Hey everyone,

One of our patrons and followers on Twitter (a great user of our maps on AstralVTT) asked whether we had a suitable map for a Swamp Hag. We had some suggestions, but nothing perfect, and so we thought it would...

December's Third Map Preview - Siobury Farm

Hey everyone,

Siobury Windmill was very well received last month, and many of you asked about us adding to the Siobury set and extending the map.  We thought that would be a fun thing to do for the Third Map, and so we've created Siobury Farm, a 30x30 map that joins seamlessly to the east side of the Siobury Windmill map.   ...

December's Alt-Version Preview - Undergate Market

Hey everyone,

Time for a peek at December's Alt-Version. The MotM for December is The Quarry, and the winning suggestion for the alt was to turn it into a market, winding down into the pit.

It's a great idea, and we took it a little further. We pictured the location as an ancient entrance to the Underdark, and centuries ago rival soc...

December's Sci-Fi Map - Eyno Bleside Housing

Hey everyone,

We decided it was time to complete the 'square' of Eyno Bleside, and make the 4th map in the set. Sitting above the Cantina and to the right of the Military Compound, this map features a housing district, with plenty of homes, including interiors, for lots of story potential.

This 30x30 map will be in the Sci-Fi tier re...

The White Crow Inn - 50% Discount!

Hey everyone,

A few months back one of our Patrons, Maxime Lacoste, got in touch and shared a line-drawing of a tavern he had designed. We thought it was a really great layout and so, with his blessing, we've made it into a multi-level battlemap.

December's Map of the Month Preview - The Quarry

Hey everyone,

We're really pleased to be previewing December's MotM - The Quarry! We noticed that these sorts of locations were frequently missing from RPG Battlemap catalogues, despite being really interesting locations for adventures. We love the different levels in this place.

November's Alt-Version & Megamap Previews

Hey everyone!

Somehow, being so busy with Halloween maps etc, we managed to forget to preview the Alt-version for November, and the two Megadungeon levels!

So, we wanted to quickly remedy that!

Hey everyone!

For this month's Third Map, we thought it would be useful and fun to make one that joins to an existing map, expanding the play area and story potential. We had a little brain storm, and then came up with the idea to make a windmill map that connects to 2020-10-25 16:00:04 +0000 UTC View Post

November's Variant Previews

November's Variant Previews

Hey everyone,

Time for a preview of the three variants of the MotM you'll be getting in November. If you recall, the MotM is the Crypt of the Vampire Queen, a sprawling network of tunnels and tombs. For the three variants we've changed the theme of these tombs, and made one elven, one Egyptian and one ancient Greek. 

These three...

We thought we'd go for a different type of spaceship this month - one that will be great fun to either raid or escape from - a Prison Ship!

This huge map is 50x30, and we've given both interior and exterior views, just in case your escape plan involves walking over the exohull!

This map will be in t...

Hey everyone,

Thanks for the suggestions as to how to reimagine the Crypt of the Vampire Queen as an alt-version.

Hey everyone,

I managed to work on the alt-version over the last few days (taking a bit longer due to a blurry eye!). 

The winning entry for the conversion of Crystalcave Vaults was an outlaw hideout, hidden behind a waterfall. We thought it would be fun to do the surface map too, so you'll be getting 2 30x30 maps for the alt; a...

Thanks to everyone that's wished me well after my eye was scratched (by our 4yr old during a game!). I'm not in any pain, but the vision is still a little blurry in that eye, so it's been difficult working at a laptop too long, so it's been slower making maps. It's a lot better than it had...
