Hi all
When I GM’ed a D&D 4e campaign some two years ago, I made this custom monster, the Siege Troll. It was one of the best boss battles I ever made.
That was D&D. Now I’ve converted it for Dungeon World, for the joy of the entire community. If you like sieges in your campaigns, then I can highly recommend spicing it up with an over-sized troll, flung over the defenses by catapult!
You like that idea? Well, then click the link below and tremble in fear at the mighty Siege Troll!

“Throw a chunk of debris”/”pick them up and throw them” should be merged into “throw something or someone,” but other than that, I like it a lot!
Ahh, of cause. Will make that correction. Thanks for the suggestion 🙂
*slow clap*
That is a thing of beauty.Â
This reminds me of a game I played in, the same DM had many games for different people over the years, Greyhawk setting, near the humanoid mountain ranges, if I am not mistaken, whenever they attacked the city some of the players had made the same guy would be the first to get a boulder on his house.
It happened so often in the many games that this guy’s hammer was magical, putting nails in place in a single hit that never missed.
This is a fantastic monster. “Eat townsfolk alive” is one of my favorite monster moves.
Travis Stout Mine too 🙂 It makes the troll something to be stopped, sooner rather than later.
Thanks for sharing. I haven’t tried DW yet, but monsters like this certainly are tempting.
