Our winning theme for June is 1000s of Leagues Under the Sea... so Keith and I are brainstorming the icon set, but we wanted to run one aspect of the project past you all.

We see this set as having a bunch of terrain at the world/kingdom level (undersea mountains, coral, etc.). We also believe we'll include a sea monster lair, underwater shipwreck, and things like that.  But what we're stumped on is which undersea culture(s) to consider. A while back this category was also about undersea technology too.  

So we're looking at a few options and we can likely only fit two of these:

  • Undersea science fiction.
  • Something Atlantean (greco-roman fantasy) - though I could see this being a whole new set.
  • Another underwater culture such as triton, suhuagin, merrow, etc.
  • Current modern underwater technology maybe just slightly in the future.

Whatever we pick will each have a handful of icons in both world/kingdom sets (a city, town, village, etc.).  And each will also likely have about 10 icons each in the both the battlemat and settlement sets.

Keep in mind our very first Patreon icon set that Keith did was "merfolk" so we sort of covered that. If we did triton, suhuagin, merrow, etc., we'd try to find a way that these could complement those, but be different.

Please post if you've got another idea or if you really love one or two of the groups listed above.

Thank you, 

Joe (& Keith)

I'd love Atlantean with an underwater twist on Greco-Roman designs.

Undersea science fiction and underwater technology seems like one set and then fantasy cultures as another. There are some map tokens for fantasy. Is there ANY map token set out there that covers modern/future undersea vehicles? Need a water map for Twilight 2000? An ocean world map in a scifi game? Too bad, there is nothing out there.

Undersea sci-fi, especially if it is steam-punk sci-fi. Otherwise current stuff is nice.

I'd like to see "other underwater cultures" (Suhaugin, Merrow, Tritan, etc.)

My vote is for the other underwater cultures section. Merrow would be fun, and so would mermaids.

You could also do underwater steampunk as another option to choose from

I'm excited about the idea of undersea terrain, and look forward to populating the water areas of my Regional maps with more than shades of blue for depth... And I love the idea of Merrow, Triton, Aboleth, and other undersea races with unique icons and symbols - could have used that in my campaign months ago, but better late than never. What about Giants that are known to lair underwater? And I'm certainly open to undersea city icons for Sea Elves, Merfolk, Sahuagin, etc.
