Cavern Geomorphs (one set finished)

Previous posts here and here.

So, I abandoned the square cavern geomorphs.  My tests just didn't work out.  Over on the DM's Craft board, a person named @onethatwas suggested hexes.

This idea worked better.  I had a few quality control issues making sure that the hexes were exactly the same size, but they'll work fine.

Here are some pics --

The hexes are double-thick cardboard and the walls are a single layer.  The "door" gap is 2" and the hexes are 10" across.  I spray-painted them black and then I drybrushed the edges with grey.  I also used a sponge to highlight the "walls."  In some spots (you can see it on the tile above) I used the sponge to make slime/mold/fungus on the tiles.  Just for visual interest.

At this scale, they will integrate with my Dwarven Forge Game Tiles, so we'll see how that goes.

Cavern Geomorphs

I'm planning to make some 2.5D cavern geomorphs out of cardboard to compliment my 3D Dwarven Forge Dungeon Tiles.

I plan to make each (well, most) geomorphs 4x4" in size with 2" openings to match the DF.

Here's a map of the tiles I plan to make --

Each large box is 4x4" square.  I'm making curvy and straight passages.  Some will have rough hewn sides (maybe all, depending upon creative license).

The large cavernous rooms *should* be expandible if I do them correctly.  I think you can see how that might work.

I'll need about 2.5x3.5 feet of cardboard (no problem there) to make this set.

I'll keep you informed as it progresses!

The Dice Have Arrived!

Here they are!  My DungeonMorph Dice!

I went a little crazy and I got --

• 2x Adventurer,
• 2x Explorer,
• 1x Spelunker sets

I'm planning to frame the colored die "map" documents as references.

With these dice and --

• Matt Finch's "Tome of Adventure Design", 
• Kellri's "Old School Encounters Reference CDD#4", 
• The old Judges Guild Ready Reference Sheets, 
• Michael Curtis's "Dungeon Alphabet", 
• My "Wilderness Alphabet", I should be able to invent any adventure!

Thank you Joe for an excellent product (and project!)

DungeonMorph Dice

You've probably seen this elsewhere, but just in case you missed it -- behold the wonder that is/are RANDOM GEOMORPH DUNGEON DICE!

Joe at Inkwell Ideas has a Kickstarter going.  He's trying to get pledges to get these dice made.

I'm already a supporter.  If you're a gamer, these dice are TOO COOL not to have them in your bag.  If you're an Old School DM, you MUST own these dice -- how could you not?

Go over and check out the Kickstarter.  Pledge if you can.  We've got to get these dice made!

Random Geomorphic Dungeon Map Generator

A person named "Leaf" who owns/runs a site called "dizzydragon.net" just put up a Random Dungeon Generator using Dyson Logos' geomorphs.

He redid all the geomorphs using Inkscape and it's a pretty cool project.

The generator is here.

Thanks for sharing with the community, Leaf!  Much appreciated!

Here's a sample map:
