Your 2-Minute August Update
🕑 Added 2021-08-01 12:39:38 +0000 UTCG'day, and welcome to a new month! July has come and gone in a blinding flash and, even if I feel like I've lost a month, at least we have some art to show for it!
I had a lot of fun with this month's maps. First came my beloved crab, born of the strange whims of inspiration. Next, a seaside arena for him to dwell and do battle. After that, a "remaster" of a very old map to put my new skills to the challenge. Finally, a whole heap of new tokens – and some build-your-own pieces, too! Please enjoy...
- The Colossal Crab
An ageless crab has awoken from its long slumber, and now seems hell-bent on dismantling every ship and vessel in sight. Can it be stopped, or will your party also end up in pieces? - Crab Rock with variants by rootyful
THOOM! The ocean swell crashes into the sea-caves beneath your feet and jets through the blowholes before you, drenching you in a briny shower and dressing you instantaneously in an outfit of seaweed. - Timber Brook with map assets extracted by Frederic Thole (Marleyx)
You follow the narrow trail along the edge of a lively stream. A short distance ahead there is a crossroads, and a clearly-sabotaged footbridge. Suddenly, a rustle. A number of wild-eyed men appear out of the long grass, grinning like foxes and blades glinting... Has this happened before? - New Tokens! July 2021 by Austin and David
Conveniently packaged, pre-colored, ready-to-play versions of the tokens we created in June 2021.
A big thank-you to Rootyful, Frederic, Austin and David for all your help with these colorful packs, and to Hikaru for keeping the whole machine running smoothly. And I feel like we're just warming up! Behind the scenes, our Token Editor and artistic magics continue to develop.
We didn't just make art though, Garm has been tapping away at his keyboard and created two new (bonus and completely free) modular regions for you to drop into your world! Two themes I'm a big fan of myself: a treasure-laden island chain and a deep, dark, dwarven fortress...
- Adventurer’s Coffee Co.
We’re all about immersing you in fantasy worlds with our art and resources, but what if you could also *sip* fantasy from a mug..? - The Kiryanov Archipelago by Garmbreak1
Take your players on an island-hopping adventure in the Kiryanov Archipelago, Garm’s latest ‘modular region’ worldbuilding supplement. - Hig Kalduhr The Dwarven Fortress by Garmbreak1
Hig Kalduhr is a system-neutral dwarven fortress, complete with easy access to a vast underground realm to explore.
I hope you can put some or all of this to good use! It's thanks to you that we can keep making it, and for that we want to offer you our heart-felt thanks. As always, we are aiming to impress you this new month. :)
That's all for now. I've already spent today brainstorming some very festive ideas for August though, and I'm excited to put pen to paper!
Have a good one,
– Ross

Haha, I'm glad that the camouflage worked so well! I *love* giant creatures too and they play a large role in my world also. I'm sure there will be more to come – any requests?

Just used the rainy crab rock map with the giant crab. Loved everyones surprise when they had been standing on the crab the entire time. Such a memorable encounter. Love the giant creatures tokens you have made. The giant turtle/tortoise also plays a big role in our campaign.
