COUNCIL MEETING - JULY
Added 2019-07-03 12:12:09 +0000 UTCSo for the next month there are again a bunch of options to pursue, and I waited before I could post the design of my Camp Vengeance to talk about some of the options I would love to pursue myself. Including: Building the base for a town / village with buildings you can open up and building you can just use for style. (Think fighting in the streets / fighting on roof tops etc.).
The Other Options could also include building a Keep - Homebase (looking a bit into modular Keep building (which can be done but will be heavy on experimenting to figure it out).
Another option is going to other locals with the tiles, stuff we can eventually start connecting to what we've made so far with the outdoor content but that will exist on its own (there was a request for this in discord (Feywilds - Jungle - Planar)
Or returning to some underground maps. For these underground maps I'm thinking of using the setup for the Fragmented Dungeon but doing larger scale prepared areas that allow you to cut areas in two and retrofit them with tiles already made. Stuff like that.
(Art not mine but an example to showcase the palisades in small village action)

Hey James! This is exactly what my long term goal is with creating these tile based designs. You see I've been working on finding people to help me create apps (something I've been at for quite some time with mixed success (although I believe now I'm really on the right track of getting things done)) to create a website platform where you can select paramaters like; forest - road - river - etc. and randomly generate maps that fit those descriptions. It will then use the tiles I'm making and randomly generate a map on the fly. The goal is to be able to do the same for dungeons and even for things like a village (palisade wall - stone wall - small - large etc).

2019-07-03 13:52:45 +0000 UTCI appreciate the modular tiles, dungeons, and arena-style locales. One thing I could really use is a variety of large-format outdoor regions. Much of the real fun in my campaigns, whether published or homebrew, happens out in the wilderness, in the mountains or woods of the Sword Coast. I'm thinking that some large maps, still at a 5' grid, of fairly conventional natural landscapes, would be usable for any number of those in-between campaign episodes, homebrews, or the like. Hell, you could even use real source material from aerials of national forest or mountains. Been working on a map like that myself for an epic wilderness survival homebrew campaign (but, like, with a goblin army under the hills). Anyway, keep on keeping on, and nice work.
