Battle Map Geomorphs

Thu 06 Jan 2022, 18:10

Hi there. Does anyone know if Free League plan to create and sell any more battle map geomorphs? I'm meaning the standard size maps that were included with the game and are free on the website: https://freeleaguepublishing.com/wp-con ... e-Maps.pdf.

I ask because I would happily pay a little money for additional maps that fitted in with these existing ones, allowing me to create multiple different large scale battle maps for my players.

Thanks for any info.

They have hinted that the upcoming expansion boxes might have, probably will have, battlemaps.

Superb news!

Some separate ones now would be great as well if they fancy selling them as a stand-alone item!

Here's a bunch. I don't make new ones regularly, but I'll add to these if and when I have a need for something for my own game.

These maps are fantastic. Thanks for sharing.

By any chance do you have versions without the hex grid on them please? I ask because I'm using the alternative rules where you can convert everything into meters and I set up my own 2m grids in Roll20.

And have you thought about turning this into a game resource that you can sell on DriveThruRPG? I would pay a little for these and additional geomorphs, particularly if there were gridless versions.

As they use the base battlemaps by Free League I don't think it's OK to sell these on DTRPG. As the base battle maps are free on the FL website, distributing these as free derivative works seemed to be the safe bet. I do have the work files, but don't have the different maps without the hex grids.

I do however have a bunch of travel maps on DTRPG, the latest being the Ireland map https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/38 ... Travel-Map
Hopefully the last map of the British isles series will be finished soon as well.

Thanks for explaining and that makes sense.

If you don't mind me asking, how did you create the geomorphs?

By "geomorphs" you mean the battlemaps? Just a lot of masking out elements and painting over the existing stuff to create blank backgrounds.

Thanks for explaining.

I tried doing that but my efforts were very poor in comparison to yours. I clearly need to practice more! :)
