Content

Good morning! It's the last map in April, and to finish off the Shops & Establishments theme, here's a whole bunch of shops in the form of a marketplace in a mesoamerican-inspired courtyard. Large flanking walls on all sides provide good locations for observers or snipers, while the tents might provide concealment (if not cover).

(Regarding tactics, it may be good to treat the contents of the tents as mere rough terrain rather than a hard obstacle - shoved aside in a hurry, there's probably no reason why a determined player couldn't storm straight through. Inform them of this ahead of time, or else they might not think to ask!)

Variants

Supporter: A busy market during the day and night (with a lit night-market version in case you prefer your shopping after-hours), plus a training yard in both ordinary and Pokemon variants - for training both muscles and your glorified dog-fight animals.
Enthusiast: The courtyard is cleared to reveal the mural, and provide a large open area in which to host a violent disagreement or duel with the local priest - an altar variant with two braziers is also provided, and an extra bloody version is supplied too.
Benefactor: Plain versions of every map - the market, the courtyard, the training yard, and the Pokemon arena - in case you're not big on the mesoamerican art. Also included is a bonus glowy plaza inspired by Planeptune, the best city in all of Gamindustri, which would probably work fine in either sci-fi games or really weird fantasy campaigns.
