I drew-up a few map-tiles on little card-stock squares I had lying around for use in our most recent Wermspittle game. We didn't use the Leaking, Fractured Sphere (Upper Left), nor the Scout Airship (Lower Right), but they might come in handy some other time. The Morlock Well (Mid-Left) and the Downed Tripod (Mid-right) both made it into the game, as did the Nasty Cloud of Black Smoke (Lower-Left).
We began with a roll of kid's sketch-paper from IKEA as the base map and just randomly drew-out the curly-swirly Yellow Brick Roads, the Craters and debris from the bombing, and then the various buildings that were left more or less standing at the beginning of the game. The tiles then were dropped willy-nilly onto the map and we got playing.
This worked very well for our group and I'm going to put together a set for the next time we go run something at a convention or elsewhere.

Cool. The titles the names make them all the more evocative.
ReplyDeleteThanks. These were rough-drafts. Sort of a proof-of-concept thing. They worked really well so I'm seriously considering doing-up a colorized set for future gaming sessions.
DeleteThese are great! The downed tripod tile map will get some use from me soomer or later.
ReplyDeleteThese are just rough-drafts and some of them are already a bit smeared--but thankfully no Cheetos-stains yet! I plan on doing a set that will be in full color for future use. I'll keep you updated!
