All righty, a quick and dirty post (just how your mom likes it) for my Dungeon Master Kit series (part 1, part 2, part 3, and part 4). Warning: copious phallic jokes within.I'm running a Castles & Crusades sandbox game in the Haunted Highlands. I love having a big physical map for the players and me to gaze at. There is something frickin' cool about a good fantasy map.
It's a Haunted Highlands hex map made by Darlene, who did the original Greyhawk map. I bought the PDF from the Troll Lords site and had it printed at Staples. (It doesn't seem they have it available at their updated storefront.) Since I can reprint it, I have no problem with us writing on it and making it our own.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCvj_7Khwj9lbU1mDSF1ogQa2qtzLwCfitgNcTnOQMOjnNqiGp9TG50XCrJJTW1pkA97ebZdnfTr9BNgRhaEam7F7HohU6_9OGcXOEcHwiYQPZzxnaGjMfTeanIXXWWHdK6W8ki43FT5LHiHCszCGElvizlR1Xk2ZpZrHCaCfyPsoAZVrCj66HL0XPE3U/w480-h640/Haunted%20Highlands%20by%20Darlene%20(with%20grid)-1.png) |

What my players see. |
Well, it's kind of a pain to cart around without getting mangled, so being the top-grade nerd that I am, I bought a map case for it from Amazon. It was cheap and has been indeed handy. It's expandable too, which is nice.

Ribbed for your pleasure. |

It's a grower, not a shower. |
