    Map Black Magga at the Flooded Church

    The players in my Rise of the Runelords group are about to reach an encounter with a really big scary thing called Black Magga, so I thought I'd make a map for the encounter. It takes place at a church in the midst a flood.

    Scale is 100 pixels to the inch; dimensions are 40 inches by 50 inches. I had to dial the compression down quite a lot to get them under the forum's size limits, and they've got some distortion in places as a result. Serves me right for making them big, I guess. Anyway, if you want the higher quality versions, you can get 'em here:

    The terrain corresponds in both shape and scale to the map of Turtleback Ferry in the RotRL Anniversary Edition appendix. The church isn't the same shape, though -- I could have made one, but time was an issue. I also added some high points because I plan on running the flood a bit deeper than written.

    It's not the best. The flooded areas could do with a lot more work to convey the presence and depth of the water. But I only had 2 hours to give it, so this is what we've got. Made with textures from cgtextures, buildings and tree from the Dundjinni forums, and Photoshop witchery.

    Turned out nice for the time constraints. I'm sure having a visual aid like that will improve everyone's experience weather or not its your best work.

    I think my favorite part of this was the grid lines that get rippled underwater. It made me smile when I thought of doing that. ^_^
