This vibrant 1920s battle map brings investigators to the edge of a vast, sweltering lake frontier. The layout features a labyrinthine fish market filled with narrow stalls, a railway station for quick getaways or ambushes, and sprawling wooden docks where steam ferries are moored. The dense commercial zone provides ample cover behind crates, market stands, and fishing gear, while the open docks and train platforms expose characters to both the blazing sun and potential ranged fire. Tactically, the environment offers multiple levels of interaction for VTT platforms, including heavy line-of-sight blockers among the market stalls and dynamic lighting opportunities as day turns to night over the murky water. The shallow waters surrounding the docks are heavily infested with crocodiles, turning a simple fall off the pier into a deadly encounter. Investigators must navigate the crowded market alleys to escape cultists or secure passage on a steamship before the train departs.
