A Better Stolen Lands Map

[Stargrove]

I have found the Stolen Lands maps in Kingmaker somewhat lacking in the detail I want to provide my players.

Features:
- All the white borders and big area labels for the AP (on a layer)
- Each of the hex labels+dots (on individual layers)
- This was done so they could be individually shown to the players so they could keep better track of their progress.
- All the area hex labels & dots are divided up into layer folders.
- Everything is initially hidden from the players but can be revealed as you see fit.
- Hex grid added

2023-06-25: Fixed misspelling of "TOGER LORDS" to "TIGER LORDS"
2024-08-04: Fixed some label placements that were pointed out my Gwaihir Scout

Nice one. Thanks for getting the cartographer's permission, putting together the module and sharing.

[Stargrove]

Thanks Trenloe.

[MaxAstro]

Oh heck yes, this is exactly something I need.

[Muagen]

I'm not at all familiar with the Forge submission process or timelines, but I wanted to check in on this. Is this module still on its way to the Forge?

[Stargrove]

Yes, but I found out I cannot use the map. So I need to put together instructions which will be in my module on where to get it and how to get in loaded after my module is loaded into your campaign. Just have not had the time to get back to it. Sorry for the delay.

[Stargrove]

I apologize for the delay, but I have just uploaded my updated module. I have removed the fancy map but all my borders and labels are still there. I have included step-by-step instructions that show you where to get eh map, resize it, and get it incorporated so you can start playing on the new setup quite quickly. It should be available in a few days.

[Stargrove]

This is now live on the Forge. Link in the first post.

I grabbed this extension a few minutes ago and updated Fantasy Grounds Unity to take it for a test drive. It doesn't appear in the extensions list for my existing Pathfinder 2e Kingmaker campaign.
I did notice that on its Store page, its only Category is Unlisted Product. Is that classification causing it not to be associated with a particular Ruleset?

[MaxAstro]

I'm having the same issue.

[Trenloe]

It's a module, not an extension.

[Muagen]

Uh-oh, everybody!

Here comes Trenloe, with his literacy, and his years of experience with the program and forums.

You've ruined another perfectly moist wallow in my own ignorance.

Thank you, Trenloe! Thanks sooo much.

;)

[MaxAstro]

~facepalm~

Thanks, Trenloe.

[Muagen]

So I wanted to follow up with a little feedback, now that I've had a chance to use this module.
Firstly, it lines up perfectly, and the instructions on how to source the map and properly size it for use with your module are spot-on. Everything went off without a hitch, and any GM running Kingmaker is only making things easier for themselves in the long run.

BUT

Who are the TOGER LORDS?

Who are the TOGER LORDS?
SPOILER:

The Romans!

Ha! :)

[Stargrove]

It is NOT an Extension, it is a Module you have to load after you open you campaign. You load it just like you load any other book for use in a campaign.

[Stargrove]

Yikes. I will get an updated version online ASAP.

[Stargrove]

For some reason, even though I am subscribed to my own thread, I never got any emails about people replying to it. Oh well.

I have updated & uploaded the bad "TOGER LORDS" label to read "TIGER LORDS". I will set it live on the Forge once it gets approved.

[Gwaihir Scout]

This is brilliant, just a few mistakes, easily fixable by moving the labels in layers mode.
RH4 and RH5 are switched; this is a mistake in the book.
NH 1 and 2 are both a hex too far to the east.
LV8 is a hex too far to the SE.
PX1 is a hex to far to the SE.

Your grid doesn't match the original map's grid all the way across. I know how impossible this is to get perfect, but I felt the need to use the gridless version of the map.

[Stargrove]

RH4 and RH5 are switched; this is a mistake in the book. I think you meant RL4 and RL5. There are no "RH" labels. However, Can you provide a reference for this change? Was there an errata issued or something? I have looked back at my downloaded PDFs and redownloaded the PDFs from Paizo in case there were updates, and what I have on the map right now is correct.

I can fix these minor issues, but the grid is almost impossible to align. I think, "It's close enough for horseshoes, hand grenades, and grids in FantasyGrounds."

Yes, RL. I was thinking "Rostland Hinterlands." Here's the reference (https://paizo.com/threads/rzs43oek?Kingmaker-2e#12), as they don't do changes for PDFs without physical reprints. (If you want to stick with the official release, I understand, just raising awareness.)

That's what I figured, just wanted to make sure it wasn't a "forgot to check across the whole huge map" situation.

Thanks again.

[Stargrove]

I found the reference to the update, and it will be available after review by the powers that be.

[Game Master Prime]

Pardon me. How do I remove the white layer to show the actual map as i go. I apologize if this i obvious and I'm just missing it.

The graphics are on layers and initially not shown. Unlock the image, go to the layer menu and then show the graphics you choose. See the "Layers Mode" section here: https://fantasygroundsunity.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/FGCP/pages/996640166/Working+with+Images+as+the+GM
