A Message for Streamers. Also, I'm drawing this.
🕑 Added 2021-09-02 12:19:53 +0000 UTCIf you stream your game, YOU HEREBY HAVE MY PERMISSION to use my maps in your streams. I'd have said this earlier, but I wasn't aware until recently that a lot of people think it's illegal or unethical to do so without permission. In any case, I want to make sure any streamers out there know where I stand on it.
This does not come with conditions. You can use my maps whether you are making money from your stream or not. You can use them whether you are a small streamer, a large streamer, or literally Matt Mercer. You do not have to be a patron, nor do you have to interrupt your game to say, "This map has been brought to you by Milby's Maps," or anything like that. Just use them and have fun. I'm good with it.
Okay, so the picture above is a place in the Netherlands called Fort Bourtange. It was built by Willem van Oranje during the Eighty Years' War, in which the Low Countries fought for their independence from the Spanish Empire. I've been thinking about drawing a map of this place for at least a year or two, but I recently decided to make it the next historical map. I'm not sure when I'll get started, but I'm hoping to find time for it by the end of the year.
Anyway, that's about it. I'm gonna get back to drawing the pirate fortress. If you've got any thoughts on any of this, let me know!

Milby's Maps
Hey, thanks a lot! I'm gonna try to get started on it around the end of the month if I can. Hopefully the Druid-Wizard Queen can stay in the winter palace until then, haha.

I was planning on using the star fortress concept for a river base, as the summer palace of the Druid-Wizard Queen. I joined your Patreon under the humble expectations “stealing is faster”.

49 sessions! That's awesome, they must've found their way into everything! This won't be as big as Mont-St-Michel, but it'll be pretty large. I'll also be making an unfurnished version if you want to use it as a village.

My players are departing Mt St Michael on a spaceship this Sunday after a 49 sessions of adventure there, almost a year of weekly games spent dealing with court subterfuge, multiple factions accusing each other of heresy, assassins, a rogue brain in a jar, and finally a daemon incursion. You have no idea how excited I am that another citadel fort map is somewhere on the horizon!
