Wahat Al-Hasan Oasis - Patrons' Edition
🕑 Added 2020-12-07 08:15:07 +0000 UTCI did quite a bit of research for this map, particularly on Middle Eastern architecture and furnishings. It isn't based on any real place, but it was inspired by the Masjid Wazir Khan in Pakistan and the Buland Darwaza in India.
As I was skimming through the various reference material I used here, I came across something largely unrelated, but ridiculously awesome: zamburaks. This is a small cannon mounted on a camel. Not pulled by a camel, mounted on the camel. It's a camel with a cannon turret on its back and I swear to god it was a real thing that people did. My players are in the middle of a frozen wasteland at the moment and I want to drag them out to a desert just so I can have them get shot at by a camel cannon.
I'll resist the urge, but maybe you don't have to. See the stables in the map there? *Slaps roof* This bad boy can fit six zamburaks in it. I am just saying.
Next up is last month's Cartographic Congress winner, a village for an amphibious people, located on a hill that is submerged during high tide. An inn at the top of the hill is the only structure permanently above water. I've got a lot of ideas churning around for this one and I think it'll end up being pretty interesting. Anyway, let me know what you think of the map! Or zamburaks.
NOTE: Apologies to Roll20 and Foundry users, but the API script I've been using for the walls is bugging out again and I wasn't able to make the wall commands or add this map to the Foundry module. I'm going to set things up to use a different script that should work more smoothly so I can get these things out to you on time in the future. Give me a couple days to get it sorted out and I should have everything taken care of.

You gotta make a comment about smoking camels.

This is perfect as my PCs are heading to a desert in the not too distant future! Camel Canons on standby.
