Notes on the contents of this pack:
This Highlight contains the first part of Chapter 12-Bread or Stone
Next chapter in the next Chapter
1- This chapter may seem short, but it's dense nonetheless, with 18 listed locations to map. In my opinion, this is one of the best chapters of the campaign, with its small-town country atmosphere in the cold, Serbo-Croatian conflict and, of course, a superb well-crafted investigation that ends on a high note.
2- Vinkovci Train Station is an important map, as it reveals the reasons for our unscheduled stop (sabotage), while also putting us in the action with an attempted kidnapping of Jazmina Moric, the daughter of Dr. Dragomir Moric, which launches the investigation. The truck will be available as a token.
Note that the small Vinkovci station is not designed for such large crowds, so people are directed to the courtyard outside, where their papers are checked and they are redirected to the hotels and the Lovacki Dvorac lodge.
Note also that one of the last locations in this chapter, a warehouse, is located right next to the station. So it's not impossible that I'll add it to this map. I haven't yet decided how to proceed.
3- Lovacki Dvorac Hunting Lodge is the residence of our investigators in Vinkovci. While it has no real importance in the investigation, it's a wonderful place to rest, and can be used for a multitude of events of your own.
4- Hotel Lehrner - Jazmina's Room is the residence of Jazmina Moric, perhaps it's here that she'll reveal important details about her father's disappearance.
5- Hovart Brothers Butcher Shop is where the Wolves hide. They can be betrayed by the presence of their truck. Otherwise, the store is a butcher's shop, the Croatian name on the window indicating : Hovart Braca - Mesnira (Hovart Brothers - Butcher Shop)
6- Dr Belenzada's Home is the residence of Dr Belenzada, a close friend of Dr Moric. Having welcomed him into his home, he was also one of the last people to see him alive.
7- If Dr Belenzada isn't at home, he's probably at work, at Opca Bolnica, Vinkovci's hospital, which can also be used if one of the investigators is injured. And if Dr Belenzada isn't at the hospital, he's still elsewhere... but that's for a future Highlight!
Please note that most of these maps can also be used in many other scenarios created by you, or in other official scenarios with a little adaptation.
The FoundryVTT Ready version will be available at the end of the full chapter.
