard arc labels cover a wide angle, in this way the tower can be placed on a corner or on one short side of the table and the players will be able to read the initiative from both long sides. The simple labels are smaller, lighter, more portable and can be read along a limited-width frontal arc.

Our “Proton Connectors – Magnetic” are simple connectors that doesn’t require supports when printed vertically. They accommodate common 8x2mm disk magnets …not included 😉

the magnets needed are twice the number of labels used, the base section accomodates 3 labels, intermediate sections will accomodate 4 each (8x2mm neodimium disk magnets). So you will need 14 magnets + 8 for each additiona section.

NOTE ON MAGNET’S STRENGTH: N45 upwards are ok, N52 are great, N35 work. Reducing the space between a tower’s magnet and its corresponding label’s magnet (for example, by filing) will increase the attraction strength.

NOTE ON MAGNETS POLARITY: magnets must be magnetized axially (each flat face is a different pole). That’s also the most common type of magnetisation found in this type of magnets. Double check the polarity before inserting the magnets, it will make the process quicker (they could be removed and reversed afterwards, thanks to slots in the Proton Connectors, however it’s quicker to insert them correctly the first time).

You can watch a video about the magnets connectors here: Degenerate Polygons Initiative Tower – Wizard’s Tower – Magnetic variant

Various types of labels paints and treatments can be used, check this other video: Degenerate Polygons – Inititative Towers’ label options

We tested various ways for writing the characters names on the labels and they all work well:

standard acrylic colors or permanent markers
blackboard paint + standard chalk (easily erasable, retro/lo-tech look)
blackboard paint + liquid chalk pens (water erasable)
whiteboard paint/film + erasable markers (as the whiteboard!)
