November's Sci-Fi Preview - The Wreck of the HLS Turnstone

Hey everyone,

For November's SciFi map, we present the Wreck of the HLS Turnstone, a 30x40 map depicting a haunted space hulk map, drifting through the void of space.

You'll get interior and exterior views (two different interior styles), plus a non-haunted standard spacehulk version, if you don't want creepy lighting etc.

November's Alt-Version Preview - St Gerrin Museum

Hi everyone,

We had a nice weeklong trip away for my 40th birthday, so the posts for this month are a little shuffled from their regular dates, but here's the preview of the Alt-version. The winning suggestion was to create a museum - something that has been asked about for ages! 

It's a large place, with a ground floor, first f...

Hey everyone,

We just wanted to let you know that we're taking a week off - it's Joe's 40th birthday on Wednesday, so some previews for maps will be coming a little later.

But, that said, they're pretty exciting maps! The winning alt-version, by just 1 vote, was St Gerrin Museum, and we've already made a start on it....

Hey everyone,

For October's Sci-Fi map, we decided to revisit Eyno Bleside and add a huge 60x60 map that adjoins to the market and cantina maps. And what better location than a docking bay, from which you may need to make a speedy escape!

Hi everyone.

It feels like it's been ages since we've shared a preview with you all, and that's because this month, with the conclusion of the Kingdom project, we've done a multi-level giant map, which has taken the 'slots' for the MotM, the alt and the Third map.

Baroncliffe Castle is a huge ruin with extensive dungeons underneath. ...

September's Alt-Version preview - Sewer Shanty Town

Hey everyone

The winning idea in the recent alt-version poll was to turn the mansion dungeon into a shanty town set in a sewer. It's a very useful setting - all manner of different reasons it might exist, who might live there, and why the party might need to visit.   We'll also be giving a non-shanty version of the sewer, in case...

Hey everyone,

We were on holiday last week (down in South Wales, in the Gower), and forgot to preview a few maps that you'll be getting on the 5th. We realised we hadn't previewed the Third Map, nor the two Mega maps (fantasy and sci-fi).
