The Enduring Circle is growing - starting with the Crane & Trout Inn

Tl;dr: A new Extra Map for Patrons with 6+ months of continuous support - currently in the works!
Hey everyone,

I've been planning to do this for quite a while, and I finally had the right opportunity to start introducing a new way of saying thank you to you - my Patrons - for the months of continuous support for me and my project.

So this post is a message both to you and to everyone around here that, starting this month, there will be a special reward in the form of a full riverside inn location: The Crane & Trout Inn.
(The map is still a work in progress, but I wanted to give you a first look at what I'm currently working on for this reward.)

The location will be available to Patrons who have supported me for 6 months or longer, and that support milestone will be the only way to unlock this map.

This matters to me first and foremost as a way of saying thank you.


As for what comes next and how I'd like to develop this idea: over the next few months, more extra locations will be added for further support milestones: 1 year, 2 years and 3+ years.

This is basically an expansion of The Enduring Circle concept. But besides giving you a shout-out for each support milestone, I also want to give you something tangible and actually useful.

For now, these extra maps will be sent out manually, either through a private Patreon message or by email - I'll see which option makes more sense in practice. I'll be doing this at the beginning of each month for Patrons who have reached the required milestone.


As for the type of maps, I'll try to make them as evergreen as possible - locations that can be used in almost any campaign and, ideally, used more than once.

Something that will actually be useful, rather than something like: an attack of robotic ants during a collision between two planets. :)


I've already spent quite a lot of time creating these extra maps, because I wanted them to be detailed and to work well not only as battlemaps, but also for POV scenes and cinematics.

And I know that your support is absolutely worth it.

I hope you'll enjoy these extra maps!

Cheers!
