Pathfinder Map Pack: "Ruined Village" [RPG]

I’ve used the Ruined Village Map Pack in a couple of scenarios now.  I think it offers a nice array of detailed locations that all fit on the theme of an abandoned village.  There’s a nice little cemetery (I’m surprised Paizo hasn’t made flip-mats for graveyards, considering how often adventurers go to them), a weed-choked fountain, and several houses and buildings of various sizes with broken furniture, cracked flooring, and debris everywhere.  It’s definitely much more interesting and evocative than someone could draw with a marker.  Most of the tiles could fit together to make one large village, with the exception being the two broken bridge spans crossing a river.  I can envision a lot of uses for this Map Pack: a campsite the PCs come across just at sunset, an old hermit’s hut, a bandit hideout, a ghost-infested ruin, or even just an ordinary village that has fallen on (really) hard times.  Its versatility and design quality makes it a solid product worth purchasing.
