Hello hello - new looking Patreon - who this? In all seriousness, I just wanted to share some updates regarding Snowy's Maps and share some sneak peeks of some projects we've been working on in the background! So let's get into it!
Let's start off with the new Patreon page and setup! Yesterday I got the opportunity to have a play around with the new UI updates and am ABSOLUTELY in love!
Hey all - welcome back to another post! Today I wanted to share what we got up to in the month of June 2025....this month might've had a record number of new maps and oneshots. In total we added 20 battlemaps and 2 new oneshots for PF2e and DnD5e.
This month started off with a collab with 2025-06-30 19:00:11 +0000 UTC

Hi all! Welcome back to another release - today I have another oneshot for you. This one supports 4-6 players of level 2! This is available to all paid members. Excitedly, this now means we have 3x level 1 and 3x level 2 oneshots. :D
Let's have a deeper look into the design too shall we?

Hi everyone!
I'm Nick, one of the writers at Snowy's Maps. You might know some of my previous work: Where Mimics Come From, Root of All Evil, Dragon in Distress, and Dead Mountain.
A quick bit about me: I’ve been a Dungeon Master for over 8 years. I've even run a complete 1 to 20 D&D 5th Edition campaign (though, honestly, that frustrated me enough to make me switch over to Pathfinder 2e).
I've had two main issues with D&D 5e content:
First, many adventures o...

Hey all! Welcome back to another slot-in session, designed for 4-6 players of level 1. I wondered, what a better way to celebrate Free RPG Day with a FREE PF2e and DnD5e oneshot as bonus content for this month! So, here it is!
Introducing the Salt & Ash series!
Salt & Ash is a series of slot-in sessions with a grimdark tone. Combat is fast and brutal. Enemies strike first, hit hard, and fight dirty. They use ambushes, poisons, terrain, and anything else ...

As part of FreeRPGDay, I wanted to offer my Mage Master Patreon tier for free, to allow those that have wanted to get into TTRPGs, namely DnD5e and PF2e, a chance to play - or join in on the fun!

Hey all - welcome back to another release! Today, I have the vampire lair map set - although I also have a three-way collab for you! The first with the fabulous Red Sun Art, which I am sure some of you might remember, but I have decided to also collaborate with the wonderful team at Bardic Tools. So let's get into today's release shall we?

Hey all - this is a poll to vote on the next map pack! While things continue to be quite chaotic for me throughout June, I will unfortunately not be able to commit the time to do my normal Ideas Time setup (which I am missing).
However, as a compromise, I thought you guys should vote on the first July map pack instead (I may also run another for July 20th). Essentially, I have been working on a few smaller projects behind the scenes and have made some INTERESTING maps, that have no con...

This collab with Matthew comes in two parts. First of all, I wanted to chat a little bit about how this collab came together and about Matthew's work. He creates MANY wonderful maps for TTRPGs, m...

Hey all! Welcome back to another slot in session, which is designed for 3-6 characters of level 8. Here's a little description of this session:
Fifty years ago, two rival packs of werewolves decided to resolve a territory dispute by playing an extreme-stakes game of capture the flag. After a few years of the event drawing spectators, the packs agreed to formally commercialize the practice, thus beginning the official Werewolf Open Invitational. Over time, non-werewolf players starte...

Hey all, welcome back to another release. It is a BIT late but to be fair, I am really happy with the results. I JUST handed in my 25,000 word report and managed to get this release finalised shortly after. Now I need a big nap XD.
Anyway, TODAY is the long anticipated "Fallen Sky City" release, containing 5 new BASE battlemaps for the collection. I will be honest, I had absolutely NO idea how to approach this and my brain just could not decide what to do. It is probably one of the hard...

Okay since A LOT of you liked the last post - here's another. And this one focuses in on learning how to work with new asset packs. I've spent probably 100s, if not then over 1000 hours learning how to make maps....a lot of time! However, each time I add a new asset pack to the collection, I need to learn how it works. With Skront's packs, I can generally get it quite quickly, although with a COMPLETELY new artist's assets, I find it harder and it's like I go back to the beginning.
