I am a DM of about a year and a half and are nearing the end of Storm Kings thunder with a group. I have been writing steps for a hunger games inspired battle royale that will have the players present only, and they will face off against one another as well as the enemy that is all around them (the arena itself). Here is my problem, I will be creating a battle map and i use enounter+ so have the ability to reveal parts of the map at a time as i have in previous sessions. BUT i cant have other players seeing the locations of others, especially because i will be using this for some people who have never played D&D before (I have mega simplified character creation stuff) so meta will be expected. I understand that it might be difficult but i was hoping that if we put our minds together we can find ways to address the following; how each player can have independent maps so only they can see their sorroundings and current location private between them and DM, perhaps even ideas about information etc...
Any input it appreciated greatly!
