Yeah... I considered a banana for scale, but decided it wasn't a good option. ;)

 

... and that rectangular thing on the left is supposed to be a stone bench.

Lol. Yes. They’re trees.

Legend has it, that some guy named Tolkien popularized that style. Of course, he was better than me at drawing.

Same place I bought this tiny ruler...

several tests

Maybe…? I haven’t explored that particular cave system myself. I acquired the map off a band of adventurers. 😉

Oh, and also… thanks for posting a map of your own. It was getting a bit lonely in here. 😉

[–] roflo1@ttrpg.network 1 points 3 months ago

Thanks!

And yes. When I manage to collect enough dungeon or cave maps, I might try to arrange /place them so that they (sort of) connect into a larger complex.

Lol. Maybe? Or perhaps it’s an abandoned throne room?

Seriously though, micro-maps can be very forgiving but I still didn’t want to risk ruining it by adding more decorations. Even if it is quite empty as it stands.

.. and lots of places for an ambush, right? ;)

Yeah, I created it mostly out of nostalgia...

There used to be a Google+ community with the same purpose. When G+ closed, many groups flocked to all sorts of platforms (all walled gardens, mind you), but many communities also died in the process.

The easiest Traveller version is definitely the one from Mongoose.

Also, you should check out Seth Skorkowsky’s overview videos:

From your last sentence, perhaps a few of Seth Skorkowsky’s videos fit the bill:

But then I have to ask: What do you think is a better player? How does your table work? What kind of games does your group prefer? What do you all appreciate the most from the game?

Some groups are delighted when everyone has a great backstory, while others yawn at it. Some groups enjoy voice acting while some of us don’t bother as long as you stay in character when needed. Some like full immersion and others mostly like to hang around with friends. Some like the sandbox while others wish for a carefully thought out plot. Some like hack n’ slash and others prefer political intrigue and social interactions.

How do you describe a fun, a great session?
