Dear Customers,

After a long hiatus and much soul-searching, I have decided to return to my map anvil as The Maphatter and continue the creation of new Meanders RPG Digital Modular Battlemaps.

Although I left the industry as the challenges mounted from AI-created maps which decimated my earnings, I have re-committed to my pledge to get my map range to that epic number of at least 3000 maps by 2026.

I have provided more information about my return at the re-opened GTW webstore.

Kind Regards,
Kris (The Maphatter)

Cool, welcome back!

Don't suppose we'll be seeing new meanders map packs with LoS support?

Hi Trenloe, sorry for the late reply, I locked myself out of FG and my email :/ and my phone wasn't charging so it was all a perfect storm. Thanks very much - I am pleased to be back and have already made over 75 new maps for my upcoming project Prehistoric Scottish Highlands. I'm not as fast as AI, but I'm still fast ;) I look very forward to bringing an explosion of new worlds to the Meanderverse in the future.

I will also be trying to get to grips with the LOS function for FG so I can begin including that moving forward...

Thanks again Trenloe, your comments are much appreciated.

Kind Regards,
Kris (The Maphatter).

Let us know if we can help get you up to speed with LOS. It's pretty straight forward once you get going. Only a few tricks and best practices here and there. Mr. Z has some good YouTube videos on it.

Can you link me to those please LordEntrails? I was working on doing this with Laerun via 'Meanders-Plus', but I've forgotten most of it thanks to my previous academic studies pushing all that out of my head.

Ohh, I have some friends that are interested in everything related to scotland, wales, and Gaelic stuff in general I'll let them know about the project. ;)

Thanks a lot Nylanfs, this is a prehistoric Scottish set which has a broad range of terrain types, tokens for custom builds that includes megalithics like dolmens and henges. It also has interior layouts for the buildings and I am re-teaching myself Line of Sight to include FGU. I'll keep everyone posted.

Great news - I've worked out how to add LoS to Meanders within FGU... this promises a whole new dimension for FG players using Meanders moving forward.

I like wasteland!
Glad you got the LOS figured out. I had been meaning to do that for a while but better than you do it :)

Hello there. Here is the campaign preview page for Prehistoric Scottish Highlands Meanders. This time around I've made just under 150 new Meanders. + If you pledge early you can grab extra maps for Newgrange, Stonehenge and Loch Ness. I'm working on the Meanders Plus versions that have Line-of-Sight for FGU now.

Hello. I'm very close to my goal of 3000 maps that we set out to meet since 2015, ten years ago, and believe this campaign will take us there.

Take a look if you are interested, play Call of Cthulhu or are looking for digital horror maps, props, tokens for your upcoming RPG. Now live on KS. IA!
