For my first ever Basic Fantasy Rpg adventure I've gone retro with my mapping style! What do you think?

As soon as I read your post I thought 'they better be blue!' and indeed they were.
Your campaign is awesome BTW.. I was perusing it tonight. You obviously put alot of work into it.. nice job!

Nice! What software did you use to produce them?

I make my maps in CC3. It nicely compensates for my absence of artistic talent.

If the map is blue, it must be true. Nice stuff.
On a side note, is there a specific reason the old maps were in blue? Was this a printing/copying function, or was it a specific style choice?

Don't know how accurate this is but it answers your question.
