This Map Pack consists of a large-scale Bandit Camp and Surrounding Woods that is meant to be played on a 240 x 160 grid.

Intro Story

The tracks led to the northeast. Many of them.

Jhoril rose from his crouch and turned back to the party, "Yes, they came this way and headed through that copse ahead and around that bend."

Griggs flexed his fingers about the haft of his battle axe, "Finally! No more sneaking - it's slaying time!" Griggs took one might step forward before Jhoril's hand laid across his chest.

Jhoril lifted his hand and pointed toward the sky to the northeast. "Not so quick, Griggs, lest you sign our death sentence. See that there? Smoke..." Turning back toward Griggs, he continued, "...and where there's smoke, there's..."

Griggs blinked.

"Dinner."

Jhoril squinted for a moment and then said, "No, not dinner."

"Squinting."

Jhoril put a fist to his mouth and pursed his lips.

Griggs paused for a moment, then snapped his fingers. Jhoril looked up hopefully.

"Magic."

Jhoril lifted his hands silently before him, an exasperated expression taking root upon his face as he turned away and began walking southwest through the wood. Griggs reached a hand to his bald head, giving a quizzical scratch of his scalp.

Taking a step to follow Jhoril southwest, he shouted, "Dragons!?"

This battlemap is intended to be played on a 240 x 160 grid, providing a massive field of play for your party to explore or assault. The surrounding area contains several levels of stony ridges, a waterfall and river snaking its way southeast through the camp and bisecting the main camp from a smaller, secondary camp.

We have a great landscape scene, by Floris Roding:

And an example of the map itself:

Several wooden guard towers have been erected, as has a stout wooden wall to protect the growing camp. Smaller ridges line the southern expanse, marked by towers and sheltering a small logging camp at its base.

Multiple entrances. Multiple exits. Elevation. Cover. And tons of room for people to make good use of tactics involving bow ranges, spell ranges, stealth, swimming, climbing and other potential shenanigans.

If you don't happen to be running a campaign with a bandit camp, this could also easily be a starting village, logging village or other similar place within your game world that has nothing to do with bandits.

I've attached a Watermarked version at the end of the post.

I hope you can create all kinds of great stories with it!
