The second set in my Tactical Encounter Series is available now. Two large connected maps, blank versions to dress how you wish, 61 map tiles to change and enhance game play and 136 PNG objects! Combines easily with my first set, Smuggler's Hideout and features connections to several upcoming sets. Check it out!&nbsp; <a href="https://marketplace.roll20.net/browse/set/982/anci" rel="nofollow">https://marketplace.roll20.net/browse/set/982/anci</a>...

The set looks good. I especially like the maps that are already assembled and just about ready to drop-on-page and use right away. One area of question, or slight UI issue, on the Marketplace the Titles of each piece of art are truncated, with no line-wrap. So the names of the matching maps appear identical in Marketplace UI. I see 3 versions of Ancient Tomb, and 3 versions of Ancient Catacombs. I do understand from the artist's posting telling that there are "blank versions to dress", but what are the other 2 versions? Presumably one is not blank (would this one be named "dressed"?). And so, what is the 3rd version, and which one is which? &nbsp;I can get an idea from looking at the thumbnail images. The actual Global Tags appears identical on them, I don't see a "blank" tag on the Blank ones. &nbsp; As a practical matter when the user goes to search Library or Art Search in-game "From the Marketplace" results, and to locate the one that they want, what is your system of tagging or naming? For example if I type... David AncientCatacombs Dressed , or David AncientCatacombs Blank , will this bring the 1 piece alone? I am guessing that the 3 AncientCatacomb maps have a distinguishing word at the end of the title but it is truncated as described. And again, what would be the 3rd word for the 3rd map if one is blank and one is dressed? Thank you!

This is another fantastic set! There's tons of really nice detail, your object variety is on point, really really solid work, you are a great addition to the marketplace! I don't know why, but that rolled up rug is making me REALLY happy haha!

The 2 blank versions are a gloomy, darker version (with the word "Blank" at the end of the file name), and a set with the darkness turned off so the PNGs really look as if they belong on them (with the words "BlankNoDark" at the end of the file name). You can see on the preview the change in lighting on the blank ones, but for the purposes of searching it could be slightly difficult to find the map you want. So I should probably put "blank" and "blank" "no_darkness" or something in the tags for future sets and make the map file names to the point right up front. Thanks for the tip Gold. Very helpful.
