Shareholder Report: 03/2023 [Recap, Poll, Call For Ideas]
🕑 Added 2023-03-09 16:09:26 +0000 UTC
Hi everyone,
It's time for another Shareholder Report. This post has a quick recap of last month's releases and a poll about the next mission. Also, I'm looking for some generic cyberpunk map ideas.
February Releases
In February there were three new maps released, and on top of that a Foundry VTT module and some 3D printable vehicle models.
- Sub-orbital Shuttle [352]
- "Neural Absolution" - Cathedral Club [351]
- Warehouse Hideout [349]
March Maps
For March I have planned the following releases:
- Bloodsports Arena - an octagonal cage for fights between cybernetically augmented fighters or synthetic or replicant gladiators.
- Megacorp Archive Hall - A huge brutalist concrete hall with stacks of data storage and raw computing power.
- Megacorp Executive Meeting Room - A serene room with stone slabs surrounded by water and adaptive lighting.
The Next Mission
Next month I want to explore off-world locations or extreme environments like the bottom of the ocean or arctic wastes. This will have a more hard sci-fi approach, but I'll try to add possibilities to use the maps in a more generic cyberpunk context as well.
I did not include the orbital elevator theme as one of the environments even that has received some popularity in previous polls. However, I plan to delve deeper into that theme later to connect it with this one.
The poll has a few options for extreme environments; some of these are something you might find on Earth, and some are clearly extraterrestrial in nature.
- Deep Sea Station - A corporate station at the bottom of the sea. A small landing platform with a submarine hangar is floating above the station. The scientists have made a breakthrough, and your team is sent to pick up the physical samples.
- Arctic Arcology - A small research arcology located in a frozen wasteland. Could there be something under the ice the corporate archeologists are excavating and studying?
- Moon Base - A small resource extraction station built into a crater on Moon. Someone is sabotaging the helium extraction process, and your team needs to find out who.
- Martian Maglev - Your team is sent to Mars to retrieve sensitive data from a rival company agent and a suspected terrorist. The best opportunity to do this is on the Olympos Express - a maglev traveling between two Martian colonies at 300 mph.
- Belter Station - A small space habitat built inside an asteroid on the Asteroid Belt. Your team is sent on a diplomatic mission to support in negotiations with the local belter miners and water haulers. Everyone does not approve of the Company's plans, and we expect possible disruptions. That's why we are sending you.
- Pandora Outpost - A fortified corporate survey and research outpost on an extra-solar jungle colony. The world is a small moon, Pandora, orbiting a large gas giant, and it has native extraterrestrial life. The lifeforms on the planet are also extremely hostile and dangerous. The researchers have made an interesting find that might prove a valuable asset for humankind - and the company.
Vote for your favorite by the end of the month.
Call for Ideas
Do you have a specific idea for a cyberpunk map? Is there a topic or theme you have not found proper maps for? What kind of situations in your games usually require a battlemap?
Submit your ideas for future maps in the comments below, and I'll store the most popular suggestions in my map backlog.
That's all for now.
Thank you for your support!

I will start with general marine/aquatic assets and underwater base maps. But I would certainly like to visit this theme again later to make some futuristic boat and submarine deckplans.

Sea related stuff would be really neat. Considering literally everything out there right now is either conventional sailing vessels, airships, and spaceships, it would be really neat to see modern/cyberpunk docking facilities along with submarines and more high tech seacraft.
Great ideas. Thank you!

Cyberpunk RED has night and midnight markets. Secret places where sellers roll up in heavy vehicles and hawk (or hock) their wares. A seedy backalley with spots for food stalls, vans full of precious cargo, and pop-up ripper doc stations might be useful?
