Fun idea.
Request: Can you consider making some of them 3 piece images - one side, the other side, and a middle piece with more bridge and maybe some blurry what's-below graphic, but nothing that says it has to go with one side or the other. That way one could connect the two sides with no middle for a short span, add the middle for a longer span, or even get 2 packs (or print a card yourself) and use two middles to make an extra long bridge.
Also, please, don't make them all 10' wide. There have to be some 20" wide bridges somewhere on Golarion!

Mosaic makes an excellent point. It would be very useful to have some of the bridges be of different widths. That would provide actual different gameplay options. Rather than every bridge being the exact same layout, just with different graphics.

Months later - no word.
Really Paizo, are you listening to Mosaic - a Maps Subscriber?
I keep getting told that Paizo is the company that actually listens to their customers.
Are you?
Let me, also a Maps Subscriber, nearly three months later reinforce this need - we need wide maps along with the chasm-crossing narrow ones.
Okay?
Please make this M-Pack have wide utility.
Okay?

Please show us more/all sample images, good Paizo gals & guys! :-)
In the past i have not bought some map packs because i thought them boring.
Later, i saw one or two map tiles that i really liked and went back to buy the pack that contained them, but not before i saw them elsewhere.
I know it's more work, but it will pay off if a few more people buy it.
Also +1 for a 20 foot/4squares wide bridge.
Thank you!

Can't you just post the same design you put on the back side of the Map Pack package, where it shows all the tiles? They're all conveniently arranged there. Screenshot the last page of the PDF and crop out the rest. I don't care how small resolution they are but I need to get some kind of an overall view of the product. Why can a physical store buyer flip to the backside and see what's contained within, but a digital store buyer can't?

Agree. A little bummed, but I appreciate the insight and you taking the time, Stephen, to say something. Question - Do you ever cruise the boards looking for ideas or suggestions? There are a couple of good threads down in the Paizo Accessories section, including this one with some ideas about "sequel" map packs with interesting features ... and wider paths!!
Thanks again for taking the time to listen/comment. Your maps are one of my favorite Paizo products. Keep up the fantastic art!

Well, thank you. I actually don't do the art. I leave that to the beautiful and talented Jason Engle who is much better and quicker at it than I am. I design the maps, which basically means I make ugly sketch versions of the maps and tell Jason how to render them. Oh, the power! It goes to my head. Draw it like this, artist. Do my bidding! ;)
Every time we plan future maps we do look at the suggestions on the message boards. This, mixed with themes amid presented with other releases, suggestions from folks in other departments, sales from older releases, and other mitigating factors, decides what maps we do and what we do not.
Anyhow, I'm glad you like them. I enjoy designing them.

Hmmm. Sorry folks, there's no wide bridges in the set. I didn't see your desire for them until well after the map was designed (I design these things pretty far in advance). I will sneak in a wide bridge in the very next pack such a thing fits. I'll even make it a stone bridge.
Thank you for responding.
It is great to hear from someone within the process.Due to my own experience in the industry, I understand the lead time factor.
It is the only way that a company can stay in business despite what the average gamer believes.
It is nice though to get some feedback from the powers that be in this format.
Thank you for the declared intention for a wider bridge in the future.
It has great potential utility within Pathfinder and abroad.
And yes, stone would be the desired material. ;^)
