From the archives: A Brief Sojourn at Bridley-Ney

 Rising up from the archives, gasping for air and blinking in the unaccustomed daylight, come a collection of maps originally drawn for Call of Cthulhu. These include town maps, and a large multi-parter designed to got together as a 1930s light house.

The peaceful island of Bridley New, off the south coast of England.

Town map showing Bridley-Ney town in 1935. Not shown: sinister squid cults. But it's for Call of Cthulhu, so you can just assume they are there somewhere.

This is the complete lighthouse map, assembled from the various scans below.

I drew accessories on a seperate page so I could add or remove them at will - this way the map can also be used for fantasy games.

The tool bench is designed to have the engine block seen above on it. Not very fantasy, so I made it removable.

Okay, so 44 Gallon drums are not very fantasy either, but I guess I wasn't thinking when I drew those it.

To get everything to fit on scalable sized A4 paper, I had to split some of the rooms up inventively. It was a bit confusing drawing like this.

Well, even sinister squid cultists enjoy roast dinner it seems...

Well, that's about it for the archives. If I dig anything up, it'll go up on a Monday or Thursday I guess...
