Champion Tier - Party Camp 2 - 20x20

Hey everyone and happy Release Monday! 

We are starting off September with a campsite road map as part of the generic location segment of my maps. The core locations are great and all, but how many times have you found yourself needing a map for a campsite, road, or woods encounter? My goal is to provide enough of these maps to allow you to fully flush out maps no matter where you party m...

Sneak Peek - Party Camp 2

Hey everyone! Been hard at work on Castle Ravenloft exterior (and it has been quite the challenge!) , but until that is finished, I wanted to release a new party camp / road / forest map. Generic maps are hugely versatile and as a DM myself, I've always enjoyed having a ton of variety when it comes to using different maps for party encampments. If your party is like mine, they hardly ever stay in a ...

Champion Tier - The Road to the Castle - [80x60]

Hey everyone! I'm excited to bring you my newest map; "The Road to the Castle". This is a pretty large map coming in at 80x60 and should give you plenty of ground to cover any encounters you might have planned as your players march (or take the black carriage) up to the castle. 

I was inspired by the classic 1992 Bram Stoker's Dracula movie where the scene when J...

Public Version - Corrupted Druid Tree - [60x60]

Hi everyone and happy Release Monday!

The original Druid Tree map was amongst some of the first maps I did for CoS and I feel my skills have improved since then. I wanted to create a new map as I covered the Gulthias Tree in the Interactive Tome of Strahd Chapter 8 post and wanted to leverage this new style of tree. I kept the IToS version and this version pretty similar so your players can vie...

Sneak Peek - Gulthias Tree V 2.0 (Wait a few secs for the .gif to change)

Hey everyone and happy Sneak Peek Thursday! 

Today I wanted to take a slight detour and knock out another V 2.0 of an older map that I did when I first started map making. Of the four Yester Hill maps I've created, I wanted to re-do the Gulthias tree and bring it more in-line with the quality of the other three maps. 

I used my map from the Interactive Tome of Strahd chapter 7 ...

This is my biggest sized map I've ever released at 100 x 60 grid and gives you a massive area to host a number of encounters on the Old Misty road.

Hi Everyone!

*DM Andy’s wife posting an update on his behalf*

Unfortunately it looks like DM Andy failed his constitution saving throw and is now under the weather. The sneek peek will be a bit delayed and he hopes to have it up by Saturday. As for any comments or messages he will personally reply when he is back up and running.

Cheers,

Candy 🍭

P.S. He just needed some bed rest and will be okay soon! ☺️
