Tool Recommendation - SCMDraft and Kenny's Game Assets

After seeing it in action, recommending SCMDraft for making maps, especially for hex maps. It’s worked great for LANCER, using my VTT to impose the grid over top of it. The Isometric view may mess with some perspective, and because of that, you don’t have like, 4 directional versions of a lot of things, but if you can work around that limitation, you can get some cool aesthetics for your maps.

Kenny’s Game Assets 1 makes REALLY HELPFUL tokens for maps. I don’t care that styles are clashing, I get to just have clear indicators of important objects on my map now. It was involved in the Bundle for Racial Justice and I believe they made their assets free for a day a few weeks back when Unity was doing a Dumb.

Put them together and you can make

An isometric map using a 1999 version of stylized "realistic" terrain with some more cartoony icons dropped on various points.

Worked well for LANCER!
