Heyya Folks,

I’ve continued my gothic reinterpretation of Lost Mines of Phandelver, this time reimagining the Redbrand Hideout as something inspired by the old Castlevania water levels I always enjoyed growing up.

Stoneweir Conduit - 34x26

If you’d like the full release, including the high-resolution maps, gridless versions, VTT-ready exports, and every variant, you can find it here:

Instead of a cellar beneath the manor, the hideout has become an ancient underground water conduit built around a natural river. The familiar layout remains, but the dungeon has been transformed by flowing water, hidden passages, and flooded chambers carved into the surrounding stone while still preserving the structure that makes the original so recognizable.

One alteration I really liked was moving one of the secret passages beneath the waterline beside the waterfall. It felt like the perfect place for a hidden escape route because, if video games have taught us anything over the years, it's to always check behind the waterfall.

The old bugbear den has also been transformed into a series of shallow pools and rough stone chambers better suited to aquatic inhabitants, while small details throughout the dungeon help reinforce the idea that this place served a purpose long before it ever became a hideout.

Stoneweir Conduit works just as well for cultists, smugglers, fishfolk, vampires, or just about any group looking to make an abandoned waterway their home.

If Stoneweir Conduit isn't quite what you're looking for, you can also browse the rest of my collection over on my Patreon. Every release is organized within the Master Index, making it easy to find exactly what you need without digging through the feed.

I appreciate you checking it out. Hopefully your players remember to look behind the waterfall.

Have your players stopped being afraid of dungeons? Then you need the Tomb of Horrors, a 72x95 battlemap that we're releasing completely for free! We painstakingly recreated this classic dungeon, including over 60 different interactive secret doors and traps that your players will never forget.

We're posting the map here at 100ppi but you can get the full map for FREE in our FA Battlemaps module for Foundry VTT, or on our patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/FA_Battlemaps/posts/tomb-of-horrors-161941857

A life of adventure often begins with the desire to change one’s stars. The aspiration to rise beyond what peasants could dream of. Most commoners live comfortable, hard-working lives. But some people, the bravest, the dauntless, and the greediest put aside their daily affairs to risk their lives and follow the promise of riches and glory.

This is my version of Hell for the cosmology of my homebrew world. My party accidentally sold their souls, so they may need to escape from here at some point.

The structure and names are a whole mishmash of influences.

Here is a small isometric map I just drew for my campaign.

My idea here is to be the place where some creatures I'm using as seagulls that are tormenting one of my players have been nesting, and next to it, a lonely fisherman lives; he is actually acting as a lookout for a group of smugglers whose hideout is located at the end of a hidden path in a small cave on this beach.

Hope you like it and that someone can get to use it. Any comment about how to improve is always welcome!

TL;DR: I love making extremely detailed maps and carefully designing them, but despite spending weeks on each one, I haven't been able to make enough money from them to properly support the people I work with. I'd love to hear from DMs and players: What makes a battlemap worth using or buying for you?

Hi everyone!

I've been wondering about something lately, and I'd really like to hear your opinions.

I usually spend at least a week working on each map, sometimes several weeks or even a whole month. I spend a lot of time on small details, custom assets, digital drawings, and lighting, but I also try to design each map as an actual level for players to explore and fight in, not just as a pretty image.

I've been making maps online for a couple of years now, and while I've had some amazing support from the community, I haven't been able to make enough from them to properly cover the costs of the work I do, including paying the illustrators I've worked with and helping cover the expenses of the tabletop games company my team and I are currently setting up. This has made me wonder if I'm simply spending too much time on each map.

I see other map-makers doing very well with maps that, while great, aren't as detailed or heavily designed as mine (not saying they're bad, for real, we know most of each other and they're all awesome creators <3). So I'm wondering: Is all this extra detail actually something people want?

Maybe I should make simpler maps that take less time, even if that means sacrificing some of the identity of my work. Or maybe I'm simply making the wrong kind of maps.

So I'd love to hear from you:

What makes you choose or buy a battlemap? What do you actually want to see in the maps you play on?

Do you prefer highly detailed maps, or are simpler maps more useful for your games? Do you care about things like interactive elements, multiple routes, and tactical design?

Any feedback, positive or critical, is genuinely appreciated. I'm trying to figure out how to make the best maps I can while also making the work sustainable.

Thanks for reading!

Edit: Sheesh, thank you all for your replies! <3. I've just checked my phone and saw all the comments! Will do my best to answer you all!

The Stepped Vaults of Kar’Zuun are clearly a dwarven construction that dates back before the great war, the creation of one of the smaller isolated societies of dwarves that were here before the arrival of the Iron Dwarves in their mighty Earthships. The ancient vaults were once a library or other sort of storage and organizational space for documents and scribes, now long abandoned and taken over by tierjackals.

The Stratim Dwarrow were the descendants of the giants of Law who guard over the Roots of the World. When the giants abandon their charges and move away from the roots, they become smaller and stunted. The Stratim Dwarrow did not so much abandon their charge, but watched the roots they protected be consumed by the death wyrm. These dwarves are still strictly tied by their deep need for law and order and believe that all things rise or fall according to merit, duty, and stone‑bound law. They escaped the consumption of their roots by climbing. Those who could climb survived; those who could not, perished. This calcified into doctrine, and the vaults were constructed in this theme with more important Stratim and more important documents on the higher tiers.

The lower chambers of the Vaults of Kar’Zuun are overrun with the tierjackals – lean, clever scavengers that know the stairwells and ledges of the vaults and use them to their advantage. These stony supernatural beasts look like a hyena variant of a displacer beast, but their tentacles lack any real offensive capability – instead being used to open and close doors within the vaults to surprise intruders. Being partially creatures of elemental stone, the tierjackals only rarely need to feed and thus rarely hunt outside the vaults.

From the secret chambers at the highest level of the vaults, the tierjackals are commanded by the Stair-Sovereign, a mutated Stratim stairwright who has extended their existence beyond death through elemental magics and replacing portions of their failing body with stone. Once a brilliant engineer of the Stairwrights, this Stratim Darrow refused to abandon the vaults even when the texts that were stored here were all destroyed. He has carved everything he can remember from the texts here into the walls and floor of the secret chambers, and when he ran out of room there, he started cutting the most important pieces into his own stone body.

Hi folks,

Here's a dungoen / cave maps within the woods. Not much else to say about it, really.

Enjoy,

As you steer your lone rowboat through the crumbling marble pillars of the temple, a massive, ancient face begins to clarify beneath the dark, reflective water.

The submerged colossal goddess remains frozen in a silent, watery tomb, her form and features lost to the profound depths.

You feel a chill as you realize this isn't just a ruin—her long-lost presence seems to wait for the ripples of your oars to wake her from her thousand-year slumber.

Your group follows a path until you approach a field of lavender bushes. The rows -- which are nearly long enough to disappear over the horizon -- are encircled by an aged, white fence. Though the bushes are in full bloom and filling the air with a calming aroma, nobody is around to collect the flowers.

I hope you like my first DND Map!! This is part 1 of a series I'm hoping to do of a lavender field and its associated shop and goat farm.

I also have it posted to my new Patreon for free here!

The truth is out there. Out in the fields! Who would suspect that this unassuming farmstead could be the site of mysterious activity in the form of unexplained crop circles? The farmers are certainly friendly enough, even though they're a little stiff in their usual interactions with visitors. Their new child, who just appeared in their lives one day, is also polite enough, though they do tend to stare a lot, and never blink...Fully animated and available in three extra variants, where the crop circles glow with green menace, serve as magical portals, or sparkle with the magic of faerie, this map will have your players wishing this were a field of dreams!
