GM's Maps #13: Colonial Mansion

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Map making can be time-consuming and sometimes frustrating for GMs, especially GMs with limited time to begin with. In our new 'GM's Maps' range, we will be providing a range of pre-made maps for you to use in your games.

The colonial mansion described in this supplement is a large house belonging to wealthy landowners in the America's or West Indies. The buildings are typically very large and impressive, designed not only to permit the owners and their family to live in comparative luxury but also to project the message of their wealth and power to those who see the building.

Popular in the 17th and 18th centuries, the style is seeing something of a revival in the 21st century as well. Of course, many of the older mansions remain today, in various states of repair.

A colonial mansion makes an ideal venue for a Gothic horror scenario, but don't feel limited. Such mansions may contain a wealth of valuable art or goods that a skilled team of thieves may seek to gather. Some such mansions may still be inhabited by colonies of survivors in a post-apocalyptic setting. They are also ideal for spy missions against the wealthy but crooked owner who may or may not be an agent of a foreign power or world-spanning crime syndicate. Mystery scenarios may also be set in such a building, form a locked room mystery to a murder mystery.

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.
