One of the most useful flipmaps they've made, I've used this map in a number of games.
There's no reason they shouldn't just make another print run of this one, I think they're losing money by not doing it. I think the pirate ship and this map can co-exist peacefully. Tis boat is more of a trading vessel whereas the pirate ship is made for combat.
This is a good map. The cartography and illustration are not nearly as good as the new pirate ship flip-map, but I have used this time and again. I use the cannons as arcane weapons.
I would love to see a flip-map take on an airship! Wouldn't mind an arcane train as well! Hint, hint Paizo!
In regards to AvatarArt's comment about beds, they used hammocks, beds or bunks were only available to captains & officers, bunks for crew didn't appear until steel vessels for the most part. But true the cannons aren't for all, static-cling type layovers would have been a cool touch for those who need them
If you buy this in hope of printing a copy across multiple 8.5x11 sheets to assemble your own map, you will be disappointed.
The PDF is two giant pages, so the only way you will be able to do it is with an app specifically designed to split large PDFs into printable chunks (and which will do so on protected PDFs- good luck), or with a large format printer/plotter.
It's still useful for VTT games, but is not a very well thought out product for most people. Come on, Paizo, what gives?
