Hey everyone,
It's been a busy couple of weeks for me down in the map making mines. I'm currently working on my biggest map yet: a big ol' island with a castle, a village and a ruined settlement. It's a passion project I've been planning out for a while, and one that I think would be good fun as a player base or an enemy stronghold. In total, the map will be a 140 x 120 squares, giving you a good 84,000ft of space to play with.
However, making a map that mahoosive does take a fair...

Aden shivered with his hand clutching the ladder. The man beside him muttered a prayer, his words doused by the mist of his breath. He didn't know this man. He had lost many brothers in this war, but he knew they would have been here with him. When the Marshall called round for volunteers, Aden had been the first to sign his name. He was going to lead this assault, this forlorn hope, to glory or...

Greetings Vanguard!
Welcome to the Siege of Larenne (Part 3). Below you'll find your map packs, sorted by Biome and Gridded/Griddless.
This map is designed as the final battle of the siege, as the attackers have finally breached the walls and are preparing for one last assault. Within the city, the remaining defenders have hun...

See the previous poll for the main explanation.
In short, I'll pick the top 2 shops that come up, and save the others for future releases.

See the previous poll for the main explanation.
In short, I'll pick the top 5 class-based bedrooms that come up, and save the others for future releases. I'll also include some generic bedrooms , so that they can still be used by everyone regardless of class.

Hey folks,
My next map is going to be an idea that I've been thinking about for a little while; to do a castle/player residence made out of modular rooms that you can drop in, to personalise it to your players/adventure.
A castle has a lot of rooms, so I'd like to prioritise the ones that would be most useful to you all, via the poll below. The intent is that the castle can be used either as a player base or an npc location, but i...

Aden watched the distant guns disappear in a flash, and smoke, then the night. Progress was slow, as the trenches stretched closer to the walls, day by day, inch by inch. It was excruciating! Aden and his battle mages had trained all their lives for this, but the marshal insisted that bringing more artillery into range was the prudent approach. It was the cowards approach. He thought back to the...

This map is designed as the mid stage of a siege, as the attackers are digging trenches further forward to bring their big artillery closer to the walls while the defenders have to hold back any assaults,...

Hey All,
Thanks for your feedback on the last poll! It was really helpful to know that I'm doing the right thing creating the multiple biomes packs.
Out of interest, I'm intrigued to know what kind of biomes you like most, so that I prioritise creating the most popular/useful ones. You can select multiple options, but I'll probably manage only 4 or 5 biomes in addition to the seasonal packs, so pick your favourites, not just every option ;p
If there are any biomes you think ...

A drop landed on the page. Ophelia quickly mopped it with her sleeve before it could blot her papers. She had been sketching away by the riverside for the past few hours, beneath the towering walls of Larenne. It was not her city, but she had come to love it. It was in this city that she fell in love, by this river that they had walked; But that felt like a world away now.
She fel...

Hey all!
I'm close to finishing my next map and wanted to get your opinions on how much you liked the format and number of maps in the previous release, Ravine Crossing. Did you like the Biome packs, where all map variants were available in different seasons or biomes (e.g. Desert, Fey), or were there too many maps to chose from and you'd prefer a smaller curated release? It does take a fair amount of time to export and upload all the images, but if it adds to your experience then I'm m...

Wooly hated stereotypes! But here he was, looking down into the ravine, a dwarf very much scared of heights. It was a good thing Ilenia was scouting ahead, he'd hear no end of it otherwise! He stroked his moustache and considered the scene: The bridge was precarious, and exposed, but they'd already lost time when the wagon lost it's wheel. Despite his better judgement they had to push on. Over the bridge it was.
“I count Six!”. Bol sharply turned to stare at Yeemik; He ...
