LUG Con 2026: Announcing Black Belt Maps as a New Exhibitor and Featured for Free RPG Day in Buford!
The road to LUG Con 2026 is officially underway, and we have a massive announcement to kick off the season! We are incredibly thrilled to introduce our newest featured exhibitor: the legendary Black Belt Maps.
To celebrate, you won’t have to wait until convention weekend to meet them. Black Belt Maps will be joining us live at Level Up Games in Buford for the highly anticipated Level Up Games Free RPG Day on Saturday, June 27, 2026!
Meet the Mastermind Behind Black Belt Maps: Anthony Hilton
If you want your tabletop roleplaying games to feel truly immersive, you need maps that tell a story. That is exactly what Anthony Hilton, the creative force behind Black Belt Maps, delivers.
Anthony is a veteran Dungeon Master, a father of four, and, yes, the name is literal, a 3rd-degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do! He channels that discipline and passion directly into crafting stunning, high-detail TTRPG battle maps and custom D&D maps that elevate any campaign.
You might already recognize his incredible work from the Roll20 Marketplace, Patreon, or his published map layouts in popular Yog’du Games Kickstarter adventures, including “Porkin’ in the Void” and “Call of Irigas”. Whether you play sci-fi, classic high fantasy, or grimdark horror, Anthony’s maps give players a tactical, beautiful grid to wage war on. Best of all? He actively takes custom commissions to bring your specific homebrew worlds to life.
