Do you already have pimped-up versions of all the original HQ furniture?
A tomb?
A fireplace?
A rack (how about a rack with an actual victim on it)?

An image just comes to my mind - in the Frozen Horror quest, there is this room full of monsters encased in ice, which come to life (thaw, so to say) at some point. I'm imagining a "case" in the form of an ice block, of clear or blue-ish clear resin, that can be put over some monsters. It would have no bottom, so the GM can just lift it up to release the monsters...

As you have chairs and benches, some actual sitting minis may be nice. They could be just generic humaoid bodies to which the player can add the heads he wants.

Casualities...

Piles of Firewood and a Firepit are good.

A pool is always good as well. Probably about the same size or a little bigger than the base of the Fountain.

Fallen Adventurers. Prisoners in shackles.

The pile of equipment mentioned above is good as well.

A cart - empty or full of hay or wood or something like that.

A Display board with Crossed Swords or a Sword and Shield on it could be good.

How about a refuse pile. It could have pieces of clothing, weapons, have eaten food, dung...etc.

That is all I have at the moment.

Yep, gotta get around to those! :P They are on the list to try and squeeze in :D

@Big Bene: Yep, have the fireplace, rack on the cards, just gotta get to adding an image!! :P
Great idea with the ice overlay pieces, just thinking how big they would need to be to cover the miniatures.

@Rob: Thanks for the bed images, was going to go for something between the rustic bed and 4 poster. They will be unlocked soon (at this rate!)
Cool image of the monster lair, looks creepy!

@Steve: Will have a few of them, still waiting for the post to deliver some dead monsters to me >.> Have had to hold them back so far.

@Redav: in the dungeon, we use a wench with an apple on her head! :P
