Should I remake the iconic Argynvosthold map?
The last 1.5 years have been a wild ride for Beneos Battlemaps.Everything started with my precious little home game and me trying to achieve the same thing we always do - offering my players the best experience possible.Back then, I'd never thought that anyone would be interested in what I do and, in my naivety, I didn't even realize that there was a whole role play industry.Thanks to you and your feedback, I was inspired to plan a profes...

IMPORTANT NEWS: WE ARE CHANGING OUR BILLING METHOD!
For a few months, I have been thinking about and talking to Patreon directly about changing Beneos Battlemaps from "Pay per Pack" to "Pay per Month".

I just explain why this is important to me in this wall of text. Oh, and you can get 24 Beneos Tokens releases for free as wel...
