Today sees the release of The Ship’s Graveyard map pack released in partnership with Kobold Quarterly. The pack details a huge underwater map (25 square feet when printed out full size) with walls of kelp, schools of fish and shipwrecked hulks - the perfect lair for a kraken or aboleth and their dark designs upon the world. When I used this map the players found themselves in the deep after their ship was destroyed by a kraken. At 6000px square (25 square feet when printed out at 1 square = 1 inch) there’s more than enough room for an epic battle against the horrors of the abyss (and yes, I've run it in maptool at that scale and it worked beautifully - got to love maptool's image handling these days).
Here’s a low res preview of the map in the pack:
The map pack contains:
- printable pdf map packs in A4 and letter formats with colour and printer friendly greyscale versions of the map for printing and use at the gametable at 1 inch = 1 square scale.
- High res jpgs for printing out as a poster map, or for use in the virtual tabletop of your choice.
- Png objects of a runic spiral, the heart of a whirlpool and an anchor compass for use with the map - or any other sea map you use.
- Maptool campaign files for OGL and 4e versions of the game with vision blocking, compatible with maptool build 84 or newer.
