Hi everyone!
May the 4th Be With You!
To celebrate this auspicious day, we've got a new map and a bundle, both with amazing discounts!
First off, we've got a brand new map - and it's huge! The Galactic C...

Hey everyone!
Hope you're all doing well!
You'll be getting the reward bundle for May in a couple of days - full of awesome maps you'll love!
We didn't get to play any games of D&D this month . We were off to Rome for a week (which was amazing and very inspiring), and then towards the end of the month I ran a wargame at Europe's largest wargame show. That's my hobby, aside from D&D etc - I like historical wargaming.
The picture below is the 14ft table I p...

Hey everyone,
We've gone for something rather different this month, but hopefully you'll love it!
Instead of exploring the depths of space, why not explore the depths of the oceans in The Coelacanth, a futuristic submarine.

Hey everyone,
Time for the Third Map preview!
We thought it would be very useful to have a little Market Street - a winding city street with a selection of market stalls and small shops where you can pick up essentials. There's also some light industry, with a couple of tanneries.
Hi everyone!
We loved seeing the enthusiasm for turning the Bandit King lair into a Greco-Roman Baths. Amazing how many of you can find a place for it in your games.
We hope this works for you - we've made the two large chambers open-air, with deep pools. There's plenty of benches for sitting round and chatting, changing rooms, a steam room and more.

Hey all,
We've been working hard on a huge new map - something we originally discussed doing maybe 5 years ago.
We've always wanted to do a huge magic school/university - and we finally got round to it!
Wyrmwand Towers is a set of 50x50 maps spread across seven levels. There's lots of classrooms, dorms, common rooms, ancient libraries, a great hall, secret dungeons and more.

Hey everyone,
Apologies for the radio-silence the past week or so. We took a little week-long break and flew to Rome, so the days before the trip we were preoccupied with last minute prep etc! We had a fantastic time. Sarah had been before (20+ years ago) but neither I or our children had, so we were all really excited. We managed to cram in loads - very inspirational!
It's a little later than usual, but it's time for the Alt-version Poll. The MotM is the Bandit ...

Hey everyone,
Time for a preview!
For May's MotM, we've got a 30x60 dungeonesque Bandit King lair, with great halls, burning braziers and cells for prisoners.
We've got some fun variants planned for it, including an overgrown ruin and a Witch King throne room.

Hi everyone!
Thanks so much for your support this month!
We're happy to say that reward bundles are with you now - you can get the links in your messages, grab the VTT files from the vault, and claim full products on DTRPG.
There's a couple of previews below this message that I think we forgot to share.
I had Covid last week, as did our youngest daughter, and Sarah's not well either (though she continues to test negative..) - it's meant that unfortunately this mo...

Happy New April!
We're excited to send you the rewards for April soon. It's a great set of maps and we hope they'll find a place in your games.
How have your games been this month? What's happened with your party, and which maps did you battle through?
We had some great sessions in the games at the start of the month. The party reached the village of Boulderfell and discovered a dungeon beneath a large stone. They ventured down there and foun...

Hey all,
We're deeper into the cave now, and discover an ancient temple - was it used to pacify the sea beast, or offer victims?
Hey all,
The winning idea for the alt-version of the Elven Wedding was to create a theatre in the forest. We hope you like how it's turned out.
This will be in the April reward bundle
Hey everyone,
We had so many great suggestions for last month's alt that we bumped them across to the Third Map for April. The winner of that poll was to turn the Dwarven Forge into a walled city garden.
We think it's a great space for intrigue and dashing adventure!
Hey everyone,
We've been very busy lately, and have a new DM Resource pack available now at DMsGuild.
Prisoner 13 is the 4th adventure from the Golden Vault book - you might have claimed a free copy of the adventure from D&D Beyond.
This pack features a huge 90x90 map of the prison, though we've also chopped it up smaller for convenience. We've mapped the exterior too, and also provided a prison transport ship.

Hey there,
Here's the previews of the four variants we've done of the Elven Wedding - enough to provide some great narrative ideas with the wedding location, but also a couple of very useful forest locations.

Hey everyone,
Last year we were very pleased to work with Lou Anders on his next Kickstarter - Vengeance of the Valravn!
We created 13 new maps, all with a Norse or winter theme. If you backed the KS, you might already have the maps, but if you didn't, now's the time to pick up the maps and the adventure!
Our bundle is at a deep discount of 50% for this week only - the best time to grab it.
We did a lovely selection of maps - barrows, Norse villages, different building...

First, we're really blown away by how well received the Elven Wedding map has been. Can't wait to share it with you all!
Secondly, there's so many amazing ideas for Alts that we've got quite an extensive 'shortlist'. Because of that, we've decided that the runner up in this poll will be May's Third Map.
So, the options are:
Travelling Theatre Troupe - a stage production set up in the 'arena', with ticket stalls, tents, outside tavern, car...

Hey everyone,
We're going back to our favourite cyberpunk location - New Atami! And this time, a staple of cyberpunk settings - a nightclub!
A nice large 30x30 map with plenty of space and rooms behind the scene!
Fully usable for modern games too!
Hey everyone!
For this month's MotM, we've got a rather different map - an Elven Wedding in a forest and ancient glade. It's a 30x60 map, with one half dedicated to the wedding feast, and the top half featuring the sacred grove and a lovely waterfall.
Variants - we've actually got 4 variants planned for this, instead of the usual 3 - Wedding at night, wedding m...

Hey, you brilliant map-fans~!~
Really happy to say that this month's rewards are zooming their way to you, and will be in your Patreon inbox and the VTT vaults right now! Huge set of huge maps!
There's some extras too - in Oncewall Village we've provided the full village (interior and exterior) in both blighted and nice versions (i.e. no barrier), and we've even given the barrier as a PNG, so you can split any communities you'd like!
Thanks so much for your support. It...

Last month there were so many cool ideas for the Alt-version of the Dwarven Forge, that we wanted to give some more a chance to come to life. So, for the next Third Map, we want you to vote on one of the alts of the Forge Father map.
As a reminder, the map looks like this:

Hey everyone!
Welcome to a new month with Heroic Maps :)
We really loved hearing your campaign details last time, so we'd love to hear what you're up to in your games :)
As for ours, we've found it a little tricky to get all the scheduled games in, but our party did manage to rescue the miner from the clutches of an ice mephit. They've now been entrusted to deliver an important stone to the Dwarven capital, just as their grandfathers did, but ran into some wolves in th...

Hey everyone,
It's just occurred to me that there's a fair number of preview pics I might not have shown! You'll be getting the actual maps on Sunday, but it doesn't hurt to see what you'll be getting. From the top of my head, I don't think you've seen the three variants or the mega maps, but let me know if there's another I haven't posted!

Hi everyone!
I know normally we ask you to vote on the Alt-version, but we had a little mini-break to the lovely city of Bath, and so we forgot to run the poll before we were scheduled to work on the map.
So, we picked one of our favourites, and our other favourites from your suggestions will be used in a Third Map poll for next month.
However, here's what we've come up with. A huge chamber filled with the sands of time, pouring in from huge lion heads on th...

Hey everyone,
We liked last month's suggestions for 'Barrier' that we had to make another. (if you recall, we did the Snowglobe last month).
We've picked a really useful idea (we think) - a village cut in half by a magical barrier. We'll be giving you two versions - one where either side is the same, and one where one side is blighted/shadowfell/evil etc. Interiors and rooftops etc for both variants.
