A WONDERFULLY Useful product!

5/5

If you need to make a customizable city scene, THIS is for you! These can be mixed and matched to make hundreds of different locations. Mix this with the Rooftops Map Pack (Another 5 STAR set) and most of your outdoor urban needs are covered.


Another great urban encounter map

5/5

This is one of many officially licensed Dungeons & Dragons game mats from Gale Force Nine.
This line of products compares to Paizo's "Flip-mats", but there are some differences. GF9's mats are 20" x 30", single-sided, non-glossy (well, not as glossy as the flip-mats), and come rolled in a transparent poster tube. (no folds!!! yay!!). Also, you can only use Wet-Erase markers on these mats. They are printed on thin vinyl (thinner than I expected) but are still pretty sturdy.
This particular map is of an abandoned hammlet, but can easily be used for a small village or slum. The artwork is originally from D&D 4E "Vor Rukoth" module/setting book. Several other maps from GF9 are also from the "Vor Rukoth" product, including "Sanctuary of Fate" and "Red Hall of Vor Rukoth".
I like this map. I can think of many uses for it in future adventures.

This particular map is of a city market place. The artwork is originally from one of the D&D Fantastic Locations products. I love this map, and have used it a few times in game. I would say it has great replay value.
Highly recommended.


Another GREAT set of Dungeon Tiles

5/5

The latest addition to the Dungeon tiles line is pure gold.
The tiles are basically split into two groups, Haunted Manor (with a little bit of outside decor like fences and graves), and underground tombs (filled with webs and wood coffins.)
One side of every tile is part of the "Manor" set, with the flip side of each tile being part of the "Tomb" set.
There seems to be more "large" tiles (8"x8") and fewer smaller tiles, which is a good thing. (Too many little bits and pieces are hard to organize and locate for use, and tend to move around too much during play.)
This is the best product that WOTC is putting out right now for D&D and fantasy RPGs. Amazon had a preorder price of $8.06 which is a steal. But even at "list" price, this set is a great deal.


Very nice mini's for a very nice game. RPG use too!

4/5

I just got these and am pretty happy with them. Most of them definitely can fit into a fantasy setting like D&D or Pathfinder. They are a little on the small side when compared to other prepainted miniatures, but do not look out of place next to my Pathfinder Heroes miniatures or most D&D miniatures.

They definitely will add to the game experience of "Pyramid of Horus" board game.


Fantastic!

5/5

This is by far the most beautiful map pack of them all. If you need any kind of wizard's tower or even a small keep or mansion, you can't go wrong with this one.

There are multiple levels to choose from. You can use just one level or pick and choose several (or even all) depending on your needs.

Take a close look at the sample images. This one is great.

If this one ever gets reprinted with the new dry-erase coating like the newest map packs have, I would definitely buy a second copy.


A Great idea, perfectly executed.

5/5

I LOVE these cards! This is the best deck of cards I've got from Paizo.

Initially I was put off by the fact that the vast majority (if not all) the art work was recycled from various Paizo modules and source books. Now that I have them in hand, I realize that if/when I run those modules, I have an easy way to show off those NPCs. And the variety of faces can be used for any NPCs I create.

This is a wonderful set, full of DM inspiration, and usefull for any past, present or future fantasy RPG.


Not too shabby.

4/5

Another nice Item Card deck from Paizo.

Holy symbols for Erastil & Gorum are very nice. Some of the other items seem to have a jungle or savage twist to them.

The cards have a very "brittle" feel to them, same problem noted with the Enemies Face Cards deck. But, I'll either have these in card pocket pages in a binder or in a rigid card sleeve, so that is not a real problem.

I would say that this deck is good to add variety to an already existing collection of item cards, but is not that good as a stand alone set. It looks like there is only a small few cards that are tied directly to the KINGMAKER AP.


A VERY underrated set.

5/5

I held off on this deck based on the bad reviews, even though I could not see the problem people were talking about on the sample cards.
I'm glad I finally got this one! The art is GREAT and I don't see any "blurry" -ness.
This set is at least as good as any of the others. I can see using many of these items as Drow weapons & armor, but they really could fit as any exotic or stylized equipment.
The sample cards shown do not do this deck justice. Paizo should post several more sample images from this deck and let buyers judge for themselves.
I'm still baffled by the poor reviews.

Also: the Holy Symbols in this set are Cayden Cailean & Calistria.


Great Adventure!

5/5

I just finished reading this adventure. I absolutely loved it! I look foreword to running this one.


Nice, but unneccessary set

4/5

I got this set a few days ago, as well as the DM token set.
The tokens are nice and sturdy. They are thick enough that they are easy to pick up, and have a nice "felt" like material on the back that helps them not slide too easily, and protect your coffee table.
There are three types of unlabeled tokens that you can use for whatever you want to designate them for. One has crossed swords, one has a pair of boots, and one has 3 arrows.
The Horse token is nice. I think I prefer miniatures, but this might come in handy. The invisible character miniature is nice as well.
The wet erasable credit card sized info tracking card has space for hit points, healing surges, etc. Again, nice, but I'm not sure I will use it.
If you have the DM's tokens set, you probably don't NEED this one. But if you like the DM set and want more, this set is more of the same goodies.
I like it and will probably buy the others as they become available.


Great set, but how does it all fit together?

4/5

Another fantastic Map Pack! The church and mausoleum are great!

