I'm glad to hear that! Let me know if you had any suggestions or tweaks that might make it better.

Nilfy wasn’t happy trying to find a landing spot in the middle of the map, but I wouldn’t change anything, it was just the situation I was in. Map had a nice flow to it. My group will definitely play it again!

Gotcha. Well - I'm glad it'll see the table again. Thanks!

He generally doesnt have to get right in there because of his special attack and he can run his lizard minions in where he cant fit. Map looks pretty good Id say.

That is a great question! My favorite maps I've made tend to be the ones I'm currently working on. lol. But the ones I think I like the most that I've posted are Graystone Way, The Crypt, and Royal Gardens.
I love them because Graystone Way seems to flow/play really well, The Crypt just drips in theme - it feels like you're battling it out in an actual Crypt, and I think Royal Gardens looks so aesthetically pleasing. Honorable mentions would probably be Frostmire and Solitude.

I do have a handful of maps in development right now though that I really like. I'm looking forward to getting them posted soon.

Thanks for asking! What are some characteristics that you like to see in maps?

[Flash_19]

Sorry I've been slowing down a bit on these! I've got a few more in development that should be out soon though including another 3-player map. Hope you like it!

No, Flash.... You can't keep adding stuff to my list like this. I'll never play all the maps I want to try...

I do like this one. Great aesthetic, pathing, and all that other stuff you're used to hearing. My only concern is that without power glyphs there are some pretty defensive locations an army can really hunker down on. I'm looking mostly at the right side where there are chokepoints, along with high ground ice that defenders can sit on while range shoots. That said, looks like range options would be limited from there -- hard to tell without building the map (at least for me, because I'm a scrub).

Thanks for the feedback, Bigga! Yeah - I went back and forth on power glyphs for a while. Who knows. I might still change my mind.

Time for a secret. I've been working quite a bit on a D&D style campaign in the style of the River of Blood. It's not quite ready yet, but I enjoy D&D style campaigns, and really wanted to do one myself - especially considering there haven't been many posted recently.

As I was working on the third room in the campaign, I realized that it might make a sweet map for regular 1 on 1 play. I had to make a few tweaks to make it flow better (and I had to add start zones), but I like how it turned out altogether. I'd love to hear your thoughts on the map, and also any thoughts you have about D&D style campaigns. I'm actually still debating between designating four heroes to play through the campaign with (like the original campaign in the D&D Master Set Manual), or making it more like the River of Blood scenario where you draft an army.
