Here's the Highlight-19 Pack for Horror on the orient Express.

Notes on the contents of this pack:
This Highlight contains the whole of Chapter 11-In a City of Bells and Towers
Next chapter in the next Chapter
1- Note that this chapter is special in that it is a dream (or rather, a nightmare), so the Dream Zagreb bears no resemblance to Croatia's original Zagreb: in the original Zagreb, the shape of the city is different, there is no fortress, there is no river running through it, as is the case here.
2- The Dream Zagreb is a sort of labyrinth where players will get lost trying to solve a riddle, all the while forgetting the train's departure time. Here, everything is done to make the locations look the same, giving the impression of going round in circles and provoking questions. The maps presented are similar in format and treatment.
3- Each map takes in a part of the city as shown on the city map of the book (near a bridge, at a crossroads, along a dock...). Each map represents a different event. Events involving characters, whether men, women or children, will be represented by tokens to be added.
4- Each map with an event is numbered according to its event:
for example, map 07 represents event Seven-The Purple Fruit.
Map 05-06 is numbered as such because it contains 2 events five-The Snickering Gargoyle and six-The Message in Frost.

SPECIAL FOUNDRY Version for Cthulhu subscribers :
At the end of each chapter (The number of Highlights depends on the size of the chapter) I should be able to deliver the chapter as a Foundry module. That way, you don't have to waste time walling up the maps - they're ready to use.
I explain how to do it just below and in the .zip file.
You must own FoundryVTT and be a Cthulhu Tiers subscriber to download it:
