paizo.com - Battlemaps: Corridors and Hallways Vol. II PDF

This accessory features the amazing rendered 3d maps produced by Ø1 Games. The maps come with 1 inch square grid. Corridors and Hallways Vol.II enhances the features of Corridors and Hallways Vol.I, by adding stairs and doors. You will find 13 maps and, of each map, three versions: full color, grayscale (optimized for B&W printing) and line art. The line art version is intended for very easy-printing. In Corridors and Hallways Vol.II you will find three additions for each map set published in Corridors and Hallways Vol.I and a new four-maps basic set with a 5ft wide mine tunnel.

Be Descriptive

Even if you do not use the battlemaps for combat, their amazing detail will assist you in corridor descriptions. Looking at the map while describing the hallway to the players becomes easier than read plain text. You could look at the preview map of the Hallway of the Statues and say:

"As you walk down the red-lighted hallway, you can see many statues looking at you; their grim eyes seems to follow every single step you make. The floor is made of huge red marble slabs and reflects the light of the torchlights on the walls..."

Build Your Own Dungeon

You can assemble a dungeon using the battlemaps, connecting them with dark hallways and dangerous corridors and finally fill them with hideous critters of your choice. The players will enjoy the battle in your custom built dungeon. More of these supplements exist, and in no time you will be able to build any dungeon you desire.

In the by-now familiar presentation of beautifully-drawn maps - colour, greyscale and line drawing -this selection is based around the 'linking bits' to enable you to build interestingly-shaped complexes for your players to explore... the sort of places where they will be continually guessing what will be waiting for them around the next corner!

The collection consists of a group of mine tunnels: T, L, X and I sections; additions to the Hallway of the Pillars in Corridors and Hallways Vol.1 in the shape of stairs up and down, and a corridor-end with double doors; and the same - stairs up and down and a corridor-end - for the Dungeon and Hall of the Statues as well.

All will link up with all the existing floorplans from 0one Games, and have a grid suitable for miniature use cunningly incorporated into the design. The colour versions are true works of art, beautifully-drawn and with atmospheric lighting effects, scattered items, etc. The greyscale versions - useful if you don't happen to have access to a colour printer - are the same; while the line-art versions are particularly suitable for the DM who wants to add his own items, labels, etc., to his maps.

Again, even if you don't use miniatures in your games, they are still useful as a visual aid to present to your players to show them precisely what's where... or even as a simulus for your own imagination while you are planning adventures.

This is a series well-worth collecting if you have any interest in the architecture of the places your characters are going to visit: recommended!
