Dungeon Craft 2-D Battle Map Terrain Review! [Sponsored]

[@thewargodaries]

Once they are cut, you could keep them in a 1-gallon zip-top type freezer bag.

[@tompadfoot3065]

I remember getting the Mapfolio 3D years and years ago and being delighted by how much fun it was to cut out/build the little papercraft buildings and such. But, due to them being fragile and storage issues, I've lost most of them over the years to damage and apartment moves. having something like this would be a blessing to my DMing!

[@F2t0ny]

That looks pretty handy! I wouldn't mind more reviews I useful items for DMs.

[@roonbare2769]

I'd love to see more reviews of axe and shield stuff too.

[@F2t0ny]

I want that initiative tracker. I'm always skipping players by accident.

[@Shad0wchasers1]

I like the laminated pages, but I'm a little concerned that cutting them out means the edges will be vulnerable to moisture damage, marker build-up, fraying, etc. I'd like to see a one-year-later review of a product like this, where someone shows how it stands the test of time.

[@millsy7131]

In case you're still curious about them I have every set released so far and have used them for about 2 years. They're fantastic and don't ware out. The colors are still vibrant and none of the cut edges are frayed.

[@Shad0wchasers1]

@@millsy7131 nice! Thanks for chiming in!

Thanks for the review! Contact us if you want to review some of our other books.

I just got mine today. Can’t wait to start cutting it up and playing with it!

[@MrJustintreat]

My friend got this at comic con in Seattle this year. Its amazing. Withmore than $30

[@paulhufford183]

I just bought this and for a beginner dm, it's perfect. My players can easily visualize the terrain I'm trying to describe.

[@WalterRiggs]

Backed. Never know when you’ll need any of this stuff

[@WilliamSlayer]

Already have some 2-D pieces, and these will go along with them well. Thanks for bringing this Kickstarter to our attention! (Backed)

[@westerncivilization]

Totally cool with seeing these kind of sponsored vids. Keep them coming.

[@DM_Kat]

Can you photocopy the pages instead of cutting up the book?

[@WilliamSlayer]

Once you have the book in your hands... absolutely!

[@Javawocky92]

I put a high res scan of these into my computer and use photoshop to create maps and the print out on a plotter.

[@nealpeterson9714]

Looks good and I like the concept. One flaw that I see is that by have the second level of the boat (for example) on the flip side of the top is that if one party member goes below, then I will need to remove everything from the top so I can flip it over, and repeat as the scene goes from one to the other.

[@georgetse83]

In that case I guess you buy the book twice. It crossed my mind as well..

[@Phoenix_On_Fire]

Photo copy it.

[@roonbare2769]

Such a great idea, gets the job done portable for a great price. My only complaint.... Why not 20000 pieces!

[@Sane-Revelation]

There is 2000 if you also pick up their Hell and Highwater book with another 1000 pieces!

[@roonbare2769]

Great review, definitely convinced me that this is worth purchasing...thanks, guys!!

[@andyh2783]

Looks like a really cool thing for DMs that dont have an army of minis or rooms full of Dwarven Forge like Monty(yes I'm super jelly). Lol

[@jacobdahlgren5292]

So what helps you guys out more, buying a shirt or subbing to your guy's Patreon?

[@DungeonDudes]

Whichever you choose is so appreciated. If you totally love one of our shirt designs, get one! Otherwise, our Patron only Discord is a fun place to chat with us and our community.

[@Peoples_Republic_of_Cotati]

are these wet/dry erase safe? I expect the pens will still be out in force for the bits which aren't in these books.

[@kevinpatrickcarey3741]

I was afraid that it was setup if you cut one side it ruins the other but its nice to hear its lined up to be double sides!

