Sneak Peek - Amber Temple 2.0 (Exterior & 1st Floor)
Added 2023-04-06 17:01:00 +0000 UTC
Hey everyone, and happy Sneak Peek Thursdays!
I have an exciting one for you today as this time; I revisit one of my older maps I made well over a year ago. The Amber Temple V2.0 (Exterior & 1st Floor)
It is always nice to see how much you've grown over the course of time, and in the last year +, I've learned so much on my map-making journey thanks to all of your support, encouragement, and kind words. You all have inspired me to push myself to continue to grow and be able to provide the absolute best maps I can make to help enhance your games!
For today's sneak peek, I'm showing off a bit of the exterior and 1st-floor revisions of the temple from the CoS module. The 2nd floor will be released after this one due to the large amount of time the map has taken me to make (similar to Castle Ravenloft). However, I think it'll be worth the wait as the revisions are extensive. Even more so than the "lived-in" version I did for the Interactive Tome of Strahd.
In addition to the 1st-floor, I also created a full exterior version you can show your players as they approach the temple! This map will create a perfect battlefield for the final showdown with the Roc or, if you're like me, a fight with a headless undead dragon that may or may not be (but totally is) Argynvost!
I am super excited to share this with you all on Monday! See ya then.
Cheers,
DM Andy

Just completed the Tome of Strahd chapter with your Amber Temple map and my group loved it! It'll be a few weeks before they'll be back - looking forward to the update!

2023-04-07 18:31:27 +0000 UTCMan, and I had just finished the lightning settings on Roll20 on the old version... Oh well, my players aren't even at the Tsolenka pass so I got a couple of week to remake it.

2023-04-06 19:34:19 +0000 UTCReally happy to hear that!

2023-04-06 19:34:02 +0000 UTCFor sure, there is plenty of stuff to add in Tsolenka. Pyram King, Lunch Break Heroes and DragnaCarta all have tons of additional content added to the journey to the temple. I should have the exterior and floor 1 ready by this Monday followed by floor 2 the following Monday.

2023-04-06 19:33:51 +0000 UTCOh yes, that's awesome! I can't wait for your players to see it!
Andy D'Amato
2023-04-06 19:32:53 +0000 UTCWoo hoo! Yeah that'll be a big update for them for sure. I should caution you that there are going to be differences in design between the IToS version and this newer version. But you can chalk that up to 100s of years of time passing from that moment to the present-day temple.

2023-04-06 19:32:33 +0000 UTCoh god yes! the timing! cant wait!

2023-04-06 17:39:20 +0000 UTCMy party is heading up there right now as well! Maybe I'll throw in a couple of things so I can use this next week! Thank you!

2023-04-06 17:19:15 +0000 UTCYes!!!!! Party are most of the way up Mount Ghakis so this couldn't be better timed. Thank you so much

2023-04-06 17:14:15 +0000 UTCYou timing is excellent as always. Will be able to have this all set up before they venture to it ^^ (plus I have already done the IToS scene so the change will look awesome π)
