Alt-Version, Variants Previews!

Alt-Version, Variants Previews!

Hey everyone,

Time for a massive preview of maps we've finished up before Christmas :)

If you recall, the MotM is the Kingsfleet Air Dock.  The winning idea in the alt-version poll was to create an icy dock.

And for the variants, we've picked an airdock in a storm, a regular naval dock, and also a desert dock where skiffs ...

January's SciFi MegaMap - New Atami Subway Map 6

Hey there,

Time for the final map of this set. Having travelled through the subway tunnels and into the old abandoned areas and platform, we've come back to the surface and into the old boarded-up closed subway station.

January's Sci-Fi Map Preview - Omega-Four Fighter Hangar

Hey everyone,

Meant to post this yesterday, but I was so busy with other maps I forgot!

We've gone big this time (although, we often go big...  so a moot point). Anyway, we thought a great big huge hangar would be super useful. You'll get this with two exteriors (space, or terrestrial), as well as empty and occupied with fighter...

The Next Sci-Fi MegaMap - Poll

Hey all,

We're going even deeper beneath the pyramid!

Last month saw the end of the 'Egyptian' part of the pyramid - ending at a grand tomb. But there was a hole in the floor that hinted at older structures beneath.

So, what's down there?

A Yuan-ti temple!

Hey everyone,

The other day on Twitter, Dyson Logos posted a pic of one of his favourite maps, and was surprised no one had done anything with it. It was Blackstone Bastion, a dark castle on a rocky island.

Just a quick update.  As you know we had some issues with the new V10 update to Foundry, generating error messages with our map modules.

A favour - test a Foundry Module?

Hello!

If you keep up-to-date with Foundry, you will probably have seen about the various V10 updates. And if you've updated, you may have encountered lots of orange warning messages when you start up.

This is due to changes Foundry have made in the required terms in the manifest json files.
