I don't know if it will work for you, but you may be able to put your own together using Pyro's amazing mapping tool - link here. (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14877)

Under "Nature" -> "Ground, floor and roof" there are some sand tiles under Grass and Grass2. Then you can build up ruins, etc on top of that...

As an example, here's something I put together in literally 5 minutes.

How i love those games...sniff sniff...why don´t they make some more...they forsaken Dark Sun...

Its cause Wizards of the coast turned d & d into a pure board game and no longer an rpg. Its all bout mini moving now. I myself tried a 4th edition game a few months back...hated it and wont play again. I just use my 3.5 i still got...same for my friends.

They rehashed the darksun world...but its almost nothing like it was when it was first made.

Truly saddens me :(

You´re right friend :( the only thing good is that you can play this new stuff like the old ones eh eh just make your own Dark Sun game ;) i know its not the same thing but with a little imagination and some time you can convert most of the adventures or use them on your campaigns :)

Sure, try the vaults of pandius web site. Click on Atlas. You're looking at HQ user-submitted maps of the "Known World" of Mystara. Try the Emirates of Ylaruam. If you're looking for a blank canvass so to speak, the maps may not be of much help. However, the Ylaruam maps by Thorffin Tait [sp?] do show nice desert terrain with ruins, keeps, castles, trails, roads, etc...

P.S. Hi Blue Haven!!:)

Or see if you can find Wake of the Ravager and The Genies Curse and take screenshots. They are top-down games with a LOT of such imagery. Heck Wake of the Ravager is actually a Dark Sun game.
