Suggestions for new map packs

[Enpeze]

I am really a fan of the flip mats and the map packs. But sometimes they become a little bit repetitve. For example we have now several flip mats for forest, forest with river, light forest, ancient forest etc.

but how about those who play the Serpent Skull or skull & shackles AP or other modules in the mwangi area? Where are the

-jungle flip mats (AFAIK we only have a map pack but not a single flipmat for jungle)

-swamp (we have one flip mat titled as "swamp" but while it has good artwork, I fear its not very "swampy". So how about are really cool swamp mat, with mangrovia trees, dampy wet areas and a small river through it, a map where you can see and "feel" the fog ascending up from the ground?

I would like to suggest the following additonal map packs or flip mats

-desert (up to now we have just one desert flip mat and it has on both sides structures. How about a zero-structure flip mat only with plain dunes and as add-on a map pack some overlays with desert motives? (like pyramides, osirian statues etc.)

-under sea - a flip mat with portrays underwater with reefs, fish etc. And as add-on a corresponding map pack with underwater wracks and underwater sahuagin houses?

-a flip mat with an abyssal area. Like the formidable Hellscape map pack but a whole flip mat

Untill now we have half a dozen maps with markets, shops etc. Everything is fine with it, but they are hardly usable in non-medieval environments like Garund or Jade Empire. So I suggest a flip mats with

-oriental city, market and housing (and as add-on an overlay with oriental shops and structures)

-far east/Jade empire city

Great Ideas! Would love to see all these especially swamp and jungle and more non-medieval city's!

Also a FAN OF THE FLIP MAPS AND MAP PACKS! What I would like to see see some Darklands style Maps! Cavern areas- with stalagmites and stalatites, Drow- city or outpost area, Dwarf area (same as before) Darkland- passageways (kind of like the Mine tunnels, Map Pack) How about some areas with town or city ruins (different level building, Flip Map for the ruins, Map Pack for the upper areas) Just my thoughts on some ideas I would like to possibly see in the future sets. Keep up the GREAT WORKS GUYS!

Regional map packs for areas already on the main maps would be nice. Real 'street level' maps of the cities, buildings and locations of interest for use of figures...the 5' squares. I know some exist and are normally produced for the modules, but I don't use many modules.
I'd like the maps though; especially for the places not mapped yet.

My first couple suggestions would be an underwater one, and something for a rooftop chase, or maybe a battle high in a clock tower or in the upper levels of a city like Sharn... I guess the combination of an urban setting and lots of stuff for PCs to fall off of appeals to me.

Having just written fiction for Irrisen and the Reign of Winter AP--and knowing nothing of Paizo plans apart from the fiction end--I am really hoping we get some of the following:

1. Flip map for snowy woodland and snowy meadow. Including snowy hazards like a frozen stream running through both.

2. Flip map for a frozen lake and a mostly thawed lake with some ice in it, with some portions of the shore.

3. Map pack of wintry stuff to put down on the previous flip mats, including a hut which could be Baba Yaga's dancing one (hard to tell if there are feet underneath it), fences made out of bones, snowbanks, snowball fortresses for ice goblins, sleighs, reindeer, ice skiffs, fishing holes to add to the lake, an igloo, and I'm not sure what all else, but that would certainly fill up a map pack.

I'd like some underground cities too, and cities in giant trees. Hobbit hole type structures as well.

Generally I like all the terrain suggestions here and for flip maps, agree it would be nice to have not entirely blank maps, but ones that feature terrain with only a few details, so that it is easy to add your own. Flip maps too often are either entirely featureless, so you have to do ALL the work, or SO detailed that it is impossible to use them except in extremely specific circumstances (unless you redraw half the map with heavy black marker, which kind of eliminates the point of getting flip maps with artwork on them).

Then the map packs could have terrain details you could use easily in conjunction with the terrain maps (groves of trees, hillocks, hedgerows, trenches, cottages, houses, gardens, barns, corpses, traps, etc. etc. etc.)

I would like to see some open wo0dland and pasture maps. Or some maps that are range combat friendly.
What good is having a longbow if all fights start at less then 30 feet.
