Battlemap - Goodberry Winery - Basement

***Free to use, for non-profit/non-commercial purposes.***

I drew this up for the current D&D game I am running, for a mission concerning a wine merchant and some bandits. The players have been at this location before, and at the time, I drew the map on a Chessex dry erase map sheet... I had plans for them to be able to come back, but they ended up not biting the hook... So I have this map that I haven't used. Haha oh well, that's how it goes, I guess! And besides, I can totally recycle it for future use.

This is the wine cellar that can be accessed from the northern warehouse section of this map: 





***"NO CRITIQUE PLEASE" ***
I never intended to share my battlemaps here, and there's things I would change if I knew I was going to share them online, where countless experts can view and judge... So I am not really looking for critique. But while I am still learning how to illustrate the maps to read better, I felt like I would share them, here. If people like them, I may post more, because I have made a lot of maps, and I plan to make a lot more! Just keep in mind they are free, and were originally meant for just me and my friends to have a "pretty" set piece at our weekly game table. 



***PRINTING METHODS***
Printing a map this size on one sheet requires poster sized prints, which is really expensive. It can run anywhere from $40-$100 or more, in some places. However, if you print them onto several sheets of regular printer paper and tape them together, it's much cheaper, usually only costing a few dollars. here's how I do it: 

1. Download a program called PosteRazor. It's a freeware program that can output a PDF file that separates a larger image into smaller sections that can be printed on regular sized paper. Here's the link: posterazor.sourceforge.net/

2. Upload the map image file into PosteRazor, and choose your settings based on your desired output. You can select the papersize (I choose US Letter size), printer margins, overlapping size (for where individual sheets meet), image size/scale, and image alignment. The last step, once you have the settings how you want them, is to export it into a PDF document, for print. 

3. Take/send your PDF file to your local print shop, and ask them to print each page of the PDF file on your chosen paper size (I use US Letter size). Paper size must be the same as whatever you chose in PosteRazor. 

4. Take the printed sheets home and use a hobby knife and a ruler (or scissors, if that's all you have), and trim off the white borders where the image was not printed, on each sheet. 

5. Tape the trimmed sheets together, where they match on the printed image. 

6. Enjoy your map!