My only complaint is that it seems like most of this set is single 5x8 locations that don't really go together well to make a nice whole. There are a few tiles that have parts of a fence and gate on them, but they do not fit together in any way that makes sense. There are hints of a path on some tiles, but they also do not connect.

I would have liked to have seen a few more bigger outdoor locations for a more cohesive, static graveyard.


Love this set! A little too dark in places

4/5

I really love this set. Please bring on Part 2!

Highlights are the Entry Hall and the Hedge Maze. The low points would probably be the Wooden Staircase (seems like only half a room?), and the Armor Hall (is that an elevated path overlooking the hall on both sides or a walls with two narrow passages on either side?)

The Attic, Nursery, Cellar, and Reading Room are all beautiful, but too dark.

I do love this set though. More please!!!!!


Pretty good, could have been better.

4/5

I like this set. The Town Gate is nice. The courthouse and watch station will come in handy as well.

My only problem with this set is the Courthouse, Watch Station, and Merchant's Guildhouse all share the same "problem". The have rooms that should not be visible all at once.

The courthouse should have ended at the wall behind the judges seat. We dont need to see the jail cells and judges office. Those could have been seperate 5x8 tiles that could be added if needed during play.

Same with the other two. I would have prefered to see one large location that is all one room, and the seperate, closed off rooms be on seperate tiles. I would have kept them seperate myself, except that the seam between tiles is always mid-room.

Overall a good set with great artwork.


I Like This Set A Lot!

4/5

Curiosity made me buy this set before preview images for all the tiles were up, and I must say that I like this set a lot.

The Old Church is definitely a highlight, as is the Low Market. I even like the Muddy Road! I can place it between the market and the shacks and have a nice little town section.

The art is very good, if a little drab color-wise. Some of the locations may be less useful than others. But one day when I need that Rat-infested Landfill, I'll have it!


My favorite set!

5/5

This is the best Map Pack in my opinion. 5 great, large locations, that look fantastic. Favorites are the Healing Temple & Cultist Warehouse, but they are all great.

You should tape them together at the very least (tape on the backside), and better yet, mount them onto some foam-core board.


Great set! Almost perfect... almost.

4/5

This is a great set of map tiles. I only recently gave the map pack tiles a try, and wow, I love them!
As is, these tiles would be a pain to use during play. They would not stay in place, and they are a little flimsy. However, once they are mounted onto some black foam-core board with a little glue stick... they really shine.
This pack has several great locations. My favorites are the Magic Store (which could double as many other kinds of stores), the Blacksmith Shop, and the Ambush Alley.
There are a few that I'm not too impressed by: Wizards Guild Basement, and Wizards Guild. The later is a strange "plus-sign" shaped building that I cannot imagine what it would look like from the outside, or why anyone would build such a thing. Also this location's tiles have what must have been a printing error that causes them to be overlapped by one inch in order to match up. Not a big deal, but slightly annoying.
Great product overall. 5 Stars, minus 1/2 star for overlap issue, and minus 1/2 star for odd " + " shaped Wizard Guild = 4 Stars.


More Johnathan Roberts goodness!!

5/5

Yet another high quality printable map product by Johnathan Roberts! Comes with and without battle grid, black and white, color, etc.

This one and Ugly Harpy Inn are among my favorites.


A great map for Tree-centric encounters.

4/5

Another great map from Fantastic Locations. Any adventure that has a battle at or near a large tree, or a Fey tree lair of any kind can benefit from this map. Paizo free module "Hollow's Last Hope" has an encounter with a Tatzlwyrm roosted up in a large, ancient tree. If ever I run that module again (or steal that encounter out) for another group, I will definitely use this map.

Now if only Paizo store had Fantastic Maps :"Mire of Lost Souls". That one is really beautiful


Limited use, but great none-the-less.

4/5

I don't see myself using this too often, but I will definitely make an effort to create an encounter centered around crossing this Tree Bridge!


GREAT MAP!

5/5

This one is incredible! I love this entire line of maps. The art is fantastic! I don't use "Map Tools", but I may look into it if it will allow me to customize maps like this.


LOVE IT!

5/5

This map is beautiful! I will be using it in my upcoming Sandpoint/Runelords campaign. Great stuff. Can't wait to print it out.


Nice addition to Tree Bridge

4/5

As I have stated in other reviews of the Fantastic Maps products. I LOVE this artist's style.
This map continues where the "Fantastic Maps: Tree Bridge" leaves off. Very well done, and I can see using it in a few different locations. Reminds me a little of Pathfinder module "Treasure of Chimera Cove" in theme.


Great battlemat!

4/5

I love this artist's style. I cannot wait to print this out and mount it to a foam-core board!


Solid addition to the Flip-Mat line.

5/5

The Bandit Outpost is another solid addition to the Flip-Mat product line.
One side is a nicely rendered walled fort with a stable and some buildings inside. The other is mostly empty grassland with a trail that fades out in the center of the mat.
One cool thing I noticed, that I'm not sure if it was intentional... If you have the mat on the grassy trail side, and you fold the gate part of the fort side over, it looks like the trail leads up to the gate.
I think this is a very usable Flip-Mat. The grassy trail side is good for pretty much any outdoors battle, and the outpost can represent many different things.
Also of note... This flip-mat (outpost side)is featured in the first installment of the Kingmaker adventure path.
