First off, Merry Christmas to everyone! This is our last post before Christmas day, so we hope you have a restful and enjoyable time.
We'd also like to show you a preview of January's Third Map (a 30x30 this time). David Thompson's winning suggestion of a fog-surrounded village for the theme of 'Silent Night' really appeal...

Hey,
Preview time!
Cast your mind back a few weeks (or was it just days?) to the poll for the alt-version of the Map of the Month (the winter Camp Windsbite). The winning option in the poll was for a transdimensional rift to open up in the valley on certain nights, possibly because the site sits on ley lines. It's a really fun idea, and mak...

Hi everyone,
We're into our third week of our Christmas Countown, and this idea was suggested by our patron Will Martin, who asked for a snowy cemetery. We decided to really get into it, and made it part of our 2018-12-16 22:54:30 +0000 UTC View Post

As it's pretty cold right now, we thought we'd stick with a cold theme for the sci-fi map you'll get in January.

Hey everyone,
Hope you're enjoying your December rewards, and are planning how to use the maps and supplements in your games.
We're very happy to reveal the first map of 2019 - Camp Windsbite. This 20x30 map shows a small camp built in the shelter of a ruined keep, in a cold and snowy mountain pass at night. There are some camp fires lighti...

Hey everyone,
Thanks for all the suggestions for the third map around the theme of 'Silent Night' - some really imaginative and interesting ideas.
We made a list of all the ideas that met the eligibility criteria, rolled a dice, and it was Lucky Number 16. We say 'Lucky Number 16' because 16 won last time we did this type of competition :)<...

Hey everyone,
Time for a preview, and this time it's the Third Map. With this being December's rewards, we wanted a nice wintry map for this one, and we had a lovely idea. This is the Ruin of Sigvaldr's Keep. With the walls and towers of the Keep long gone, the weight of the ice and years of weathering have finally broken through the old floor of...

The other day one of our long time customers (and also Patron) got in touch to ask what we have in terms of rural villages for a campaign he's looking to run. We had a look through our catalogue, and whilst we were able to find a few things for him, it did highlight to us that we probably don't have enough little villages currently available. It's ...

We love having polls for the Alt-version, and usually it's a close-run thing, with two or three options coming close to winning. However, the poll for December's alt-version of the Desert Village was an absolute runaway, getting almost half of the votes. If you can't remember, the winner was an archaeological dig site in the desert.
We've deliber...

Time for your preview of the Sci-Fi map for December. We've decided to go into deep space, and made a 20x30 map of a starship wreck, floating abandoned in a nebula. A fragment of a larger structure that was destroyed, this piece still has some chambers and corridors that aren't open to the void of space.
This map will be part of the reward bundle...

Hi everyone,
We are always trying to fill gaps in our catalogue, looking for locations and settings that aren't covered enough by what we currently have. A traditional NW European church is something we've planned for a little while, and is certainly something that we've wanted to add to our catalogue.
Thank your for your suggestions as to how we could modify December's Map of the Month (the desert oasis village) to make an alt-version. We were really pleased to see that people are looking forward to a village map, but were also full of ideas for alternative...

December is the month for our Christmas Countdown, and so there will be lots of snowy and wintry maps. And so, as something rather different to that, your Map of the Month for December will be an oasis and desert village. The map is a 20x20, and includes a rooftop version for exciting rooftop chases and ambushes!

Yes, that is winners, plural.
A quick shout out first to everyone who entered our competition to help design one of our Christmas Countdown maps. As ever, you all came up with an amazing set of ideas.
We had a long discussion and battled the ideas against each other to narrow down what was a long list. That left us with 5...

A few weeks back we had a competition for November's Third Map, and asked for suggestions around the theme of 'Gunpowder, treason and plot', as you'll be getting your rewards on the 5th November, which is Fireworks Night here in the UK.
The winning suggestion was a parliament building which you could either try and blow up, or protect. We thought...

Hi everyone,
We're really pleased to show you all a preview of November's alt-version. The default Map of the Month is the Hermit's Cave, and following a closely run poll, the alt-version chosen was to turn it into a Dwarven/steampunk hydropower-plant, with large wheels, machinery and gantries etc. It was really exciting to work on, and we're rea...

It's a 20x30 map, and has control rooms, silos (three of which still contain missiles), and a power room that looks pretty dangerous! This map will be for everyone on th...
