1. Update the photo for this product, please.
2. In Cities and Towns, a section near/in the appendix discusses each map, its features, and its possible uses. This enhances the utility of each map – significantly. I didn’t find a section like this in the GMG.
3. The Reeve (local magistrate type person – I had to look it up) has no privy, no kitchen, no bedroom? Do you have an overlay for the second, or basement floors?
4. The Farmers Cave and the Village Center are both numbered 01, so I suspect they are on the same “Leaf” (they are the front and back of the same piece of material). The other maps are not labeled that way. So the challenge is not to put two maps on the same page that would need to work with each other or that would force a mid-game flip.
5. I’m being rough, but the materials are Great, the Laminate is Great, durability is great. I just am comparing this to the Scarlet Citadel maps with the “Lair Effect” overlays (possibly your best maps to date), or the super useful maps from Cities and Towns, and I skipped Castle’s and Crowns and I feel I would have been better served with them than these. So really this issue is you won’t let me see the maps before I buy them and that’s not cool.

I have to take a star off because the Map for the Castle Gate has a printing error. In the top left-hand corner is a big red mark. The mark has lines that are off register with the rest of the grid on the map. All the other maps were in excellent condition when they arrived through shipping from Kickstarter.

…note that the maps pictured above are *not* included in this package: the actual maps are much improved!..
…you can see snippets from three of the actual maps on the package cover at the top of this page: these make handsomely-designed playmats…i think the greatest opportunity for improvement would be adding oblique shadows in lieu of the current diffuse shadow effect, to enhance perceived depth of the terrain and structures, coupled with a slightly stronger de/saturation illumination effect at local light sources…
…still, this is a solid map collection and one i’m glad to have at my table…
