PBE Games - New Hexed Places

I've just (OK, it was Sunday) released a new Hexed Places outdoor location. Surrounded by lowland forests and rounded hills, the waters of Crescent Lake are green and deep and still. The reclusive villagers of Chire scratch out a poor living farming the boggy lands around the lake, reminiscing about better days, when the now abandoned mine once brought wealth to the area. Travelers passing through the area keep careful watch after dark near the lake. Rumor suggests the villagers prey on passersby.

Hexed Places are outdoor locations and encounters based on the classic six-mile hex format and OSR sensibilities. Use these locales as a quick side adventure, to fill out your campaign sandbox, or expand upon them to create a multi-session campaign. Each includes an overview of the region, expanded one-mile per hex maps for players and GMs (PDF and VTT format), encounter and rumor tables, and descriptions of individual locations, encounters, and features within the hex.

Tile of the Week #103

Here is today's Tile of the Week entry. This is another quarter-sized, four-way crossing that brings together several passages of different sizes.

Tile of the Week #102

I've been working on some new Dungeons in Blue Expansion Sets recently, and I decided to put together a few small transitional tiles and release them here. Today's Tile of the Week entry is a basic crossroad linking 10-foot corridors to a larger 20-foot hallway.

PBE Games - New Stuff

I'm breaking the long radio silence, but only briefly, to let you know about a few new PBE Games releases. Someday Soon (TM), things may calm down enough for more regular posting. Until then, this will have to do.

I'll start with three new Dungeons in Blue expansion sets and the discount bundle that includes them all. Collectively they contain 45 geomorphs with natural caves, traditional dungeon rooms and corridors, assorted sewers, water features, lava pools and more.

• Expansion Set M
• Expansion Set N
• Expansion Set O
• Expansion Triple Pack Five

I've also released a new Uncommon Ground texture pack, Alien Ground, which depicts an oddly colored stone surface.

Back to radio silence. Thanks for taking a peek.

Tile of the Week #101

I haven't done a Tile of the Week entry in eons, so I thought it was time to add to the collection. This tile is a standard geomorph with some symmetry. I think it looks like a grand entryway of some sort.

What's Going On?

One of my extremely loyal fans (a.k.a. my gaming buddy Mike), mentioned that it's been almost a month since my last post. I've mostly been tied up with real-life stuff like work, and my free time's been divided between a bunch of random stuff like...

PBE Games - Not So New Things

I'm so behind on all fronts, including PBE Games news. I haven't published much since the last update, The Sand Coast, but I have put out a couple new products since then. Here's a quick rundown on the latest Dungeons in Blue releases:

• Expansion Set J - Sixteen tiles in a variety of sizes
• Expansion Set K - Nine full-sized geomorphs
• Expansion Set L - An even dozen full and half tiles
• Expansion Triple Pack Four - A discount bundle containing sets J, K and L

All the geomorphs in these sets contain a mix of corridor styles and sizes, and several have cross tile features such as water, sewers and lava. I also tried to include a number of edge geomorphs in each of these sets, since even the best dungeon must end, eventually. Here are previews of each of these sets (one-third scale):

Set J

Set K

Set L

See what I mean about quick?
