Nice collection of small boats and ships.

Announced! Cover image and description are not final.

Very useful, also good for book 1 of "Curse of the Crimson Throne" and the "Skull and Shackles" Campaign!

I´ll buy this.


When will the "Add to Cart" button become available for this one? I'd like to get this one into my Saved Items so I will remember to order it when the time comes.

Try again! I forgot to poke a thing, and it's been thoroughly poked.


Interesting. How many ships will we be able to make with one pack?


Any Previews?

Updated with final image, description, and sample images.

Not enough sample images!

This looks a lot like previous map packs.

Grand Lodge

I see eighteen tiles.

Thanks for uploading all the sample images!

These look good, i'll probably buy them.

The only thing i'll have to criticize is, that all boats but one are 3 squares broad.
Four squares and it could be used for "Strange Aeons" book 3.

Maybe a little more diversity of broadness in the next set? ;-)

Otherwise this looks solid.

The tiles are only 5 squares wide, so a 4-square boat would make for a very awkward tile. That said, I think 5-inch tiles are a terrible mistake, and makes it much more difficult to tile multiple sets together in an aesthetically pleasing fashion (perpendicular tiles will always look awkward/offset). 6x8 tiles would be far preferable to me in that regard, as connection points to other tiles/sets can therefore always be made in the center of the tile.

Edit: That being said, I do agree with you that more variety in ship widths would be good. It's surprisingly difficult to find a variety of ship tiles, which since I tend to run seafaring portions of my adventures a lot, leads to ships that look far too much alike. I'd also like to see more "full" ships that include not only the top deck, but also interior decks.

The "Sellen Starling" from AP#111 is only 10 squares long (and 4 squares wide), so it would certainly be possible but look awkward, because there would only be water depicted on two sides. ;-)

A lot of people would prefer 6x8 tiles, me included.
It was a bad move in hindsight to make them 5x8, but that won´t be changed now.
The only thing i can imagine is "BIGGER MAP PACKS", like "BIGGER FLIP-MATS".

Have you seen this:

What about belowdecks?!?

Will there be a map pack coming out for that?

Anyone who does nautical adventures knows that way more often than not the items(s)/person(s)/whatever that needs getting/stealing/rescuing/whatever is belowdecks, not just sitting out above board somewhere.

Not for these. Most of the ships are relatively simple with only one deck, or the below desk for these are mostly large cargo areas. That was done on purpose. If you are looking for a large multi-level ship, check out Flip-Mat: Bigger Ship. It has complete map plans for that massive ship.


Thank you.
I will.


What happened to assembled maps inside the pdf?
I love those in the older Map-Packs.

This feature would be extremely useful with this Map-Pack!

Any chance of a revised pdf Stephen?


since when have pathfinder steamships been a thing?!?!?

Ultimate Combat contains all the needed rules to adjudicate steam ships (they'd have an alchemical engine), minus the price of them. If you meant on Golarion, then I don't believe steam ships exist there, but that doesn't mean they don't exist in other settings, so having a map of one is useful for people in said other settings where steam ships do exist.
