Hi team!
Today I have for you our fourth and final release of Feb and our current theme of: Large Battlefields!
Twin Peaks is based on another suggestion for our Discord server and will hopefully be a great addition to your map arsenal!
Two opposed camps fighting over the all important highground!

Hi team!
Today I have for you our second release of Feb and our current theme of: Large Battlefields!
Rather than history, this time fantasy was my inspiration for this map, the fantasy of a certain Mr Tolkien.
The Battles of the Fords of Isen, where the forces of Saruman attacked those of Rohan, saw the death of Theodred and kicked off the War of the Ring! May your battles ...

Hi team!
Today I have for you our first release of Feb and our current theme of: Large Battles!
Taking an example from history this enormous battlemap is inspired by the famous Battle of Thermopylae. A natural choke point, Narrow Pass offers an epic setting for your players to hold off an advancing horde or maybe circumvent the enemies defenses to...

For those that have not yet seen the announcement from Wizards of the Coast, the news is huge!
Not only have WotC backed down from their proposed changes to the OGL but they have announced that they will licence SRD5.1 under a Creative Commons License.
THIS. IS. HUGE.

Happy release day!
Today is our fourth and final release for January and for your viewing pleasure today I have Storm Shrine. Home to an ancient blue dragon, this mountain side hideaway serves as both lair and magical conduit, having the ability to harass the power of furious storms. For what purpose? Well that is the question isn’t it…

Hi all!
Apologies for the delay in this week's release but it's been a rather hectic couple of weeks!
Today I have for you the third installment in this month’s theme ‘Dungeons and Dragons’:
The Headless Oarsman.
What is more quintessential in TTRPGs of all shapes and sizes than the tavern? A fantastic place to meet new characters, plan high jinks and (if your party is anything like mine) put on ...

Hi team!
Even with all the craziness going on at the moment with OGL 1.1 and the community backlash around it, it is also a release day!
Despite the somewhat unfortunate timing of having a Dungeons and Dragons theme in the same month WOTC seems intent on burning the whole community down, we are soldiering on, and I have for you today the Faerie Tree! 2023-01-12 18:43:24 +0000 UTC View Post
Hi all!
I'm sure by now you must have heard about the controversy currently going on in regards to WOTC's plans for the OGL. A fair number of you have been messaging me about it, querying how it might affect what we do here.
If you aren't sure what the OGL is and why the proposed changes would be disastrous for the community, DMDave has a great summary:
Happy New Year team!
I hope you are all having a great start to 2023! For my part I have jumped headlong into our theme of ‘Dungeons and Dragons’, as voted for by you wonderful patrons.
Expect maps based on the ‘classic’ aspects of the game we all love. For my first offering I give you: Dwarven Ruins, a twisting, turning collection of chambers and tunnels that make up an ancient mountain hold.

With the year winding down and many of you getting ready to spend time with friends and family, I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you so much for your support this past year.
Whether you personally celebrate Christmas or not I hope you will indulge me with some end of the year sentimentality :D.

Including all the variants, this one release includes 52 maps!
Enjoy!

Happy release day all!
Today I have for your viewing pleasure, our latest battlemap: Desert Canyon, hopefully a fine addition to our theme of Nature and The Wilderness.
Obviously, because I get carried away, I had to also throw in a Goblin Lair that runs beneath the canyon. Complete with multiple hidden entrances for the goblins to pop out of and harass helpless travelers this map...

Hi all!
I have a little bonus release for you today, Abandoned Farmhouses is a battlemap I started putting together a while ago but shelved it due to other projects. I thought however that it would fit in nicely with this month’s theme and would be a worthy addition to your DMing arsenal!
Enjoy!
Hi all!
Delayed by one day (due to me moving house) I would like to present our second release for our Nature and the Wilderness theme: Fallen Shrine
A pairing of two fantastic ideas over on our Discord Server, Fallen Shrine is not only a huge battlemap but it also hides an entire Green Dragon Lair underneath!

Hi all!
It's a brand new month and therefore a brand new theme! As voted for by your good selves, for December all our maps will be based around Nature and The Wilderness.
The first of these I have for you today; Tiered Waterfall is a large battlemap with an eye watering 18 variants for you to choose from.
A simple wooden bridge spans across a raging river that cascades down a series of rocky cliffs. The varied heights as we...

Hi all!
Continuing our theme of Eldritch Horror, I have for you today, the Hag Shack, a dilapidated cottage in the middle of a swamp, complete with an underground laboratory, coven meeting area and summoning circle.
Spread over 3 levels this dungeon will give your PCs plenty to sink their teeth into!
Hi all!
Today we continue our Eldritch Horror theme with a map straight out of a nightmare. A swamp wreathed in mist that is chock full of blood and gore of the recently dismembered. As if that wasn’t enough, a network of muddy tunnels weave beneath the horrific scene containing unknown dangers.
What godless creatures might call such a place home? What eldritch abominations may lurk in the tunne...

As many of you will know, recently I have been working on creating animated monster tokens for use on VTTs. There has been a fair bit of trial and error during this process and I want to thank everyone over on our Discord server for your fantastic feedback!

To kick off this most terrifying of themes I have for you Tharah’s Wharf, a creepy dock on the edge of a dark swamp. Once the site of a large distillery that refined the local swamp weed into a particularly potent spirit, the wharf boasts little now but a rotten tavern filled with surly patrons.

Hello to you wonderful folk!
For today’s release I have for you City Jail, a 4 level underground prison for your PCs to explore.
The first two levels may be controlled by the guards but once you descend deeper the rule of law fails. Vicious gangs control the third level but even their savagery pales in comparison to the cannibalistic inmates that stalk the lowest level.
Hi all!
I get asked about the process for creating my maps quite frequently. With that in mind, I thought a quick breakdown of the different stages I go through when drawing my maps would interest you.
As many of you will know I am currently working on our fourth and final map for October, a multi-level jail.
Below is the break down of the top level of this forthcoming release:
Happy Thursday! Today I have for you a positively enormous map, 120x120 grids worth of sewer fun!
Sewers are an absolutely staple of TTRPGs and hopefully this map will offer your party a good few sessions of entertainment :D
This is our third release for this month’s theme: City Buildings
