Content

Hey there!

Now that the Cruise Ship pack is finally complete I just wanted to publicly announce that the next pack will be taking place at a museum!

Sadly I wasn't able to offer a vote for this content pack but this one originally started as part of a commission and was supposed to be “just” a bonus map, but the concept kept growing and growing - and at this point, it was turning into something with the scope and potential of a full content pack, so I decided to add some more content and publish it as a full content pack for Patrons. But as quite a few people wished for a museum themed pack I am fairly optimistic that this one will come in handy for quite a few of you here!

So I am starting drawing museum related assets and hope that I will be able to cover a variety of themes for different kinds of museums and exhibitions in terms of assets.

But I am also really curious about your ideas and what assets you feel would come really in handy when creating maps for such a setting. Happy if you let me know about it here in the comments or on the a day at Discord Server!

As for the release schedule: I aim to publish the complete content pack at the end of this month and of course will keep you up to date with a little sneak peek along the way with a showcase of assets and sketches for the map(s) (as well as an early access Dungeondraft pack for creative & thorough GMs) as soon I have some more assets that I can show / share :)

I wish you all a wonderful start into this new week!

Greetings from Ana

As well as the museum galleries, you're also going to need conservation areas (if it's a decent sized museum - which I expect, given the usual scale of your maps!) with a delivery bay, and you'll also need administrative offices, a cloakroom (no big bags in the galleries!), a cafeteria, a gift shop ("Exit through the gift shop"), space for special exhibitions. There will also have to be storage for accessions that are not on display, which will either mean an extensive set of back rooms, or more likely a basement with a cargo lift that accesses the conservation areas. Is it going to be an art museum, a history museum, or a natural history museum? Or a combination of all three, if it's the town's only museum? Is it a purpose-built single building, or has it developed over time as an accretion of buildings around the original building, with more modern extensions added to the building the founder set up?

Thank you as always for your great and thorough ideas and insights! And yes, you know me well by now, of course it will have "a decent size" hehe

No problem. I've run several (map-less) fight scenes in museums over the years in my Feng Shui campaign, so I've had reason to think about them several times, and some of those are things I noted were missing from other museum maps. (Spoiler - I've visited quite a lot of musuems over the years - and to top it off, my mother volunteers at a very small local museum where she lives.)

Oh, I hope my sketches won't fail to impress then when I'll be able to share them

Not failed yet! (And every museum is different, anyway.)
