Nice.  I think this has developed into quite a big idea from what we started as.  Making some tokens and maps became a whole new (at least to me) way of making maps and tokens and keeping track of status and such.  If I am ever DM for some game I am going to use this system.  Or at least suggest it to the group I play in

For those of you interested in large format printing, check with your local college/university.  It is incredibly common for faculty and grad students to present posters at conferences and many schools have acquired a large format printer to accomidate the printing of those posters.  If they do have one, they may also allow anyone to print on it for a reasonable price.  My University, for instance, charges $3/sq ft for heavy paper and $5/sq for a semi-gloss or gloss paper (gloss paper is essentially photo paper).

Perhaps the only precept taught me by Grandfather Wills that I have honored all my adult life is that profanity and obscenity entitle people who don’t want unpleasant information to close their eyes and ears to you.

Thanks BP, I’ll make sure I check that out when I get down at college.  The college might be helping me out a bit, since I found out they have a tabletop “club” sorta thing.  I need to shoot off and email and find out more about that from the head guy.

I think I know the answer, but would a pdf of the scaled printable shadowfell keep maps be something you may want?

Is that even legal to post?

I am not sure about legality since they are altered images...but I would think that posting would be a no-no.

Yea, it sounds like something I would like. But like Talae said it also sounds like it could come with a tangle of legal problems.  Anything not just for your personal use (or your groups use in this case) could probably be bad.

That may be what I’m going with.

Looks like a solid bet to me.  Just anything with colors or some other way to distinguish from one another will work fine

Here is a set of tokens for PC’s.  They are unlabeled.
These are 3.5 races, so sorry Tieflings and Dragonborns…
They were made with Tokentool, which I was experimenting with.  I like it, once you tweak the resolution, photoshopping with it is a breeze.
I think the 1” cutter will cut out the nice border though…

Enjoy.

I figure if it is safe to post power cards with text lifted right off the new rulebook, old artwork is safe as well (!)
