Where did you get the pillar cutouts?

These maps are absolutely fantastic and will save me a ton of time for when my group starts them.

Quick question - maybe I missed it, but is there a map for encounter H7 (the slave pits)?

I did not do that room, because it is on the poster map included in the module.

These are great! Too bad I don't play 4e, but I'll definitely be looking at them for inspiration.

Btw, what are the rules/laws for recreating original maps and then showing them here? Is it ok as long as you give the proper credit, or would I for my Red Hand of Doom attempts have to ask the original artist, Mike Schley, for permission too?

[NeonKnight]

I'm not sure. Technically, I suppose I could get in trouble for the maps, but I am not claiming to create them, and am truthfully claiming them to be derivitive works of the original.

Additionally, I am providing them as game aids, and in no way am providing to players an illegal work. The are simply at scale game aids. Nor am I charging for their use (though I do take donations ).

That said, I am sure if you were to reproduce the RED HAND OF DOOM maps, and give credit, you 'should' be OK.

That's more or less along the lines I had thought. I just wanted to be on the safe side before posting any WIP for c&c here. I'll be creating for personal use being a newbie in cartography, but to get any c&c it's hard without uploading.
Thanks for your thoughts on the matter.^^

Oh, i've had those so long now i don't even remember. They served as generic pillars through my two year Masks of Nyarlathotep campaign too. I THINK they're Skeleton Key Games, but i'm not sure.

Thanks Neon, my players are very much loving the maps!

[EvilKobra]

Well, i cut EvilKobra's 7-Pillar map down to half size, but it will work beautifully for the adventure. Thanks!

HOT DAMN! That is one sweet set-up! Love the 3D props!

I don't have photos of our own yet as we keep making little upgrades every couple of weeks... anyhow we're playing on top of a 37" LCD screen (1920x1080 --> 32x18 inches @ 60dpi) connected to a 17" MacBook running MapTool. So far, so good. But the killer is a custom piece of software which analyzes a webcam output and automatically updates the map (incl. fog of war and vision effects) as the players move their miniatures.

another set of great maps, I'll need to refer back to these if I ever run this module.
