As we march toward... March, it is time for another preview!  This time we have the classic world style icons Keith has developed for coasts. These are roughly 1-to-1 to the isometric world icons, except for the many coastline icons--which don't really fit here.

Two more previews to go, and then the actual icons get posted on the last day of the month.

Thank you!

My only sadness is that it looks like the pirate town is a boat town, and that leaves us with no actual shore locatable 'pirate cove/city/town/settlement' icon unless I'm forgetting something. ...Also the lack of a Kraken or Island Whale/Turtle, but that's really just alternate sea monsters.

Yeah, after 4 full years of doing these sets... a lot of times we've done related sets that have the icons you're asking about. November of 2020 was Pirates and ports, so you'll see several of those there. February of 2021 was "Weird Natural" and that has a turtle city. We've got all the past sets up on DriveThruRPG. Nov 2020 Pirates & Ports (has classic world, isometric world, settlement, & battlemat): https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/340963/Worldographer-Pirates--Ports-Battlemat-Settlement-and-World-Kingdom-Map-Icons Or get just the classic world style, but all of 2020's icons in that style: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/379782/Worldographer-2020-Classic-World-Kingdom-Map-PNG-Icons And if you were pledging at that time, let me know and I'll send them to you.

The issue is, the towns and settlements from the Pirates and Ports pack are also water-floating towns. You can check the pictures for either of the packs you linked, they both show the pirate towns on them which look like they've been built on top of a wooden dock upon the water. So if you put them on land it might just be me, but it really doesn't look right. Especially if the land hex they are on has water 'above' the hex, instead of below it. Or to the sides.

Sorry I overlooked this post... I think the idea is how should a port city/town icon change vs. a regular one? I'm not sure what to do. Yeah, would could take the basic town/city icons and add a pirate flag, but is a good use of one of our icon slots? If you've got a better idea I truly am open to it.
