In preparation for the release of the Compact & Worn Starship Deck Plans 6×6 Tiles (PDF and pre-print tiles), we are providing this free sampler PDF, which contains a starship tile designed for use with 25-27mm figures using the 1 inch = 5 ft scale, plus a "hangar floor" tile and some cargo crates.
All of the art is hand drawn (mostly pen and paper), with color added using software.
Contents (three pages):
- Cargo Lifter Micro Freighter – interior of a spacecraft – printable 6x6 inch tile. An ideal spacecraft for PCs to escape in. Displayed against the hangar floor pattern, the starship can be trimmed to be placed on any background.
- Hangar Tile – metal/concrete theme generic tile, which can be trimmed into room and corridor shapes as well as being a repeatable tile for create large areas – a landing pads in a spaceport, or a large hangar in a spacestation.
- Cargo pods/crates (standard issue 2:1B Cargo Pods). These crates can be cut up and used as scenery or placed in the cargo clamp of the CLM Freighter. The cargo pods can also double as docking corridors.
The PDF files are in both A4 and U.S.-Letter formats.
The full product, Compact & Worn Starship Deck Plans 6×6 Tiles, will contain this design and eleven other 6×6-inch starship designs with a choice of backgrounds, in color and black/white line art. We are also working on a guide with descriptions for the starships, as if sold by secondhand dealers. It will be available as printable PDFs, and as pre-printed tiles through the DTRPG/RPGNow sites.
The inspiration behind this set is based on the sci-fi RPG referee's need to have a play area which fits within the space of the tabletop, perhaps for a dynamic chase and fire-fight, through a space station or space port, for example. These are small craft which can dock inside of larger vehicles. They will be ideal in representing spacecraft which player's can steal or purchase. Most are battered and "previously used". In games where interstellar craft only 30ft across are unacceptably small, they might still be of use as "ship's boats," shuttles or air-vehicles.
The three-page sampler PDF file is just over 3MB. We recommend printing to paper, photo-paper or card from a home desktop printer; trimming with scissors; perhaps then mounting the tiles on a second layer of card to prevent curling.
- Please note:
- This product is a printable accessory which does not contain graphics files for VTT or mapping programs. The PDF does not use layers for compatibility reasons, so that it can be read and printed from non-Adobe browsers on a variety of devices and platforms.
