desert encounter maps (3000x2000px), dusk/night versions
Bring your desert adventures to life with this bundle of highly-detailed battle maps, designed for maximum tactical flexibility and immersive storytelling. Each map is VTT-ready, richly detailed, and easy to drop into your campaign—whether you’re running a one-shot ambush, a raid on a fortified camp, or a full arc centered on a desert theme.
Badlands Prey – this arid stretch of badlands sets the stage for tense ambushes or survival encounters. Jagged boulders and scattered dead trees provide natural cover, forcing players to think carefully about line of sight and movement. The animal bones at the center hint at predators nearby—perfect for springing a hidden den of creatures or suggesting that raiders lie in wait. Whether used for a wasteland skirmish, a chase through rough terrain, or a desperate last stand, this map is built to keep players on edge.
Badlands FOB – this forward operating base nestles against high cliffs, limiting avenues of approach and giving defenders a strong positional advantage. Crates, tents, and boulders inside the camp create layered cover, while attackers must rely on sparse rocks to shield their advance across open ground. The included day and night variants let you shift the encounter’s tone—whether it’s a cautious daylight standoff, a surprise raid under starlight, or a stealth mission where shadows determine success. Ideal for staging ambushes, negotiations, or infiltration scenarios in the wasteland.
