Loke BattleMats is now live on Kickstarter right now with two brand new RPG Encounter Toolboxes for Dungeon Masters to get stuck into. Are you tempted to dive in and use these alongside your Dungeons & Dragons quests?

There are two Encounter Toolboxes for you to choose from that include everything that you need in order to dive into a one-off or linked campaign game for 5th Edition Dungeons & Dragons.

Inside each of the Toolboxes, you will find a full selection of battle maps for you to use with the various encounters that Loke has put together. These then match up with the pre-written adventures for The Long Road and The Veiled Dungeon.
As well as that, each boxed set also comes with a set of bonus features like the unique monsters designed for these campaigns and the random encounter generators. This means that there is a LOT in this set that can be used beyond the point where you've finished both of the above adventures.

What's also nice about these sets is that you can reuse all of the components. Each of the battle maps has been designed to be wipe-clean using dry-erase markers so you can doodle and then rub them clean for another day. PLUS, they also match up well with Loke's extensive collection of books so you can continue future adventures using these kits.

In addition to the two Toolboxes that we've looked at here, the folks at Loke are also going to be offering up some bonus books that can be used to enhance your adventures.

One of these is Tricks & Traps which can be used to make your adventurers fear stepping into any dungeon. Rather than having to guesstimate exactly how far your adventurers need to leap, use these to fully detail the deadly traps that they are going to find down in a given dungeon.
You also have the Big Book Of Rooms which can be slotted alongside other maps to make interesting encounters in large rooms and chambers. Perfect for a boss fight or two I reckon.

This is just the start of what Loke is looking to offer up. You will be able to check out Stretch Goals and more over on the campaign and there are going to be added options in the mix once the pledge manager swings around post-campaign.

I know some don’t like KS, and Loke has other map sets available retail. Their “Box of Adventure: Valley of Peril” lacks the RPG supplements, but has digital map content. The foldout maps of both the “RPG Toolkit” and “Box of Adventure” can be used to make a map large enough for a miniature skirmish game!
The KS does come with bonus digital content. I prefer PDFs for adventures and encounter tables, since this lets me print out only what I need for the game session, and I can print illustrations from the adventures for handouts.

A brilliant looking set’s of D&D gaming components for the game lover’s groups. May be just the thing for special forces gamers as well.
These look every bit as good as their previous stuff.
