Hi Everyone!

I am very excited to announce that the Kickstarter for Volume 3 of Into the Wilds Battlemap Books will be live on April 9th at 9am EST! 

As previously announced Volume 3 will be the Urban Edition. The 3 new titles are:

  • Castles & Keeps
  • Towns & Cities
  • Traders & Dwellings

If you missed out on the last Kickstarter, or want to get some more of the books from Volume 1 & 2, they will also be available as part of this Kickstarter campaign.

The artwork for the new books and extras is all complete and we already have final samples, some of which I can share with you now for a special sneak preview!

After you've checked out everything below, make sure to sign up to be notified when we go live! The more orders we get on Day 1 the better, meaning I can continue to make more products like these in the future.

What is it?

Into the Wilds is a collection of 9 fully customisable, biome and region themed physical battlemap books for your favourite TTRPG. They are ideal for pre-set or random encounters, so you can be fully prepared no matter which direction your players choose to head in

The battlemaps come in two variations, a fully-furnished highly-detailed version with props and assets already placed for an extra level of immersion and story telling, and a second unfurnished version for you to customise however you need with the included re-usable asset stickers or that trusty dry-erase marker.

Preview Images

This is everything that comes in the Volume 3 box set. Laid out it completely covers my dining table. If you backed the last Kickstarter you know these things are BIG.

When opened up the books are 22x17 inches, big enough for varied encounters with multiple PCs and creatures, but not so big they can't be used at the table. The spiral binding means they lay perfectly flat, and the spirals are small enough that they don't get in the way of gameplay.

If you get the Deluxe Volume Box Set, it also includes the GM Screen and XL 34x22 inch fold-out maps, which in Volume 3 are of the Adventurer's Guildhall (2 Levels).

Interior Spreads

I know everyone will want to know which maps are in each book, so you can check out the previews below. There may also be a few more added depending on which Stretch Goals we reach. Patrons will recognise many of these, but there are also a few Kickstarter exclusives and redux versions.

I will have more to share closer to the time, including all the pledge tiers and prices. For now let me know if you have any questions in the comments and I will answer what I can!

Remember to sign up for the launch notification! 

The Neverling

If you have used any of my VTT Creature, BBEG or NPC tokens, you already know his work. The Neverling is live on Kickstarter right now!

A twisted awakened tree has covered the town of Timberborn in nightmarish clockwork insects. The only way to stop it is a secret lost in a corrupted clockwork tower.

From the author of Seeds of Decay, the Neverling for 5e will send your players on a deadly romp through a corrupted clockwork tower! Back the Neverling on Kickstarter today!

Will we have the option to pick up Volume 1 and 2 as part of the pledge for volume 3 during the campaign or in the pledge manager?
