DOTM #5 - The Devil Will Drag You Under
I'm making a separate post about the fifth Dungeon Of The Month release, The Devil Will Drag You Under, as I am taking a new direction with the adventure maps in this one. I would appreciate any comments on this design.
Are more naturalistic maps like this too difficult to set up and/or play? Would it be better recast as a pure megahex map? Is there a better way to portray map elements like the underwater tunnels? All feedback is welcome, thanks! |

Nice! I like the map very much; I prefer this style of 'play space' to the arena-style spaces depicted in your previous releases.

Thanks! Future DOTMs will have more involved maps as well, some of which can be built from the megahex set, and some (like this) which are entirely freeform. I'm glad this gets a positive vote from you.

I love it as well - I think the representation of the water hexes works very well.
I absolutely don't mind going beyond the MegaHexes from Legacy Edition. Then again, I printed a poster-sized laminated MegaHex mat at an office supply shop. |

Thank you! I do assume that a fair number of folks have some kind of hex mat by now. Those that don't can hopefully print out the map to scale and perhaps cut it up so that they can reveal each room as discovered.

My first reaction on seeing the map (without even having read the text); "Oh, I LIKE that!"
This one is great! (They all are, but this one is the best one yet!) |
