Bit O' Troika progress

I've been speaking about this for an age. It was meant to be finished in September, but I got stuck doing more fulfilment than I had hoped for. The parts of the map that are crossed out in pencil are finished, which means every building and its primary occupants are described in some way or other. I'll share some of the better ones once I type them up, which will be soon.

INTERESTING FACT: I always draw my own maps for books, and the maps come first. Slate & Chalcedony was a doodle story for my own entertainment. Same with this, I just wanted to draw buildings and name streets. 

There will be more monsters soon as well. All my energies are being spent on promotion and marketing this month, 'cos it's Kickstarter season. The day might come where we have enough of an audience to just write and release books, but until then it's a necessary evil which takes up half the year in one way or another.

This is a city-crawl. It's pretty mega but it's not a dungeon. The mega-dungeon map hasn't been posted yet, which I'll be fixing at some point soon

So is this troika city? Or megadungeon? Or is the other larger map post the megadungeon?

Excited for this! I feel it’s always easier starting with a map and letting it tell its story too. Good things afoot!

Now you mention it, I think I was reading Blacksand at the time I started drawing this. The building details are dead ringers!

Looks great - the style of buildings looks very much like those from Blacksand! (My favourite city setting and perhaps my favourite RP sourcebook still, after all these years)
