Illusionary Press has joined forces with Jonathan Roberts of Fantastic Maps to produce Map Packs based on the Illfrost Campaign Setting. Each Fantastic Maps: Illfrost Retribution map pack contains:

PDFs of the maps in "Retribution" at 1 square = 1 inch scale, for DMs printing on a home printer.
A high resolution JPG for use in virtual tabletops.
A pre-built MapTool file with vision and light set up.

The Illfrost campaign setting is a vast world whose frozen reaches will truly test your players as they face new monsters, struggle to survive in an unforgiving climate, and face a dread so malevolent that it will leave them shivering in their fur-lined boots and eagerly coming back for more... if they survive!

The Illfrost Adventure Path is a 4th Edition compatible Adventure Path from Illusionary Press that will have your players chilled to the bone, not only by its brutal environment, but also by its perilous challenges and unimaginable horrors.

The Illfrost line of products is based in the world of Illfrost created by Don Pritchett, but easily adaptable to your own campaign setting.

3.5 stars -solid, very cheap, but also evry specific map

Endzeitgeist — Sep 10, 2012, 03:24 pm

This installment of acclaimed cartographer Jonathan Robert's Fantastic Maps-line is 17 pages long, 1 page front cover, 1 page on how to use the map, 2 pages of advertisement, leaving us with13 pages of maps, so let's check this out!

This map depicts a wintry forest (with no snow on the trees) south of the complex as well as an entry to a cave, where a well, two torches, crates and 2 straw mats await adventurers/guards who fled from the cold as well as a further way into a complex. The map provides grids as well and the module comes with 6 pages of a full-color blown-up version of the map for miniatures as well as a grey-sclae version.
Beyond the maps in letter-pack format, we also get a A4-version of the pdf for Europeans like yours truly, as well as maptool files and a high-res jpeg, but no grid-less version of it.

Conclusion:
The map per se is beautiful, as we've come to expect from Jonathan Roberts and the pdf is rather cheap - however, we do lack a grid-less version of the map, which is a minor bummer for me. The pdf-versions of the maps are fully bookmarked. The cave probably has limited use for most people, making an icy sentry-post for a dungeon or similar complex. If you're looking for something like that that's not too complex, the pack delivers. If not, this might not be for you. All in all, a solid addition to the series. My final verdict will be 3.5 stars, rounded up to 3 stars for the purpose of this platform.

Endzeitgeist out.
