Metal washers, glue, photopaper and an ink jet printer walk into a bar...

Thought I'd share this here... my metal tokens and 1" map in action...
Look what can be done with a printer, photopaper, metal washers and glue...

I like gaming as much as anyone... but don't you think gluing the maps to the hardwood floor is a bit extreme?!?

Are you crazy? I didnt do that...
My wife would kill me... The glue was for the washers... the map is just sitting on the floor... unglued....

lol

very cool; I'm glad you posted what they look like

I've been keeping in mind this idea for future reference, although for now I don't mind makeshifting minis.

I had figured this, of course.

I was merely trying to get a laugh...

Has anyone ever tried going vertical? Putting either a magnet behind the map and using tokens (as described here) or putting metal behind the map and using a magnetic conversion kit (a la Alea tools or homemade)?

Or would it be too much work to actually have to stand up to play?

I laughed FWIW. But I have a weird sense of humor, so that may not actually be an endorsement...

map question

How did you make your map? It looks soo good. While I'm at it where did you get the images for the tokens?

They look like a simple screenshot of the game's pdf. (on the origin of which we will not speculate )

...also, some "massaging" with a graphics software is apparent (to place the creature names, and so on)
