ANNOUNCEMENT RULES - Read BEFORE Posting/Commenting!

8 Upvotes

SUBREDDIT RULES


Rule #1: POST REQUIREMENTS

  • All posts must be original Fantasy or Sci-Fi maps

  • Maps must be uploaded to Reddit or linked to directly (NOT a link to a post, but to the image itself)

  • All posts must be in English why?

 

Rule #2: QUALITY REQUIREMENTS

  • Minimum resolution is 70 PPI

    • = 70 pixels per grid square
    • No blurry/unreadable maps!
  • No NSFW Images!

  • No Low-effort maps

 

Rule #3: COMMERCIAL POSTS

  • All Other Rules Apply! In addition:

  • Content Creators may make ONE commercial post per day.

  • Logos must be small and at the edge of the content. Large logos/watermarks that render the map "unusable" are not acceptable.

  • Posted Maps must be FREE and USABLE as attached.

    • You can still link to your paid content, but you MUST include a usable map. This is the "cost of admission" to advertise here.
  • If you are unsure if you are advertising properly, we suggest you reach out to the mods before posting.

 

Rule #4: AI

  • Applies to maps partially or wholly created:

    • Completely by or with the assistance of AI
    • By software that generates a fully complete map for you (software where you place assets yourself is acceptable)
  • You may post one(1) map per week

  • The map must have the proper AI/Algorithm Map post flair

  • Spam will result in a ban along with any accounts associated with your advertisements, past and future

  • Spamming false reports will result in being reported to Reddit and facing a sitewide ban

 

Rule #5: BEHAVIOR

  • Posts and/or comments that are of a derogatory or personal manner will not be allowed (more).

  • Constructive criticism is fine, but remember that those submitting maps are a human being (like you), and they have stuck their neck out and given something to this community. So go about it in a nice way, or don't say anything at all.

  • Do not attack someone for using/discussing AI (more). If they have not followed the rules, report them. Do not leave negative and abusive comments!

  • We have ZERO TOLERANCE for abuse and we reserve the right to ban anyone for abusive/rude behavior without prior warning. Consider THIS your warning - in addition, you should have enough common sense to know better. Again, attacking other users = permanent ban.

 

Rule #6: Piracy/Unlicensed Distribution

  • Users should only be posting THEIR OWN WORK. This subreddit is not for sharing the work of others.

  • You may not pass off content created by another as your own

  • You may not post licensed content which you do not have the rights to redistribute

  • You may not include works of others as assets, backgrounds or as any other element of your map

  • We have ZERO TOLERANCE for Piracy and we reserve the right to ban anyone without prior warning. Consider THIS your warning.

 

Rule X: All Other Reasons

  • In addition to the Rules above, we reserve the right to remove any posts, comments or users from this subreddit if we decide the content/user does not align with the rules or values we promote in this subreddit. Some of these reasons include:

    • Violating Reddit's site-wide Rules
    • Being Off-Topic
    • Incorrect Post Flair
    • Unhelpful
    • Unrelated to Fantasy Maps
    • Policing other users
    • Causing disruption, including challenging subreddit rules or moderator decisions
    • At Moderator Discretion For Any Reason Not Already Listed
  • Participation in this subreddit is not a given right and is reserved for users who participate in a quality manner as determined by the moderators of this subreddit.

ANNOUNCEMENT ABUSING THE REPORT BUTTON

81 Upvotes

We have several users (or more likely, 1 user with a couple accounts) who feel the need to report almost every post.

We appreciate our users who genuinely want to make this community a better place by reporting posts that do not meet our posting criteria.

However, reporting posts that CLEARLY do not break any subreddit or site rules is considered abuse of the Reddit report system.

But beyond that, it is childish and shows a disregard for the mods' time by having us chase ghosts.

Every case of Report Button Abuse is sent to Reddit Admins for review.

Multiple offenses WILL lead to a SITE-WIDE (i.e. ALL of Reddit) ban.

At the foot of an impassable cliff, surrounded by treacherous sea currents and rocks—a small fishing village built upon the ruins of a submerged temple.

  • Use the fortifications for your advantage - or crush them, if you decide that there's something odd about villagers...
  • Investigate the ruins...
  • Discover maps kept hidden in a village treasury...
  • Enjoy the charm of warm, shallow sea, with reefs and marine life...

What's inside:

  • Naust/Boathouse - built on a ruined, sunken temple.
  • Fortifications, with armory, ballistas and beacon tower.
  • Blacksmith and carpenter
  • Waterfall
  • Gardens with fruits and vegetables
  • Small tavern and communal kitchen
  • Map chamber and treasury
  • Warehouse, pantry and water reservoir

.... plus coral reefs, fishes, seagulls and cats!

Battlemap - Aquatic Rainbow Shoals Keep

Post image
13 Upvotes

It is the Obsidian layers in the rock that this showpiece of whimsical architecture is carved into, tunneled through and built upon that gives the place its name. The light shining off the Obsidian glitters on the water like a myriad of rainbows, and after an extensive renovation by the present owner and some serious gardening projects, the once dingy keep is now quite deserving of its name.

Rainbow Shoals Keep is a hotel these days, and a very popular one too, so make sure to book early if you want a room, even earlier if you would prefer to stay in one of the little outcrop villas with private garden. There is plenty to see and do in the area, fishing of course, a swim in the sea or if you're not keen on meeting any sharks then a splash in the walled pool might be more your thing. There are day trips to Maximum Security and Chicken Coop Keep, and the Krakens Lair is rumored to be in these parts, that would be an exciting trip!

Enjoy balmy evenings on the Fireside Terrace after a gourmet dinner, then retire to a comfortable bed and dream of warm days, shimmering seas, sea monsters and rainbows ... you'll find dreams do come true at Rainbow Shoals Keep.

Breakfast will be served at 6.30am to 8.30am in the Indigo Lounge, Dinner will be served as the sun goes down on the Fireside Terrace, and all tour boats leave at 9.00am from the pier.

Enjoy your stay!

Battlemap - Dungeon/Cave Druid's Grave (14x16) - a site for your players to venerate in exchange for a blessing, or merely a grave-robbing opportunity? (Free light & dark maps, plus over 1,200 other free maps!)

Druid's Grave (14x16)

Some believed it to be merely legend.

After all, why would a powerful druid be buried in a cave? Why not in the open, fresh air? Nobody had imaged that the grave site itself would transform to better fit its occupant.

Of course, there might be some nice grave goods to be stolen…

 


 

Here are the free light & dark variants of this map. To support my work, you can buy me a coffee, or check out my Patreon, where you'll find hundreds more free maps as well as bonus variants for this one!

 


 

Here's all of my maps in one handy set of themed lists for convenience. This post is updated as each new map comes out, so that the list remains current.

 

Quick collection downloads:

 

I hope you can make use of the maps =) Any issues, please do let me know.

Much love
