WW1 Tank Map Assets
Added 2024-09-30 13:42:24 +0000 UTCSix famous tank models from the Great War.
This month we teamed up and revisited the First World War. Up until now the WW1 Trench Map Assets was the only pack explicitly from the period, and what is the obvious addition? Tanks!
I want to thank our friend Christopher for his help in the research phase. I was really out of my depth, and he helped me hone in on the selection of tanks I'm sharing today.
What is that selection? The...
Mark IV Tank
A7V Tank
Renault FT 17 Tank
Whippet Tank
Schneider CA1 Tank
Tsar Tank
Each one is drawn to-scale according to the best information I could find. History buffs, please educate me if and where I went wrong! ;)
Not planning on running a WW1 campaign any time soon? I hope you'll still find a way to use these! Perhaps in some kind of time-slip scenario, as the nefarious invention of a BBEG, or as an ancient relic buried deep underground...
Do you have any ideas for these? Please inspire us by sharing them in the comments! These were great fun to make, but nothing's better than hearing how they'll be used. :)

Mmm glad to hear it! I'm still rolling Lancer ideas around in my brain. Hope to draw something soon...

It actually reminds of some of the lancer art of a mech leaning on a farm house with a little telegram that went along the lines of finding the farm empty, of finding jars of marmalade, leaving a little money, then moving on.

2024-10-08 07:27:51 +0000 UTCI love these! This prompted me to continue the ww1-fantasy oneshot I was doing with the boys and the gun rules from the DMG(?) [Maybe phb idk]

2024-10-06 13:55:39 +0000 UTCI might be using these for a Diasporan world in my lancer setting that had a branching technological evolution. See, there were so many colony ships sent out by a previous government body, that sometimes you'll even find gundpowder age samurai who traded raw materials for one or two mechs that noble houses claim.

2024-10-01 12:31:33 +0000 UTCI really love seeing stuff like this. Lots of people produce "forest with a dirt road and river" maps but things like this can be much harder to come by!
