[Work In Progress] Mid-Month Workshop Update

Hey everyone,

We’re halfway through the month, so it’s time for some news and updates straight from the workshop!

And I’ll admit it - no map has ever dragged me through the mud quite as much as the Crane and Trout Inn. Not because the map itself is insanely complicated. Nope.

It’s because I approached this project very ambitiously. I really wanted to give you - my Patrons who have been supporting me for the past six months - a seriously chunky, packed-to-the-brim bundle of maps for this inn.

The result is that I’ve been spending pretty much every free moment on post-production for this location. And at some point, I had to stop and ask myself a very simple question: Are all these variants actually going to be equally useful at the table?

So I put myself in the GM’s shoes and started thinking about which parts of this location actually matter from the perspective of a tactical battlemap. And that’s how... I ended up cutting some content.

Because sure, I could stuff the final ZIP with 30 GB of files just for the sake of making it huge. But what’s the point if, realistically, only three or four versions are the ones you’re actually going to use?

So some of the maps from this location have been moved to the parking lot.

And I’m deliberately calling it a parking lot, because that doesn’t necessarily mean they’re gone forever. I may still release some of them on another occasion.

Either way, the bundle you’ll get toward the end of this month is still going to be pretty damn chunky. I can’t even give you the exact number right now, but altogether we’re probably looking at something around 50 video files with different map variants.

And that’s still not the end of map work this month. Because we also have the regular releases coming.

They’ll just land a little closer to the end of the month this time.

Cheers!
