[QUOTE="Cergorach, post: 9266716, member: 725"] Also keep in mind that 'better' is very subjective. As an example: We're currently using primarily DungeonDraw in FVVT with a whole load of assets from Forgotten Adventures. As I'm a player, I do not have advance notice on what the maps look like, so everything is done ad-hoc, by me. And I wanted to improve that experience, before spending a ton of time and money on something people might not appreciate as much as they could. I showed them a couple of artstyles: Forgotten Adventures (map from the Paizo KM module), a map made with Dungeon Alchemist, a map from Crosshead Studios and one of Phandelver and Below maps. They all said they preferred the Crosshead Studios art style, as being 'clearer' on screen. [I]That all agreed![/I] :eek: Without discussion! Also, if you have the 'better' maps for this adventure, you could easily change the map image.
