About Dark Forest

Bandits among the trees

The set names tell the story. Bandit Ambush (6024-1) is the entry model with 60 pieces, Hemlock Stronghold (6046-1) is a mid-sized hideout with 220, and Dark Forest Fortress (6079-1) is the largest with 469 pieces. Together they depict outlaws holed up in a wooded stronghold rather than knights in a stone castle. Placed together, the three sets make a small forest scene with a clear progression from ambush to fortress. Because the whole range came out in a single year, it is an easy one to complete, and each set page lists every part so you can check a used copy before buying.
