Combat Assets 4

Added 2024-05-29 18:40:40 +0000 UTC

Hey folks!

When putting out last month's addition to the Destroyed Assets series, I felt that an expansion of the Combat Assets would be a natural companion to that. This latest set of unfortunate creatures was made a bit differently than Combat Assets of the past. While previously (in Part 3 especially) I had made measures to include skeletons of corpses that matched their more recently deceased counterparts, this time I opted to omit that option in favor of including a greater number and variety of corpses. It's my hope that as we expand this particular part of the library to a greater number of NPC and Monster types that we'll gradually be able to cover a huge swath of reasonably expected scenarios for any campaign.

Combat Assets 4 contains:

A total of 41 unique corpses, ranging from your tiny birdies to the hulking form of an ogre
Two color palette options for each corpse
I took extra time to dissect back into each of those creatures and isolate out individual parts that I thought may be helpful. Therefore you'll find a selection of clothing, armor, and monster parts to make maximum use of the set.
And of course, my "example map" of an Underdark facility that has clearly fallen on hard times. You'll find this map with its standard variants, along with a "bare" version where I've tried to clean away many of the more unique elements and leave you with something a bit more broadly useful.

The Dungeondraft-ready conversion of Combat Assets 4 contains everything therein as an object within the mapmaking program. In addition to some basic colorable options, I also put in some extra time so that we'd have colorable versions of the bodies as well (I chose for the colorable option to be focused on the skin color).
