Hi everyone,
Here's the Highlight-07 Pack for Horror on the orient Express.
Our investigators are plunged into a strange sleep, dreaming...
In a fantasy world, they board an enchanted train, even more luxurious than the Orient Express: the Dreamlands Express.
The train is made up of huge, tentacled creatures. These beasts are from an alien Dreamlands.
They move so smoothly on their stumpy legs that not even the slightest vibration jolts their passengers. The “front” and “back” of these creatures is arbitrary, they can move in any direction with equal ease and indeed can clamber straight up a cliff face if required (in this case the “carriages” all move smoothly to the “top” of the beast, without shaking so much as a drop out of the dreamers’ wine glasses)


This pack contains the first part of chapter 5-The Dreamlands Express

[Spoiler Alert: From now on, certain passages of my explanations or certain visuals may be spoilers!]

Here's the precise list, with the different sizes:
01-DREAMLANDS EXPRESS-Engine - (4200 x 7140px) - [140x140px]

Notes on the contents of this pack:
This Highlight contains the whole train for chapter 5-The Dreamlands Express
The cities crossed by the Dreamlands Express will be in the next Highlight!

1-This chapter is sometimes ignored by Keepers because it's so different from the rest of the campaign.
Yet the plot is excellent and extravagant. And it's hard to imagine a more exotic setting!
It's also for this kind of unexpected shift that the campaign is strong!
In short, I highly recommend this chapter, and I've gone to great lengths to create baroque, colorful spaces that are sure to leave a lasting impression on your players!

2-This pack contains the whole train! I planned other variations, but this was already a huge pack. There are 9 cars, a stomach, and a roof. As described in the book.

3-Some rooms have been simplified for ease of use (such as the bath house, which has only one room). But overall, we're very close to Chaosium's description.

The FoundryVTT Ready version will be available at the end of the full chapter.

I never knew there was a dreamlands themed chapter, the maps are looking very good. Love that cat compartment! Thanks for your awesome work again!

Thank you Flopjick! Yes, I recommend this scenario, very different from the rest, but with lots of fun little events. Plus the possibility of diluting it between the other chapters when the PCs go to sleep.
