Tell me all about your DnD campaigns!
@Royal Scribe, have you considered running something online? For example Roll20 or PlayByWeb (shameless plug). I've used both, and they can be good outlets for this kind of creativity. My Roll20 games that haven't been pre-made have mostly used my sci-fi maps. It's gone well overall.

Tell me all about your DnD campaigns!
Hello! I made a new world within the last year. I made a map of the western half of the continent in which they started. I kept the details of the other lands sparse. When the party needs information about other places, I can reference material or make it up to fit their needs. That way, when I make another map, it fits their needs. I love doing it that way. I kept the city names spread out and rather sparse so that I can zoom in CC3 and make smaller maps with a little more detail as they explore. It's gone well.

Game Masters: Preferences for Labeling on Game Maps
@Monsen I was going to type something here, but you said 100% exactly what I do.
I'll add that many commercial modules have 2 maps: 1 with labels and 1 without. One is for the DM and one is for a handout. You might also consider "fog of war." How do you handle what the characters cannot see yet? I have covered the maps with blank paper to hide what's around the corner, and I've also tried printing each small area on different papers so I can tile them together when the party can see an alley, etc.
BTW, Dioramas 3 comes in handy here!

Smokey Hollow, PA
OK, first off: This is excellent. I was immediately intrigued. That's a big part of any map: "Why should I keep looking?" You answered that one!
So, I have to ask this: Which part of PA? The inhabitants of each of the two halves would probably behave very differently in such a setup. It's a fun situation.
Great work!
