Help! Need Maps of a Drow Estate

[Garnfellow]

So my players have finally made to my conversion of D3, Vault of the Drow. Next session they will probably reach Erelhei-Cinlu, and if things go according to plan, they will begin planning an assault on the Eilserv compound.

To this end, I need some maps of a drow estate. Here's the description of a typical noble compound from D3:

Each of the eight noble houses has its own estate and a palace-fortress complex thereon. Although there are no forests or fungi and crystal growths, there are small brakes and copses of these things growing along the road and between estate boundaries. Each estate consists of a large (30+ room) palace surrounded by outbuildings and connecting walls to form a large compound. Outbuildings include 1d3+1 small villas, barracks, stables, menagerie, and slave quarters.

Any suggestions on maps from an existing product (any edition, any publisher) that could be used? Ideally, I'd really like a floorplan of a palace-fortress complex. I'm not necessarily looking for a specifically drow map, just something that would be a good sub. Something large and exotic, like an L5R map, would probably work great.

Anything from any 2nd edition sources that might be of use? There were many FR books I never got.

(And no, I'm not worried about getting any Realms cooties on my nice Greyhawk campaign.)

Not at home presently, but are there any maps in City of the Spider Queen or the old Menzobaranazan (sp????) that might be of use.

I don't remember if Dezzavold had any fortress maps, but it's a great source for 3.5-ready drow fodder.

Arg -- filter at work blocks off rpgarchive.com -- but go there and look for my name or House DeVile -- a map I made for a drow adventure some time ago...

Or -- at wizards.com -- was there a map gallery for city of the spider queen?

I'll check some of my stuff tonight when I get home and see if I can find anything that will work...

tons of maps in the Menzoberanzan boxed set. I highly recommend it. Although I'm not sure how close they fit your description.

Menzoberranzen is a great resource. Below is a quick sketch I made for a nobel house in the vault.

I couldn't tell from the reviews whether or not Dezzavold had fortress maps, but if you're plugging it, I'll take a harder look.

Nice . . . I had looked at that ages and ages ago. Many thanks!

Looks like there is at least one yoinkable castle plan there.
