It's also business as usual though, and we're cracking on with a preview of August's MotM.

Hey everyone,
Totally forgot that we hadn't shared the previews of July's megadungeons yet, and you'll be getting them tomorrow!
So, we wanted to show them off before you get them. These are the first maps of the 2 new sets.

Hey everyone,
We've had time to get a new map set onto DTRPG (we've been so busy lately with Patreon maps, Candlekeep & House of Lament, plus some other projects) - but it's nice to get something new onto the site.
Inspired by a recent game of D&D on Astral VTT, where my players were visiting a tropical coast, I thought I'd m...

Hey everyone,
So, as you probably saw on a previous post, we had a slight hiccup regarding the alt-version.
The winning suggestion was to turn the marsh goblin village into a tower containing a golem under construction. When we had originally read the suggestion we thought it sounded great and put it in the poll. However, once we sta...

The Alt Version Map
We're previewing the Third Map today rather than the Alt-Map as scheduled. We're sorry to say that we've had a few abortive goes at making the Golem construction tower (which won the alt poll) and nothing is looking right. So we made the Third map first (see below) and have decided to switch the Alt-Map...

Hey everyone,
Thanks to everyone that suggested something for the Sci-Fi ideas thread. There were so many good ideas, and definitely has given us lots to consider for future months.
For July, we ended up picking and combining 2 suggestions. One was to have an external space location that would suit EVA missions, and another was a spa...

Tree-top Goblin Village - huts on platforms, high in the canopy, around a huge central trunk

We've been hard at work recently working on the only battlemap that's needed for the new Van Richten's Guide - The House of Lament.

For this month's Sci-Fi map, we wanted to pick an idea from your suggestions.
What do you think would be a cool map for us to make for the July Sci-Fi map?
Remember, it should be single-storey, and fit on a map between 20x20 and 30x30

Hey everyone,
We're nicely into the Kingdom Project, and so the Third Map you'll be getting in July will be another location from the Old Kingdom.
Have a look at the map below - the question mark on the island is the location of the next Third Map - but what is it?

We wanted to share the previews of the last maps for the the current Megadungeon and Megamap.
The Dark Road has wound along through the Underdark, and now reaches the ruined drow city - only to find the ruins have been taken over by a Mind Flayer lair!

Afraid this post is a few days late - too busy working on maps!
It's the preview of the Third Map, one of the locations that will appear on The Old Kingdom regional map.

Hey everyone,
Time for a preview of June's Alt-Version. If you recall, the MotM is the Forest Necropolis, a 30x30 ruined location, overgrown and forgotten. The winning entry in the alt-poll was to transport it to an urban location, and have it also forgotten, but in the middle of a city.
Lovely idea!
So, we've taken the s...

We've started work on the only map that comes with the new Guide to Ravenloft book - the House of Lament.

Unfortunately, Roll20 frequently shift the position of elem...

Hey everyone,
For June's Sci-Fi map we've come back to the popular New Atami cyberpunk setting, and have produced what we think is a pretty unique map.
This 50x50 giant map is set up for a Street Race event, with a tricky track winding through the night-time streets. We've also included a non-race version, ideal if you just want a la...
