Dungeon Delve (Maps of Mystery 109 / 111) - next maps?

[grodog]

It looked like the two Maps of Mystery from Dungeons 109 and 111 linked into a more-than-two-part Dungeon Delve map set, since areas 49 and 50 appear to point off toward another level(s).

Does Paizo have any plans to publish the Deep Caverns and Deep Mines maps, and whatever else may lie beyond them?

The delve was originally intended to be a 3-part map, but then all sorts of nefarious things conspired to throw part three off kilter. As far as I know, Chris West hasn't done up part 3 of the delve yet, but rest assured, it's item #23 that's been gnawing at me on my list of things to do. One of these days... I for one at least hope to see that third part in print!

[grodog]

Thanks for the info James. I was pretty sure I hadn't missed the next installment, but wanted to be sure. I also hope part three (and beyond?) will appear one day!

[Craig Clark]

Yes! These were excellent. I already used them breifly when I needed some maps for a ghoul infested mine. If my group ever decides to go back and explore the remainder (they simply fled from the hordes of undead) that third map could come in handy.

Hey there! I'm glad you guys enjoyed the Dungeon's Delve idea and want more. As James said, it was originally conceived as a three-part map, but in an open-ended way that would allow it to continue, well...for as long as folks were interested in it.

I do have part three mapped out in my head, but haven't created the finished art yet. Time constraints and an abundance of other projects conspired against me, so I just "never got around to it". I, too, want to see it go deeper, though. I had a lot of fun with those. Now that I know there's an interest in seeing more of the Delve, that gives me a greater incentive to put it back on my to-do list.

I've also got an idea for a new one-page map-related feature that I plan to pitch to Dungeon as soon as I get time to put an example together. It's sort of like a Map of Mystery, on crunchy gamer steroids...

That sounds great, Chris, thanks!

Sweet! Sounds like a great idea. Hope to see both of these in Dungeon soon.

[Christopher West]

Well, see...I'm not sure that the guys will believe me when I tell them I can fit a whole adventure with all of the background info, NPCs, traps, monster placement, and basically everything needed to run a single well-balanced adventure onto a single page (maps included), make it look cool, and make it simple to run with minimal preparation. For that matter, I'm not sure that *I* believe me...so before I pitch it to them, I want to have an example in hand. ;-)

Sounds intriguing, and an experiment well-worth seeing :D If Paizo turns you down, please feel free to contact Different Worlds to see if we're interested.
