Maps:
1) Forrest Cliff Lair
2) Dragon Graveyard
3) Dragondown Grotto (EPIC)
4) Spawnscale Nursery (no start/exit/victory areas on map)

New Terrain Types:
1) Water and Waterfall on Forrest Cliff Lair
2) Steep Slopes and Zone of Death on Dragondown Grotto

Me like the new maps very much.

I'll try to get some pictures and or scanned in asap.

Cheers.

Thanks for the info, I was wondering if I should pick this up. This may be an expensive month with WotDQ, MM 4, and now this.

I have not gotten any of the Fantastic Locations. Since they are cheaper than SW Ultimate Missions maybe I'll pick them up. How many are there? Four?

There are four maps per package. I believe they have now released four sets.

Ok, I am having trouble putting in the scanned images. A little help please.

I have the first map scanned in as xxx.png files (8 sections).

How do I put the image here or links to image?

Thanks.

First, I'm sure someone will know more about the troubles of posting copyrighted pictures than I do...

Second, upload scans to a host (photobucket is free).

Third, use bracketimgunbracket http://www.whateveryourpictureisbracket/imgunbracket

I just got it also. The maps look great!

Dragondown Grotto map - 9 square dual victory area in middle of map and 4 square victory areas at the top and bottom middle of map

Steep slope- A nonflying creature that enters a steep slope immediately stops moving, takes 5 damage, and is then pushed to the nearest legal space that is on the bottom of the slope. A flying creature that ends its turn on steep slope, or that is moved into steep slope on another creature's turn, is similarly affected.

Forest - Two types of forest are present on this map, lush forests and deadfall. Both types use the rules for Forest terrain.

Zone of Death - The 1-square-wide band around the central victory area on this map is a zone of death. Any creature in a zone of death square that takes damage from a melee attack must make a morale save.

Forest Clif Lair - lots of victory areas one in the middle of a blood rock area. Lots of forest and the waterfall (conceal 11 on ranged attacks only and is difficult terrain).

Dragon Graveyard - large central dual victory area, good los to lots of places, very little difficult terrain.

Spawnscale Nusery - Not mini legal, no start areas, etc.

Monsters listed in adventure that we don't have minis for yet:
Digester
Air Mephit
Dust Mephit
Blackscale Barbarian

How does the Water terrain work? Is it just difficult terrain?

Ok.

I had to take care of the family, and the wife commendeered the PC for the night. Anyhow, I have scans, I'll try sometime tomorrow to get them to where I can get them (links) to here.

I dod not get Dragondown Grotto at Jesters Cap, I found it at Walden Books in Galleria Mall. It was the only one they had that I could find.

Not a lot of hints for Blood War; the random encounter table has
digesters, dire tiger, wyverns, hill giants, owlbears, treat, air mephits and dust mephits. There are Blackscale lizardfolk barbarians, including females, in one of the fixed encounters.

Dudey. I don't believe we have Digestors, or either of the Mephits. The female barbarians may be a little tricky to get ahold of, but I'm sure FB's can proxy.

Love to see the first three tho.

Water terrain, an oxymoron. Anyway, I wonder if this paves the way for some type of a marine/amphibious creature in the future.

It's not an oxymoron if you can hover over water. Imagine that, a Hoverpegasus. That'd be sweet.

It'll be interesting to see the new maps, however. The more options we get, the better.

Dire Tigers and Mephits would certainly be a welcome addition to Blood War. I could probably even use a digester [:D]

Water-feature maps sound quite nice. Pity I won't get my hands on these until next month [:(]

Rob - I e-mailed you scans of the first map.

Let me know if you got them and if they are ok.

I'll work on the next maps tomorrow.

I put all of the scans together and had a semi ledgible map. but I could not get Photobucket to load it (spent 1 hour loading and still not done, silly dial up). [:(]

I shall keep trying.

Got home and had all these image scans from Sirohk of the Dragon Graveyard. At first I thought I'd just keep them for myself and make everyone suffer. Then I decided to be a nice guy for a change. It's a rough joining but it's good enough for people to get the gist.
