Hi everyone!
Here's a preview of the 20x30 Third Map we'll be sending to all our awesome Patrons at the start of August - The Bridge at Dragon Chasm.

It's time for a look at the Map of the Month for August. We've gone all sinister, and produced the catchily named 'Skull Gorge' for, well..obvious reasons.

Hey!
Preview time! We asked you at the start of the month to come up with some settings from books you love that would make great battlemaps, and the infamous Cliffs of Insanity from The Princess Bride was the winner (It might not have won? Inconceivable!)

Let's start with the poll for the alt map. As many of you pointed out, there were five really useful options, so it was a tough choice. We're really pleased with the winner though - the night time festival. It's going to be lots of fun and should look awesome.
