DIGITAL MAP PACK FOR THE FREE ADVENTURE ABATTOIR 8

From ENnie-award winning terror master Richard Pett and Creative Developer Sean Astin comes Abattoir 8, the first adventure out of Grimmerspace, the new Sci-Fi horror setting compatible with the StarfinderTM  Role-Playing game.

When a mysterious disaster leaves an orbiting agricultural space station silent and dark, the halted flow of food threatens nearby colonies with starvation, rioting, and desertion.

Investigating PCs find themselves trapped aboard the hellscape that is Abattoir 8.

To escape, they must reach the station’s control center by navigating treacherous half-mile high food processing silos plagued by maniacs, beasts, and berserk machinery.

Strap on your armor, charge your environment protections, and toss some extra magazines into your backpack. They might do you some good before this all ends.

Forget heroism… can you race through the pandemonium and escape in one piece?

This .zip file contains:

  • player and GM versions of all the maps, already extracted for you to use on Discord, for play-by-post, or for other gaming tools
  • the art from the adventure, extracted for your use

You can download Abattoir 8 and this map pack for free, but only until our Kickstarter ends in June. After that, we plan to offer Kickstarter backers an expanded version of the adventure in both digital and print formats. If you want your free, digital-only copy of Abattoir 8 or this map pack, you need to download it now. 

New to the Starfinder Roleplaying Game? Grimmerspace backers will have the option of also purchasing the Starfinder Core Rulebook or the Starfinder Beginner Box as part of the Kickstarter.

Any chance of getting higher resolutions of these that would work for .vtt? The current resolutions are unfortunately too low to be viable for use with tokens and such on R20.

We're actually working on that. So while we don't have it at the moment and we can't make any promises just yet (sorry, just swamped getting ready and if we made promises we'd be blowing smoke), .vtt is planned for the future. Please look for .vtt announcements during the Kickstarter, and we hope to have updates for Abattoir 8 in that timeframe as well. Wish we could be more concrete, but when we do have an update we'll let the Grimmerspace facebook group, the Grimmerspace mailing list (signups at grimmerspace.com), and the Grimmerspace forums over at Modiphius know. Hope that helps.

First of thanks for downloading the map pack. I had a blast creating them.

These maps were originally designed for the book only but we wanted to have them for GMs to use as handouts for players.

As Lou mentioned above, sign up and stay tuned because .vtt maybe planned for the future!

Thank you for providing them free of charge, it's somewhat rare to see hand drawn maps like these compared to the more common computer precision maps seen in other sci fi series such as Future Armada and Shadows Over Sol.

In this case the artistic style gives the adventure a much more organic feel than it would otherwise have, and really "fits" the theme beautifully, looking forward to seeing the higher resolution versions!

The maps in the digital pack are 300DPI, if you downscale to 75 DPI, they are getting close to the 70x70 squares that roll20 uses - ofc you need to rotate the maps - i'm working on fettling these maps for roll20 right now

The issue is while the maps themselves such as the docking bay might be 3600x2400, but the actual "map area" itself is considerably smaller, with nearly half the image taken up with the map key, and border, with the actual map itself relatively small and lower resolution than the original size would imply. Also having all the IL, IH, etc labels on the actual play map is rather sub optimal for player immersion.

Though since the publisher said .vtt is planned for the future, so hopefully we'll get some proper version of these maps in the near future.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
