Courtyard Ruins

DramaScape Fantasy Volume 14

This Product is a 32 x 30 inch, full color floorplan of a Courtyard Ruin.

It comes with Square, Hex and No Ovelays and includes the VTT files for online use.

The Print on Demand version has the Courtyard Ruins Square Overlay on one side and the Castle Ruins top level square overlay on the other, you get two maps in one Print on Demand Product.

The Card version contains twelve, double-sided card tiles. Each over-sized tile is 8”x10” and printed on sturdy 12 point card stock. The UV coating on the tiles keeps them spill resistant, lets you peel transparent tape on and off them without damaging the tile, and allows you to mark the tiles with dry wipe markers then wipe them clean. As you can see in the images below, the card version has the square grid overlay on one side and the Castle Ruins top level map the other side. We recommend getting the Zip File combo as well (or at least download the PDF Preview) so you can see how the tiles all lay out. The full layout map is not included with the printed card pages to reduce their cost to you.

Game Masters need quality maps for their miniatures. DramaScape™ is committed to bringing Game Masters the maps they need. 

The Courtyard Ruins is a single room map of a destroyed courtyard weathered by time. A despotic king once used the courtyard for executions. A raised wooden platform for hanging still stands here. The Courtyard Ruins can be used in conjunction with our Castle Ruins map, creating a large ruined castle and courtyard when combined. 

The Courtyard Ruins map is intended for use in fantasy games. It could also make for a creepy site to visit in Horror games as well as an ancient ruined execution site, likely with ghosts of those angry about their end.

One adventure with the Courtyard Ruins involves a monster king who has taken over the ruined kingdom. He recently found some adventurers trespassing his kingdom and has ordered their execution. Monster criers and heralds for the king proclaim the execution loudly throughout the nearby lands. The group may hear about it that way or from a local lord who wishes to hire the group to save his captured scouts who were investigating the local castle ruins and got into trouble. When the group arrives, they find the scouts strung up on the gallows for a hanging. A monster executioner and a monstrous mob stand in the way of the group saving the scouts. Can they stop the execution in time? Will they save the scouts and help them get vengeance on the monster king in his ruined castle lair? If they can’t save them, do they avenge them by taking on the monster king themselves?

The Picture below, is of the Print on Demand Version.

My first dramascape product. I recently dug out my old Metagames Melee/Wizard stuff and wanted a map to play on that had some visual interest. Incredibly, Dramascape appears to be the only provider of print-and-play maps to provide hex overlays! (O [...]

This atmospheric courtyard has seen better days... and dark use. Or perhaps this is what it looks like AFTER the adventurers have visited! OK, nice wide-open space with lots of battered masonry and fallen pillars to jump over, a well, steps out, [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
