Biomes of Ice & Dust Expansion Released

You and your traveling companions have been traveling for half of a ten day now. The blistering sun which rides high in the desert sky seems unforgiving. The desert, as you and your group already know by now, is a terrible place to travel. The five of you discuss your regrets and often bicker of the sun and the brightness of it all. The tanned cracked dirt beneath your boots, the rigid brown cliff faces, only off putted by the occasional sight of green cacti. Hopefully the loot will be worth it….

Talespire’s newest update: Biomes of Ice and Dust, brings thirty six new amazing tiles to the table for all of your harsh adventuring. May it be for an unforgiving journey to an ancient pyramid in the heated desert, or a marathon of hiking through a stormy blizzard up a mountain to slaughter an ancient white dragon.

Within talespires latest asset bundle contains tiles for desert, tsundra, and jungle environments. For deserts this asset pack includes eight ground tiles of varying designs and then six props to liven up the surroundings (as much as you can within a desert). The asset pack also includes an entourage of cliff faces and rock piles for desert environments.

The tanned colors of rocks and dirt isn’t the only thing included however, as mentioned early Talespire is preparing you and your players for a harsh winter with eleven assets which are sure to immerse your players within the chilled reality of your game. A variety of dead bushes, snow mounds and snowy cliffs and boulders are included. And lastly but not least, a few misc assets were added in this pack, those being a handful of jungle plants and ferns along with a few rocks and boulders.

BouncyRock once again brings yet another update to Talespire which helps bring players further into an immersive world for which Game Masters and Dungeon Masters can drag their players into for a night of virtual tabletop fun. You’ll adore the snowy aesthetic of this update. We’ve used multiple tiles from this to create a low level one shot involving a white dragon wyrmling. Here’s the link to the TaleSpire slab We’ve created for this one shot using assets from this update, hopefully it brings you inspiration, and if you need to use it for a last second “Oh crap, I forgot to prep!” go right ahead!

Check them out the new assets here.
