The Damp Mine

Mind your step in the damp tunnels of today’s battle map!

The Rice Paddy

Today’s map makes a fine campsite or setting for a modular building.

The Pirate’s Cove

Where there is sea and trade, there are pirates, and where there are pirates, there’s a lair.

The Icy Battle Site

No one can change the shape of a battlefield quite like a magic user.

The Little Library

Today’s cosy library is another set piece for the modular buildings set, crammed with bookshelves and ready for construction on your city street.

The Jungle Stream Battle Map

Crawling, buzzing, squawking, rustling. Hiding any kind of beastie in its overgrowth. Today’s map is the Jungle Stream.

The Schooner Battle Map

Built with Out of the Abyss and my personal campaign in mind, The Schooner is something between a keelboat and a Chinese junk. Whatever she may be, this compact ship is ready for your campaign, Underdark or nay.
