    Map Two new maps for 'The Dark Eye'

    Hey guys!

    I'm finally allowed to whow you two new works recently got published! =)

    No. 1: Shamaham was a little town in Tobrien from the German P&P-RPG 'The Dark Eye' (Das Schwarze Auge). There was a really old plan depicting this town. But since then really much happened here so I put a lot of thought into what actually could have changed, what people would do and how this would develop during the course of the campaigns in this area. Also, I tried to keep as much of the flair and recognizability I possibly could. Overall: It was a LOT of fun

    No. 2: A map depicting the Region known as 'Vildromtal' in Tobrien from the German P&P-RPG 'The Dark Eye' (Das schwarze Auge). It is near the town, but not depicting the location of the town.

    Both publications: 'Töchter der Rache', Copyright Ulisses Spiele, 2015

    Hope you like them! =)
    Cheers, Steffen

    Oh, totally forgot that one. A bit more basic, but nevertheless. Kind of a dungeon... =)

    Looks nice Steffen ! The only minor comment is about the third map : the title oriented in a different way than the numbers looks a bit odd.

    Yeah, I planned it would be published on the left side, so the title would be readable in normal order and the numbers would be readable if you flip the book like you are supposed to in this wide plan. This was the intention. Thanks =)

    Thanks =) It's about the 25th publication I contributed to, I'm really happy to hit the 25-goal I made a while ago.
    You can't rep me just means you already did shortly. So - if it remained unsaid on my side - thanks anyway! =)

    These are very good Steffen. Sharp, informative and beautiful. Often, BW maps can feel "cluttered", however, you manage to keep them light. A impressive feet, that gives them a very professional look.

    Cheers,

    Very nice maps... I love the DSA system and setting.

    But there is a little quirk that bothers me. In the second map, the title "das Vildromtal"... is the use of the long-s a stylistic decision or just a mistake?
