Alien Plants Flora for 25mm Science Fiction Miniatures Games

Encountering the unexpected is one aspect of miniature war games and role-playing games that adds to the fun. Small terrain pieces can fill the need.

Here is a selection of odd alien flora to add to the sense of the unknown in your games. These plants can be "seeded" in amongst your normal 25mm terrain to give the game table some new color.

As such they can be used as victory objective markers or perhaps as a surprise encounter.  Maybe some are even intelligent and can provide strange new interactions with your players!

Plants can be used in many game genres.  They need not be limited to science fiction games where characters are exploring a newly-discovered world. In horror and pulp games, they can be an invading alien species (as in The Day of the Triffids). And in fantasy games, these plants can be the result of dark magic encroaching into the characters' world.

Whatever the mythos, strange new flora can add to the fun.
