RPGaDay2025 - 1 Patron

It's that time of year again, RPGaDay snuck up on me and I should have started a couple of days ago. 

Anyway, better late than never. I'll try to do these every day... maybe a couple of sequential posts over the first couple of days to catch up on the missed days. 

 

#RPGaDay2025 - 1 Patron

My first thought here is the concept of the patrons on Patreon. There seem to be so many creative folks who’ve found their footing there, Especially folks like Dyson Logos (https://www.patreon.com/dysonlogos), who really got the chance to gain a higher profile for himself in the RPG cartography space.

I never got around to joining Patreon, because it became a big thing while I was studying my teaching degree, and I figured the regular pay-cheque as a teacher was a more viable thing than than taking a risk that people might like my stuff. Sometimes, I’m not sure if that was completely the right move, but life moves in mysterious ways.

A working computer and scanner...that means it is time to get back to work on the geomorph sequence. A lot of the discussion in this set of tutorials has been focused around square geomorphs. They're the easiest for most people to wrap their heads around.  But my preferred form of geomorph is based around the hexagon, these tend to produce more organic and interesting shapes. This is true for natural environments, but it's no less true for urban environments. The example set of geomorphs above as a simple two-phase system. One edge type is plain, the other edge type has a road piercing the centre. There could be dozens of combinations and permutations for each of the two phases around the hexagonal edges, but a quick look at the variety of buildings and road shapes shows that there could literally be hundreds of possible options when drawing these map fragments. But you certainly don't need to create hundreds of designs for the system to be effective. Usin...

A Guide to Geomorphs (Part 1)

After numerous requests to get back to map tutorials, it's time to start our new series. This time focusing on the concept of geomorphs, modular map fragments that can be mixed and matched. We'll start with a couple of theoretical tutorials before sinking into a few more practical posts. I'm predicting a dozen or so posts in this sequence, but let's see how long it lasts.
