Japanese Castle (Unfurnished)
Slab



Taking a break from the Greco-Roman stuff to add some samurai flair to Tales Tavern! This is a tough one and took a bit of creative thinking. Honestly, I’m hoping they’ll release an Asian/Eastern set. This is an unfurnished one. Once I figure out the room layouts and appropriate furniture I’ll drop a furnished one. Hopefully, this sparks some creativity!
This is a good start, 🙂
I’ve been asking for an Asian asset set for years, I finally had to make my own stuff.
One day I might finish the big castle and post it, but having to make everything kinda burnt me out on big maps.
I feel that. I started on Agathon about a year ago. I rebuilt the thing like 4 or 5 times! It’s the terrain generation that kills me. I know there are tools but they never come out without a lot of work and since I gotta spend the time anyway I might as well just do it! Plus a lot of generators just overload the map with excess tiles. Baldrax has some cool stuff but I feel like I need an engineering degree just to download and unpack all the files. I’m pretty boneheaded in the software department though lol. Life would be a lot simpler if I had a bunch of terrain sets built for dropping in towns and villages. I know there are encounter maps that might work but again I gotta do so much work I might as well make it from scratch. Now I’m like, shit, will it be another year before I drop a map? When am I actually going to play some DnD with this stuff? Damn, my perfectionism…
There is the terrain tool here on TalesTavern in the tools section.
But I know what you mean about Baldrax’s tools – he is brilliant and my brain always hurts after I talk to him (he streams too).
He’s super nice though, so he’s got a few tutorial videos that are supposed to help a bit. I’m still trying to work myself up to using his tool to make a Stargate ring.
