March is nearly upon us, which means it's time for another vote on what map you would like to see most! I've had several requests for more wilderness/encounter based maps, so my current plan is to create a handful of these random encounter-based maps based on your votes. I will try taking the top 3-voted options and make those a map this month, as they will largely be open wilderness.
My general approach for open-wilderness maps includes:
| Multiple entry points and exists, both for where the party can be traveling form, as well as where they can leave, or opponents can enter.
| Multiple levels of elevation to make combat and encounters more varied, challenging and interesting.
| Multiple "points of interest" that could be used for the foundation of an encounter and/or part of a story.
| Multiple in-map entry/exits (cave mouths, holes, etc...) that can easily lead to another map, so that you could easily slot something additional from the base map, whether that be a monster den, twisting caverns, bandit lair or cult hideout.
I will set up a Poll shortly for you to vote on what you would like to see most!
Best,
Jeff @ Morvold
