Jungle Lava Flow [17x22]

Hi everyone :)

We pictured this map as being a small section of a jungle located further down a volcano, which happens to have recently erupted! It's a theme that we haven't tackled much over the years but we thought it could also be cool to begin working on a Volcano themed vista with several maps that could be found in the surrounding areas.

We have a few jungle themed maps too, but are there any maps set within a jungle that you'd like to see us tackle? Let us know in the Map S...

King's Crown [66x45]

Hey everyone!

We haven't created a map like this since Giant's Kitchen but had requests for more miniaturised maps like this and thought it'd be fun. This map is designed to accompany our Royal Palace series which will soon be getting a final map depicting the royal stables and a 2025-11-06 20:54:53 +0000 UTC View Post

Viking Longhouse [33x46]

Hi everyone :)

We haven't really ventured too much into Viking themed maps so when a Viking Longhouse was suggested in the discord we thought we should tackle one!

These buildings are intended for community use, with a huge, singular room intended to receive many guests at once. Just imagine how much mead and meat might be consumed during a true Viking celebration here. You could also expect the Longhouse to be a residence for a lord or monarch.

We hope you enjoy the map and...

Chained Dragon - Animated Battlemap

Hello everyone :)

This month we've created quite a fun animated map in our opinion! We thought what could be cooler than to play out a scene on top of a fully moving animated dragon?!

We really hope you do enjoy it!

Verdant Oasis [17x22]

Hi everyone :)

Before we get into this map post, we just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who's supported our Bastions and Guildhalls Kickstarter so far, you've already helped to get us to our twelfth stretch goal within the first 4 days which is absolutely incredible! We still have 25 days to go and we would love to keep the momentum going.

Henge Cave Entrance [22x17]

Hi everyone :)

This simple little clearing might look ordinary enough, but what do you think might lay within the cave covered by this huge, intricately carved stone? Will your players be the ones to venture down into the depths?

We often get requests for more simple forest paths and clearings so we hope you all enjoy our natural variations of this scene. How do you think you might use it in your own games?

Hi everyone! :)

Fortress Prison [38x46]

Hi everyone :)

This week we'd like to introduce you to this well fortified, coastal prison. With this map, we've included a full prison interior to hopefully fit a full prison infiltration or escape scenario for your games.

As I'm sure you can probably recognise with some of the motifs and style choices, this is an additional map to link in with our other Port City maps!

Lakeside Respite

Hey everyone :)

When we planned this map we wanted to create a multifunctional camp that could easily slot into any campaign. We figured this could be a small camp set up out of the way for a band of traders or alternatively just a nice spot for your party to rest for a few days. We certainly think it looks like a peaceful spot to spend a little time either way.

With our variations, we've made as many options as we can for this little camp to be used in different biomes with and w...

Castle Construction [37x48]

Hi everyone :)

This is a map theme that has been long requested, so we're very pleased to release this for you all. We really wanted to give the impression with this one that this spot had been set up entirely to construct a castle. We included temporary bridges, a crane for hauling up materials straight from the river and a riverbank full of clay to use whenever more is needed!

We really hope you enjoy this map and we can't wait to hear own you're going to use it. Please feel fre...

Roadside Ambush - Animated Battlemap

Hello everyone :)

This month we've animated our Roadside Ambush Battlemap. Will your party be journeying through this rugged landscape? Or perched up on the high points ready to spring an ambush? They might just get chance to seize some passing precious cargo or perhaps they're here to protect it.

Enjoy!

Young Adventurer's Hideout [17x22]

Siren's Shipwreck Shore [26x35]

Hi everyone :)

This week we bring you to an unfortunate place for seafarers. If you hear an irresistible song drawing your attention whilst you're out in the open ocean. We highly suggest that you distract yourself as quickly as possible. You'll lose all sense of reason and we can only assume that there's a good chance you could join the hundreds of entranced souls who have already perished upon these rocks. Keep your wits about you!

Secluded Tea Valley [17x22]

Hi everyone!

