Map Project ... Create a Series of 24x36 1"=5' Battle Map to map a City

**jpstod** · 03-30-2016, 08:47 PM

I am considering starting a series of 24x36 1'=5' Battle Maps to create a small city.
The concept is to create a series of Maps that can be rearrange to map out Small cities by moving around the Maps

I am thinking of starting with 12 Maps which would consist of 12 Common Places found in most small cities
Church, Tavern, Inn, General Store, Small Keep, Blacksmith, Town Square (Market Stalls), Stables

What do yall think is a Must in every town?

Well, what genre? For medieval high fantasy I would say you have got all of your bases covered. For the old west I would say add a brothel and a bank and ditch the small keep. Keep the tavern and the Stables. For modern day I would say a church, a tavern, an inn or hotel/motel, a police station, and probably a movie theatre. For a futuristic I would say everything for a modern but now you add a transportation management building for either futuristic trains, shuttles, space ships etc.

Fantasy/Medieval Setting...
I decided on 9 Maps... non-directional so the can be used any orientation.
Finalizing the Kick Starter now.

Think you're pretty much set with those buildings - you can always expand later

... I have started a similar project myself a long time ago.. then got sidetracked by a new job, but trying to get back to mapping again

... I wish you good luck with your kickstarter and look forward to seeing your maps

Nice work JP. I also have started a similar project that may eventually end up on Kickstarter, but probably not for quite a while, if I ever get it finished. Best of luck with your KS project!
