Steve beat me to the punch
I'll be working on this with Rite Publishing, doing the maps and putting together the campaign file. The other guys on this are great, including Devin on the tokens. If you're interested in seeing a professional maptool project being put together from the ground up, and having a say in how it's made and structured, then this is a great project to get involved in.

Wow, congrats! That's cool. Any chance you're gonna WIP anything from it here?
Venus Public Transit, Map Of Ceres, Jack Vance's Ports Of Call & Lurulu ... why do I only have 3 maps here?
Yep, I might bring a WIP over here, but the patrons on the product will get the majority of the WIPs - with the ability to suggest changes and improvements as they go along. It defeats the purpose a little if you sign up as patron and then other people get to see all the WIPs!

I'm doing a Q&A about the project. The first part is up here:
Q&A: The Breaking of Forstor Nagar
Here's a teaser for the project - an in game shot using maptool:

Tokens by Devin Night (of course) and the ship by myself. More to come soon!

Second part of the Q&A is here.
Now here's a larger (and slightly different) version of the screenshot in that Q&A:

I think the players need a bigger boat...
Ships, icebergs and (movable) ballistae by me, background is maptool default ocean and the tokens are by the ever talented Devin Night.

That's pretty sweet, bro.
If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.

I guess now you can see why I was asking all those questions about the best way to show sails on ships. That big one is 4800 pixels wide (including bowsprit and wake) so it's a full scale map all of it's own!

3rd and 4th parts of the Q&A up now.
Here's another screenshot to entertain you all - this time showing off a little of what maptool can do with light, shade and vision:

Making professional game products for maptool is such a cool idea. I hope it sells like hotcakes, Torstan!
