Would you like to see more modern content?
🕑 Added 2022-08-03 21:28:54 +0000 UTCHey everyone!
We've been pleasantly suprised by how successful Hyperdrive Fleet has been. It was a bit of a gamble to see how much of our community also wanted sci-fi maps but it turns out that it was a lot of people!
With the exception of the Train Station and Hangar Bay, we've shied away from making overtly modern content here at Czepeku. Anything which is too steampunk, victorian, dieselpunk, etc. doesn't seem to fit with the more fantasy/magical feeling of our usual content. And we know from this recent poll that the majority of you play fantasy and sci-fantasy settings.
So our question is: would you like to see more modern content? I.e anything from between about 1850-1950 in our world. Factories, tanks, steam mechs, steamships, cinemas, research labs, etc.
The sort of content you'd expect of Blades in the Dark, Mortal Engines, Legend of Korra, Howl's Moving Castle, His Dark Materials, and Dishonoured. Electricity, wires, dark alleys, smoke, metal and brick vibes.
Or: would you prefer that we stick to the range of content we've been making over the last few years (generally a mix of European and Asian fantasy) and do like Hyperdrive Fleet and create all the 'modern' content somewhere else?
For those wondering: Eberron fits somewhere in the middle, it's a bit steampunk-y but it's also got a lot of magitech. Of course we'll continue making elemental ships and fun sci-fantasy stuff here at Czepeku regardless. :)

My D&D setting does a lot of the "magic as industry" flavour, so dieselpunk stuff is super useful to me, especially trains and/or airships. Weird West assets fit perfectly too. (Man, if I had a dollar for every time I wanted a rocky desert map and all I had was sandy deserts...)

A connection would be great! I'll DM you.

I primarily play Cyberpunk with some Elflines Online moments sprinkled in. I would definitely welcome any maps I can use for my main campaign.

Absolutely agree with the beekeeper, I am currently running a weird west game rn and would love some maps I could use easily!

I'm interested in seeing more dieselpunk maps, especially those with a wild-west/weird-west theme.

Des maps SF, m'intéresse beaucoup pour les parties de Starfinder ^^

I would not use modern maps much, but would use steampunk maps. Urban maps that aren't too tied to a time period are also great.

Dishonoured vibes are great vibes as far as I'm concerned!

I don't like the idea of modern maps, but I like the other two - and if it paves the way towards ruined tech maps that I desperately need, I take it.

That is a pretty even split there.
I write for Evil Genius Games as a freelancer, and I would totally be interested in more modern maps and content. They're making the new Everyday Heroes d20 Modern rules for 5e. In fact, if you aren't in touch with them already I can help with that.
