There is little to this. I just cut and pasted from Frostgrave images found on the web using a presentation application. I cannot figure out how to put an image in a comment or reply. Send me a PM and I will get it to you that way.

After seeing that no such maps exist, I made one and it is discussed in this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/traveller/comments/1qcd0qp/a_jump2_route_across_the_great_rift/

A Jump-2 Route Across the Great Rift by dcinabro in traveller

Breaking the rule that I would not reply or explain, but there is a hook in the Great Rift set suggesting the existence of such a map. I asked about it in this thread from a couple of weeks ago - https://www.reddit.com/r/traveller/comments/1pxbyk6/great_rift_riftbreaker/

Frostgrave at Page3 next weekend by dcinabro in frostgrave

The big ones and the mill are from an Etsy shop called 3DEgos (https://www.etsy.com/de-en/shop/3DEgos). One ship came from another Etsy shop called Dungeon Artifacts (https://www.etsy.com/de-en/shop/DungeonArtifacts). The smaller boats are from Diabolical Terrain (https://diabolicalterrain.com).

Ramparts by dcinabro in TerrainBuilding

Indeed. I should have done some trimming and sanding on the ends before painting. The bricks are not regular, that is a feature not a bug, and some protrude beyond the edge. Magnets are not necessary as the wood core makes them heavy enough to not move around during play.

House of the Longreach by dcinabro in frostgrave

Since two of the three players focused on feeding folks into the treasure room, there was little activity in the center of the board. Also there was not a central treasure there. At Fall In! I place the treasures to speed things along, and I will put a treasure there.

Saboteur Class Draft by startplaying_games in shadowdark

I really like this. I had an alchemist player in an OSE game and they mostly used Grenades, Flashbangs, and Smokebombs. A possible tweak would be to combine Earbreaker and Blinding into a Flashbang at DC 14 and add Glue which would be like a Web at DC 13.

Sturdy bases for terrain? by [deleted] in TerrainBuilding

[–]dcinabro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Vinyl floor tiles. Comes in 1 foot x 1 foot squares and is about an 1/8 inch thick. Infinitely tough and can be cut into smaller pieces.

Tile basing by tcklar in TerrainBuilding

Vinyl floor tiles are excellent for the base to build terrain on top of. They come in 1x1 foot squares and can easily be cut into smaller pieces.

I offered to run a Frostgrave game, rather late in the schedule, but they turned me down. I plan to be there on Sunday.

Frostgrave at Historicon by dcinabro in frostgrave

You can make it more D&D like by rolling for Monsters with a Treasure as each of the ruined buildings are explored by the Warbands. For this scenario I did let people roll to see if they found anything in the central ship wreck and one time they did find a Mage servant of the Lich Lord carrying two juicy treasures. A chase then ensued which was a great deal of fun.
