    Something My eyes don't like....I don't see the need to have a different color around the rooms...If I understand you right the Crypt is suppose to be Inside a Mountain, so why do you feel the need to outline the rooms..

    For me on the First level it makes it hard to at first find the entrance...

    jostod, not sure I'm understanding what you mean by outline the rooms.

    The thought was that the entrance of the crypt (the southern part) was exposed built into the face of the mountain kinda like this

    in your opinion what do you think would draw more attention to the entrance?

    Do away with the Extra Shading and Area outside of the Rooms....What purpose does it serve....Is the a way into the Second grey area outside of the Rooms?

    Still confused and I could just be being dense.

    OK so the way it works is like this.

    1 is the outer entrance there is a stone door

    2 is a entrance with a continual flame that needs to be used to light both of the braziers on either side of the door. If only the left one is lit 3b opens, right one opens 3a

    3 is the main area with three lion fountains the jewels in the coffins in area 3a and 3b are inserted into the northern lion head and then the wall opens to 3c

    3c contains four additional jewels on the altar the sword is on, these are used in the corresponding fountain to open the wall to area 4

    Are you suggesting getting rid of the main entrance south of area 2?

    I made this several years ago; https://www.cartographersguild.com/s...ead.php?t=5276

    Take a look maybe it will give you some ideas.

    OOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHH!

    ok that so that area actually is something, the initial idea was a ledge that some neferrious critter could perch on...then I got to thinking that maybe, drawing from the Indiana Jones inspiration that a rival group of treasure hunters could have beat the party here and set up an ambush.

    I think I have a version without the ledge and the top exposed just a bit through the rocks. I'll post it later so you can see what I mean.

    And Steel General, I should thank you since I used that map to great effectiveness in a game a few years ago.