This cosy little hut in the middle of these tea fields might just be the kind of spot you'd welcome after weeks out on the road. If you're kind enough to the owner they may just welcome you in for a fresh pot of tea.

What kind of character do you think might live here in solitude? Could it just be a simple farmer, looking for peace and quiet? Perhaps somebody in hiding from a dangerous, powerful crime lord? Maybe your players will come across the 'Abandoned' variation...

Vista Adventure Writing Contest

Hey everyone!

Hopefully by now you've all seen the Starter Village Vista we created! It's our goal to make many more. We've got several already in the works covering our Yggdrasil theme, a rocky desert, pirates, and more.

But we figured we'd call on the community to help us create more. So we're launching our Vista Adventure Writing Contest!

Island Toll Castle [33x46]

Hi Everyone :)

We saw this map as a passing point for those adventurers with enough gold in their purse to take a shortcut. Perhaps it could also be used as a safe haven of sorts. A small, well stocked castle with enough guards to hold back the most dangerous of monsters and enough food to keep the entire staff fed well through the winter.

If your players have a tedious journey which will take weeks of trekking ahead. Maybe this could be a planned stop off point along the way to r...

Treant Falls [17x22]

Hi everyone!

It's nice sometimes for us to spend some time creating these smaller, natural themed maps. This autumnal forest contains the remains of this treant, who did everything they could to preserve the life of the tiny little seedling within their hands.

We hope that this map inspires your party to carry on the quest of this fallen treant. They could even bring this seedling along with them. Who knows what might sprout from this preserved plant?

Enjoy :)

Mycelial Gate - Animated Battlemap

Hello everyone :)

We were very happy to return to this map. This fungal portal connects the fae world and the material plane. Full of fungi fruit and air dense with spores. Hopefully you'll get to make use of the hiding spots and long, winding pathways for some weird psigarics to ambush the party!

Enjoy!

Riverside Mill [33x46]

Hi everyone!

For this map we wanted to create a quaint little mill, tucked into the curve of the river running away from the weathered wooden dam set further up above them. The thick beams of the dam have been darkened by both water and time. Let's just hope that they're still strong enough to hold back the millions of gallons, pressing up against the opposite side of the dam.

When we created this map, we loved the fact that it was both a simple map, with a huge amount of built in...

Hi everyone :)

Welcome to the Heart of the Village. This quaint village hub includes a butchers, florists, guard post, tailors, florists and a book shop/library with an attached residence for the owner. We've had several of these buildings requested in the past so we thought it could be even better if we combined them all into one battlemap.

We imagined that this would be the heart of our little village and a popular starting point to pick up quests, or perhaps just some nice flow...

This place is world famous, so much so that they've had to employ a ticketing system for all customers. You'll need to get here early in the morning if you want to guarantee same-day air mail!

Rumour also has it, the 'Postmaster General' along with a ...

Healing Cave Spring [17x22]

Hi everyone,

Welcome to this mystifying natural cave formation. We feel like this naturally has an other-worldly feel around it, but every aspect of this map is based around a real-life formation or location.

Melting Glacier [21x27]

Hi everyone :)

It's been a while since we created an arctic or winter themed map and we've never really tackled a glacial theme before. With the map itself we wanted to purely focus on the environment. The ice is melting away, slowly causing the water levels to rise year on year.

Hopefully those of you running campaigns in snowy/icy settings will find this one very useful. We included a few variations so you it can be used in entirely snowy locations or even woodlands too.

Dragon's Memorial [17x22]

Hi everyone :)

In this peaceful clearing, an artist has taken the time to carve and paint a memorial to one of this region's great dragons. We picture this as a secluded spot they'd sit cross-legged on a mossy patch of earth whilst mixing paints in a meditative fashion. Perhaps a soft breeze stirs in the leaves whilst they paint this tribute to a legendary creature. Hopefully your players will enjoy discovering this mysterious carving and it can lead on to great quests!

We consistently get requests for more Ancient Greek themed maps so we've been brainstorming in the background to come up with some ideas for them!

We'll have quite a few more Greek themed battlemaps for you to explore in th...
