February Third Map Preview - Desert City Rooftop Chase

February Third Map Preview - Desert City Rooftop Chase

Hey everyone,

We may have got a little carried away with this...

Since the MotM is the Cave of Wonders, inspired by the Disney film Aladdin, we thought it would be cool if the Third Map also worked with that setting.  So, we've got a rooftop chase, ideal if your 'street rat' is being chased by guards after stealing some fruit! Y...

February's Alt-Version Preview - The Rakshasa's Opera House

Hey everyone,

Time for a preview!

The winning entry for the alt-version was to turn the Cave of Wonders into an underground opera house, run by a rakshasa, with a den of pleasure/harem behind the scenes.

It's been a really fun map to make. It's got a full opera house and stage, with lounge rooms to the side, and then behind the...

February's MotM Preview - The Cave of Wonders

Hey everyone,

This is a map set we've wanted to make for ages, so we're happy that we've finally got round to doing it.

The Cave of Wonders - the magical resting place of The Lamp. We've been inspired by the wonderful depiction of the cave and entrance in the Disney Aladdin film.

We've got a preview of the SciFi map that people on the Sci-Fi tier will be getting in January - a 30x30 jungle landing platform, sitting above the jungle canopy.

We reckon this will be a really great location for a running battle or firefight, ducking behind crates, defendin...

We're already looking ahead to January's maps and here's the preview for the MotM.

Useful either as the starting point of an adventure, or somewhere to resupply and rest between adventures.<...
