Cold Iron Mines - Master Tier

Added 2023-11-01 07:05:01 +0000 UTC

The Cold Iron Mines are found deep in the heart of the Dwarven Kingdom. They staunchly guard over it, as it is one of the only sources of the rare metal. Aye, it is just like they say, the mine is cold, and the ore is even colder. It takes a keen eye, and a trained hand to harvest the raw ore from the caves. Only the finest forgers are employed, it takes them days on end to craft just one cold iron piece. They say the greatest weapons against evil and chaos are dwarven crafted, and this would be the mine that such miracles occur. They Cold Iron Mines are a vast complex of twisting caves, but there are developed workshops and dwarven sites attached. The place is a twisting maze, alive and functioning with miners’ day and night. – Hackerd, Historian of Marsten

The Cold Iron Mines is a scenario set of a dwarven mining complex. It features the processing center, some living quarters, a jail, and a small stronghold. It is complete with winding mines, some are carved with precision, others are still natural and ripe with minerals. There are four complete maps that make up the scenario kit; the originals depict a living mine, upkept and functional, while the alternates feature a darker, aged site, suitable for a grim dungeon.

This is the Master tier, which comprises all of the maps: the original four and four more alternates. There are GM maps and a manual that has a key with area descriptions, read aloud texts, and helpful hints to make adapting the scenes into your homebrew game quick and easy. Plus, a Foundry VTT file with the scenes pre-lit. Also available at the Legend Tier are blank alternates of all the maps and an asset pack that can be used to decorate! All of the maps are 40x30 [4000x3000 px / 100px grid), rendered in 4K HD.

The maps included in the Master Tier can be seen below, with examples of the GM Manual and some pre-lit FoundryVTT scenes. The zip files are at the very bottom.
