Dust Skimmer - Storyteller+

Made from hard-wearing materials to move at top speed above the desolate flats of the Wasteland. Skimmers are light-weight, one-person transportation with maximum maneuverability in 3 dimensions. Those with a bit more cash to spend or reputation to uphold can take better care of their rides in the face of the abrasive winds that effectively peel paint and score metal.

World Builder Patrons have access to layered art files that contain all of the front and rear variant parts as well as l...

Server Compound - Map & Assets Release

Originally intended to be a nighttime stealth mission, this compound is designed for the party to covertly make their way through one of the entrance options, access the computer servers, steal whatever information lies within, and hopefully get out without incident... And when that fails, there are plenty of firing lines, ambush locations and creative ways for the party to blast their way out again. 

Spell and Ability FX - Air & Obscura

CLOUDS'N'WIND! The third pack of spell templates from Techlanders available to all patrons of the project. The steam jets work perfectly well as obstacles or simply as map elements (such as when the ship is hit by a torpedo) and the poison and steam cones are excellent breath weapons.
The wind walls are designed to sit neatly within or between the grid lines, depending on how much space they take up.

Maps Release! - FREE Maps & Update

This marks the beginning of monthly map packs from Techlanders. Maps are to be produced in addition to the regular Techlanders Token releases, access though the new Tiers - Map Master, The Lot, and Total Techlander.

I find that the "Outlined" versions of the Techlanders Tokens are the best to use on these maps, as they pop-out against the richness of the background.

As you can see in the "Chop Shop" example poster, all Map Packs contain several versions of each map: Full color gri...

Mission 1 - Asset Release

Separated map assets from the Gun Run, Chop Shop, and Drug Habitat maps.

Full rooms are included for quick-build maps or random generation. More asset pack will be released with their original map packs, or as separate posts for asset-only releases that follow a theme.

Chop Shop - Map Release

Walk in for a talk with the boss or bust through the door, guns blazing. The Chop Shop is riddled with extreme hazards from volatile chemicals in utterly inappropriate containers, to easily activatable/hackable machinery. As workers perform their various tasks, a large window allows the resident boss to oversee activities while somewhat protected in his office.

................................
A large “Chop Shop” facility is being run by a family of ex-tower marketers. They steal...

Drug Habitat - Map Release

Dangerous people in hazardous surroundings. Armed and dangerous thugs watch over the local addicts that cycle through looking for another hit. The majority of the floor ahs been adapted for protection against any Raid that the Dreddful law enforcement may seek to conduct, assuming they're brave or naïve enough to try.
Other, far more nefarious activities may also be occurring, but a lack of internal electronic security makes it impossible to know without eyes inside. The party will simpl...

Gun Run - Map Release

A place to either make a deal that might go sour, or to break up a deal-to-be. This may be the bottle neck required to hold back the zombie outbreak, or an ambush site for those that seek the Lord of Rats.

This was the first sci-fi map I've made and used, so there are some style choices that have and will be changed over time.

Communications have been intercepted from low level street gangers that have organized a trade of illicit firea...

Service Drones - FREE Tokens

The repurposed bodies of criminals and soldiers, able to serve or serve again. Simple-minded cyborgs loaded out with expendable equipment and armor plating, they are nonetheless brutally effective at taking enemy machines and soldiers apart when activated.

A variety of combat drones are available for download to tiered patrons and World Builder patrons also have access to the separated bionic implants, heads and bodies that they can use to make custom configurations, use as items and ma...

The separated parts are included with implants, heads and bodies for custom configurations and will also work with other modular releases. You can mix and match.

Poll Result for July Theme: Combat Drones

This is the second half of the "Service Drones" pack that was started earlier. In fact, in a strange coincidence, the original release was last July. So 1 year later and this pack will be completed and published.

The release will include style variants of 5 different designs and also separated heads, bodies, and weapon implants to allow patrons to build custom designs or mix'n'match with other modular releases, though no PSD or XCF files will be released. This is due to the variety of p...

Spell and Ability FX - Thunder & Lightning

LIGHTNIN' & THUNDAH! The second pack of spell templates from Techlanders available to all patrons of the project. I use these in my home game, even though I use a grid and a cube is easy enough to see, there is a level of impact that these give classic spells like Thunderwave, so I hope you'll give it a try.

Fifth Goal! 100 Patrons!

It happened! The very last day of the month before the roll-over, 100 patrons have donated to this project this month. Thank you all so profoundly.

Above is the sketch for the Endbringer Devil token that will be available to all patrons of any amount, when complete. Of course I will aim to complete it this month but there was already a significant line-up for July and it's a truly massive token and is effectively a map in it's own right. 

As always, I hope this project contin...

July is going to be HUGE.

Hobgoblin - FREE Tokens

A warrior race of slight but cunning leaders and soldiers. Though single combat does not prove to be their strong-point, they are able to muster war forces in numbers great enough to darken skies, and their keen sense of warfare makes them a danger to any world marked for their conquest.

Tiered patrons have access to all color and equipment load-out variants and World Builder patrons have access to modular files containing the separated body parts for armour selection or even swapping p...

Hobgoblin - Storyteller+

Hobgoblins are a martial species, taller and more muscular than their Goblin offshoot, they are intelligent and purposeful. Though alone, they are relatively slight compared to the warriors of other species, in the numbers normally expected in a full-blown hobgoblin assault, they are formidable both in ground combat and siege craft. Their deep sense of the command chain means that it's extremely hard to rout an army through precision targets as they will fall into the next logical leading for...

Hobgoblin - Full Release

Hobgoblins are a martial species that lay conquest to the stars. They are intelligent, ruthless, technically advanced, and maintain a  focused chain of command across their entire culture making them extremely adaptable when working together in any numbers, no matter their origin.

I think hobgoblins are particularly cool and tried to go all-out with this release, adding as many elements as possible for mix'n'match variants in the hopes their armies find a place in your game, too. I...

Next Month: July

Base Pack - A large number of civilian tokens deigned to help fill in busy work areas. These will be of lower quality than the usual token releases but much greater quantity.

Service Drones: The other half of the Service drones that are outfitted with more blades and guns than the first batch, perfect for bodyguard and defense situation. (I can manage about 5 semi-modular combat drones and 3 se...

A fast-tracked token commissioned by  one of my wonderful patrons and release to everyone with some character-specific element changes.

Elvari Skirmisher - Full Release

The Skirmisher token was commissioned by a patron. With a few tweaked details, it's also been released as normal to everyone (as agreed beforehand). Specialized for tight, close-quarters combat, the Skirmisher is able to get into heavily defended locations and fight their way out if needed. What they lack in firepower, they make up for in speed and versatility, paving the way for a greater assault.

Modular files are included for use with Photoshop and GIMP (free image editing software) ...

Update - Techlanders on Roll20! & Upcoming

Recently, I've been working on a few projects that are eating up my time but my commitment to TL is still in full swing, as you can probably see. I really need to hit the social media circuit more often and show off but it's a big job to do alone. If any of you amazing patrons regularly surf the boards on Reddit or Facebook, pretty much anywhere you're able to throw up an image showing how cool and useful this stuff is, it goes a long way to getting more traffic, and the more patronage I can ...
