    Default New Strip Map that I created for my D&D campaign

    Hello everyone,

    This is a strip map I created to be part of a treasure hoard found in one of my D&D games.

    It is a map that, instead of showing the surrounding area, simply shows the route from one destination to another by only showing what is around the road the person is travelling on. These kind of maps were popular in England during the 1600's

    Enjoy.

    You don't get to see a lot of these style maps very often.
    You did a good job with this style Tonnichiwa.

    The cartouche would need a bit more work to fit well with the rest, but a very good job overall!
    I really like this concept.

    Thank you for the critique, it is very much appreciated. I always like to know where I can improve. The reason I left the cartouche this way is because I did not want it to pull away the eye of the person looking at this, from the map to the cartouche. But I suppose more color on it or something may have been better.

    Anyway, I'm glad you like it

    I like it! It's perfect for a point-crawl style campaign. Makes for a great handout too. Nice work.

    Cheers,

    Very nice - I love these kinds of maps. I have been meaning to do one for my Argot project at some point.
    My new Deviant-thing. I finally caved.

    Thanks guys! I am very glad you like it.

    I think this style of map would work well as a map for caravans travelling trade routes. Maybe something like Marco Polo's travels.

    Hmm...maybe something for the future...
