Calling all cartographers!
Oh, wait, that boat may have already left port1. But if you’re a lover of maps- in particular, Warhammer Fantasy maps- this has been a very exciting week for you.
That’s because Cubicle 7 Games has released several different bundles of maps on a preorder basis. These bundles come rolled and shipped in a tube, which means they’re superb candidates for framing. As naturalist Peter Steinhart noted, “maps are a way of organizing wonder,” and organized wonder looks pretty damn spiffy hanging on the walls of your study.
The maps are size A1, which is 23.4” wide × 33.1” high. In other words, big enough to make a nice impression but not so big they’re hard to frame or find space to hang them. They are available to preorder between now and May 4th, with an estimated arrival date in July.
The preorder window may ultimately be longer, as buyers have expressed some technical difficulties with buying multiple bundles:
The four different offerings are as follows:
Bundle 1 - USD $29.99
This bundle brings you a map of the Empire as well as a closer look at the Sea of Claws region. The Empire map is the backdrop for The Enemy Within campaign, while the Empire’s Northern coast is highlighted with the Sea of Claws one.
Bundle 2 - USD $44.99
The price of fifteen bucks a map holds here as well, as this bundle boasts a trio of locales. Altdorf, Reikland, and Middenheim are laid out in all their glory.
Age of Sigmar Bundle - USD $29.99
If you prefer the Mortal Realms, there’s a pair of Age of Sigmar offerings here. This bundle offers maps of the Greart Parch and city of Brightspear.
Macharian Sector Map - USD $19.99
Finally, for those who prefer their meanderings to be in the grim, dark future, there’s a Macharian Sector map available for your Imperium Maledictum adventures. Since it’s not in a bundle you’re paying $5 more than the bundled single-map price, but it does look fetching.
Any of these catch your eye? I know I’m looking at the blank spots on my walls a little diferently this week…
Heresy Sighting
One of the replies to Cubicle 7’s maps announmcement on Facebook was a question about the Horus Heresy RPG, the subject of our RPG SITREP last week. Usually, off-topic questions tend to get ignored, but not this one.
It’s not much… but it’s something!
ICYMI
Tabletop Tactics has continued to release videos of their Wrath & Glory sessions, with the latest installment- the third so far- landing this week. “No more investigation. No more shadows. Just four Inquisitorial agents, a corrupted noblewoman, and a manufactorum that's about to become a warzone.”
Then over on the RPG blog Ill Met by Morrslieb, they reviewed the Core Rulebook for Imperium Maledictum. “This game has got a mechanical system that might be my favourite Warhammer RPG system at the moment,” they conclude at a very in-depth look that’s well worth checking out.
Finally, while it’s not an RPG if you’ve been curious about the new Darktide card game, check out this gameplay overview from Rolling Solo.
On a more general note, since landing here I’ve found Substack to be absolutely brimming with terrific game design content. One that jumped out at me this week is What I Learned from my First Freelance Assignment, by Adam Wright.
