A fortified farmhouse battlemap, drawn from Tibetan architecture & based on the climate of the cold nomadic steppes! Here is where the richest of the local land-lords oversees their fields from, inside an ancestral home built up over generations. It may not look like much, but compared to the stone cottage neighbors, this luxurious manor is a veritable baron’s keep, and can keep out any raiders that may come past!
Which is why you, as a GM, have the raiders burn the fields.
Thoughts
The lower half of the map doubles as a smaller crossroads map, if you crop out the farmstead.
Thorn-bushes are used as cattle-herding barriers. Don’t let people charge through them for free!
There’s a ladder embedded in the cellar wall for extensions or secret escape routes if need be.
The watchtower gong can be used to announce to the field workers, but it might also signal approaches, or be used to wake the residents…
