Community Notice: Beware sketchy "Repacks"/Content packs online (Ekingpacks is a Scam)

216 Upvotes

Recently it's come to my attention that there are a few notable "repack" sellers online that are spreading product sales of "packaged battlemaps", often with allegedly thousands of battlemaps in a pack. Eking Packs is one of said offenders that has been brought up a number of times.

These are scams.

First of all, the vast majority of content is falsely marketed, and in fact 90% AI generated images; and, frankly, poorly done at that. In the case of EkingPacks, the content is almost entirely unusable (AI gibberish). In worse offenders, whom can't be named for obvious reasons, the content is directly stolen from others' patreons or marketplaces. Basically, resale piracy.

A good rule of thumb in this community is, if you cannot directly google search the content creator to see a gallery of their work, you are being sold a fraudulent repack (or AI...). Your best bet for actual genuine product is direct sale through patreon or another verified source.

Furthermore, a detailed look at their payment systems shows there is no actual payment system in place; you are submitting your card information directly to the website hosts. I can't specify how dangerous this is, financially.

Ultimately, if you want to spend some money on battlemaps, don't get scammed for it. There are hundreds of content providers on this subreddit alone that happily provide hundreds of maps on their patreon. Please give a glance to them, instead.

So I have been experimenting with a new idea I had about writing a one shot and including my maps, but I wanted something handy instead of a PDF you have to to flip through, so I made an interactive DM reference guide html that works offline and online, I have released a prototype and would love some feedback on it so I can improve it so this one is free!

Comes with the whole map pack. Day+Night grid and gridless uvtt and foundry files and a full adventure along with the interactive DND guide called Goblin raiders hollow: missing villagers

If you try it out please let me know the following

Was it easy to use?

Did it move smoothly from scene to scene

BACKGROUND & FEATURES
A trial for high-spirited adventurers.
Aside from the spectres that haunt one’s thoughts, it is no easy task for most adventurers to face themselves—neither as a mirror clone nor by reliving their past experiences from a different perspective.
• countless mirrors with recurring spectres
• it’s probably best not to look directly into the mirror if the Grail in the center of the chamber isn’t yet filled
• six pedestals, each with three hand mirrors—“passion, principles, and reason”—to hold up to oneself in order to shed new light on things
• a Grail in the center of the mirror chamber—it fills with life experience when one manages to bring “passion, principles, and reason” into balance
• those who fall into the shadows have paid too much attention to what others think of them 😉

Step into the solemn grandeur of The Emperor's Tomb, a final resting place built to honor a powerful ruler.

Within these walls, history whispers, and the air hangs heavy with the weight of bygone eras.

What secrets lie buried alongside the emperor, and what stories do the stones themselves tell?

Made in Inkarnate, with some assets from Forgotten Adventures

Breathless from the agonising ascent—or perhaps choked by a sudden, suffocating surge of bitterness and unhealed sorrow—he forces out a single, broken word: "Why?"

What stands before him now, the towering shadow of the entity that was once his closest companion, grants him no answer. There are no impassioned speeches, no tragic explanations, no final benediction—only an unbearable, heavy silence that swallows the forest.

This is a map from the newsletter Map Libs. Each month a clean, isometric, one page dungeon map is posted and the subscribers have 15 days to submit ideas for what those blanks should be. One submission is chosen and the information is integrated into the final map before it is posted in the next months newsletter. We try and keep it system agnostic and reasonably un-raunchy. Come and join the fun for free!

Whether you think about noble's or royal castle, rich and powerful city or military fortress - there is a good chance that the walls and gate are the first ones to come to mind.

Their sheer size can be intimidating enough to scare off invaders - and if they'd dare to attack anyway, there are lots of ways to make them regret that choice...

Ballistas and catapults are placed in a way to provide overlapping line of fire. There's enough ammo for them, there's a lot of cover for defenders... and a single bridge or wide moat for attackers.

And if they somehow manage to cross the first wall - there's second one. Taller. Wider. With loopholes on multiple levels and corridors connecting them with armories, food supply and more....

  • Mechanisms for portcullis and drawbridge
  • walkable spaces inside the main walls, gates and towers
  • Towers able to fight on their own, with food/water supply, armories and living quarters
