Waterdeep City Map - Countryside - Part 4 (All Tiers)
🕑 Added 2025-05-29 13:28:37 +0000 UTCTHIS IS IT! The final* release for Waterdeep! After months of drawing thousands of tiny little boxes we have a complete map of all wards and the surrounding area.
*Over the weekend I will be putting together a mega-post that re-releases every Ward - so that everything is filled in around the ward and they aren't just floating in a sea of grey background. Here's what I'm aiming for:
Ward maps: 10px, 20px, and 300dpi ward maps; in unlabelled, labelled, and a "shaded" version (so the ward will appear normal, and everything outside the ward boundary will be a bit darker so it's easy to determine the boundary
Complete maps: 10px and 20px jpg and pngs of the whole city and surrounding area. I've also started putting together a 300dpi image....it's massive - beyond the limits of what png/jpg/webp supports; so it'll likely be in a format like tiff (or bigtiff). If anyone decides to get this printed out (I'd be honoured), any print shop should be able to work with tiff.
Tiled maps: if you are feeling bold and want to tile the city together in higher resolution - these maps will let you do so with straight cuts between the tiles so everything can be laid out easily.
Let me know if there is something else you think would be useful for your game and I will see if I can get it together!
Before that though, here's part 4:
Waterdeep. Countryside and Undercliff. The rural areas surrounding Waterdeep. A wide area of rolling grassland filled with farms, orchards, and areas for animal husbandry.
This is Release 4 for the countryside and Undercliff, but is perhaps better described as the Great Harbour and Coast.
Notes. This release includes the completed Great Harbour and Naval Harbour as well as the outlying islands of Deepwater Isle and Stormhaven Island.
I won't be releasing a "complete countryside" post as the complete map posts mentioned above will do this + fill the city in in the middle.
Files. Files are attached below in both jpg and png formats, in 10px and 20px grid sizing (maps are not gridded). NOTE (different from usual): there are no 300dpi images included with these releases yet. We are suddenly into massive files (20,000px+ dimensions) and as we are so close to the end, I will release the high quality files once everything is all stitched together.
Part 4 dimensions: 1185x1000

Amazing job on all this map series!

This has been an incredible series. I cannot begin to express how incredible getting this high quality of map has been. Other Waterdeep adjacent maps that could either use a refresh or haven't been fleshed out include: - Sewers! -Castle Waterdeep -Deepwater Harbor and/or the seacaves to Skullport (under the waves) -A regional map from Mount Sar to Ardeep Forest -My pie-in-the-sky map is an actually cool Field of Triumph. For being a colosseum, most maps of it begin and end with the field itself. Any actual adventures I run during tournaments revolve around fights in the stands, stairwells, and basements or in the massive storage spaces for monsters and locker rooms for combatants. Not to mention a map would help me lay out what factions sit where, since in Waterdeep tickets are strictly controlled by the Guildmasters. Love all the work you've been doing and I hope you're as happy with it as we are!
