A cool mapping idea for your hexcrawl notes.

So I was watching THIS channel today and I saw a very cool way to take notes for your hexcrawl. This is my route for my solo game. This amount of travel and adventure has taken 31 in game days. So Springrise 31st would be the date. I think it really helps to visualise where …

New campaign, new map!

Yesterday we had our session 0 / 1 all combined together. It went well. Of course, one of the hardest things about GMing is giving yourself credit for doing a good job. Always things I would like to have done better. One thing that did go well without a doubt is the world building. We …

Destra expanded fantasy map fun

So i watched a fantastic YouTube series on drawing fantasy maps by WASD20 (you can find the series here). I had been wanting to draw a nicer map for some time. My original map for my campaign was pretty basic to say the least. I had watched a few different mapping tutorials and most were …
