The Flying Rook is the sort of place wizards build to show off. Anyone with the power to keep this architectural Frankenstein standing is no joke, but-- just in case anyone wasn't fully convinced-- they made it fly as well.

I didn't have any particular purpose in mind when I added the windmill, but, the more I think about it, the more I'm wondering-- and hear me out here-- what if it was a propeller? Like, what if this whole thing was kind of an airship? That's not for everybody's game, of course, but it's an idea you could roll around in your head if you want to do something a little different.

So, now that we've got that 13-story building taken care of, I'll be moving on to something considerably bigger. Naturally.

As I mentioned before, I'll be drawing Fort Bourtange, a magnificent 16th century star fort and grapeshot dispensary in the Netherlands. It's a big place, but I believe it's all one level, so it shouldn't take an unreasonable amount of time. I think I might get it done by the end of the month, but I don't want to make any promises.

I'll be making an unfurnished version of the map as well so you can use it as a village instead of a fort if you prefer. And it actually was a village for a few centuries, so that's not a stretch.

Well, I've been champing at the bit to get started on this map for a couple months now, so I think I'm gonna go do that. Let me know what you think of the Rook!

Very useful. Thought you might enjoy how it might be used. For my group, the Flying Rook will patrol the borders of “Old Wicked One” in an Alternative Greyhawk campaign (CY 1026). The Flying Rook will serve as one of meeting places for the Obsidian Circle (Circle of Eight evolved to larger membership). The “rook” chess piece name hints on a spatial strategic linkage of other towers. Two (joke) questions; does it come in black (Obsidian)? & when will we see the other “tower pieces” (bishop, knight, Queen).? In seriousness … Brilliant work, thanks in advance for the memories.

You're welcome in advance. The problem with doing other chess pieces is that this should probably have been the Flying Bishop, haha.