[@leatherguru8904]

I like the concept however, I've been burnt by kickstarter's before example dungeon dressing dice. I've been waiting for these dice for 2 years, I could have made the dice myself in 2 years. Seems to me if people would just make the stuff and sell it we'd all be better off. Not trying to dog the product but I don't want to wait 9 months to 2 years

[@roonbare2769]

I get you.... But it's clear the product is already completely designed and just needs mass production. It's a book so, it just needs sent out to the printing company.... Not really rocket science.

[@leatherguru8904]

@@roonbare2769 yeah making dice for Dungeons & Dragons isn't rocket science either and I'm still waiting for Incognito games to send the damn things out

[@anthonynorman7545]

If they had the resources to just sell the things, they wouldn't need the kickstarter.

[@ryanmynatt2272]

really like you guys and would love more reviews like this, but hopefully not commissioned videos because that undermines confidence in objectivity

[@GregVandenBosch]

You sold me on it. It's shipping now!

[@LeandroZanella]

Amazing idea and execution, but... no shipping to Brazil :( I just hope it reaches one of the online gaming stores I usually buy stuff from.

[@ademiranda2]

Forget the Dungeon Craft. Where do I get that cool Chathulu t-shirt?

[@ratman505]

I was already considering getting the book at my game table with my friends (~72€ split amongst 6 people is not too bad). Question is: will it work with other medieval themed rpgs as well? I assume it does but I might as well ask. We're not playing D&D so we always have to be cautious if we can use the stuff or if it's too specific

[@DungeonDudes]

It will work for any medieval fantasy.

[@MrAntsRants]

Kelly, where is your mindflayer/hydra tshirt from? Its brilliant.

[@adammalone2909]

That looks pretty great. Wish them luck!

[@Samael767]

Be forewarned, I bought this and it finally arrived. The pieces look and feel great and I don't regret my purchase! But it is not a book. There is no binder. It's just a ton of flat cut-out sheets. Just very surprised by that, considering how many times they say book. Maybe that was a Kickstarter exclusive? Sounds about right.

[@The_Sharktocrab]

It comes in a box now instead

[@Null--]

Nevermind - they only ship to US, UK, CAN, GER, and AUS

[@luuuvbung8990]

bruh this is super cool, but like I feel it’s a lot easier for me to draw my own maps lmao. I just don’t get these laminated cards, but y’all are more than welcome to do whatever you want. Chessex has my whole heart

[@ryanherbert4878]

Would it be advisable to buy more than one copy?

[@millsy7131]

Does anyone know of any products similar to these? I have all these already and would love more like this.

[@burgasaurus7792]

Does this get shipped to Canada???

[@adownbeatexegete1549]

Wow. I can actually afford to play DnD!

[@daddyp1877]

I heard price point over and over... How much is it?

[@DungeonDudes]

It's approximately $30 USD to back it now, but there are a few more options on the Kickstarter.

[@daddyp1877]

@@DungeonDudes appreciate the speedy reply guys. That's not a horrible price at all for what it is. I was just curious because from what im seeing d&d is starting to get a popularity explosion and other non related things like Heroscape sets are now up in the $200 price points. Keep up the great work dudes! Love the channel

[@grapejuice6604]

whats the durability like with these?

[@DungeonDudes]

It's laminated paper, so they do bend and fold. The price and quantity definitely make up for it.

Went to kickstart aaaand they dont ship to sweden... >

[@sauljaffe4268]

This book has many flaws that I can see, including several that apply to products like Dungeon Tiles Reincarnated and that is that you need to buy multiple copies of the book. For example, if you need both the top level of the ship and the bottom level at the same time - say because the party has split up - you need two copies of the book to get both. I think I'd prefer single-sided pieces where the other side is either blank or just a blank grid and not something specific that you might need.

[@coreyflynn8445]

Or just take quick photos or draw an erasable initial where everyone was...you're not wrong, totally agree, but there are some workarounds

[@sassysasquatch1886]

I agree, you aren’t wrong. But two copies of this book at $30 each is still cheaper and easier than a 3D terrain boat.
