    Gaming table advice

    Yeah, I think I'm going to try doing this: 1. 4x8 29" tall 2. Dry erase surface with no grid (Going to use Tact-tiles, since scrolling is better than not, which kind of defeats the gridded table idea, plus grids are super expensive built in) 3. 3 pull out shelves on each side and maybe on ends...

    Counters .pdf file sizing help

    Yeah, I have office. Word is installed and I have Photoshop. What do you recommend I do to get the images out of the .pdf file and broken up. The easiest so far seems to open them individually in Photoshop and resave as .jpg's. Is there a better way? Thanks!

    Counters .pdf file sizing help

    Well, after some more experimenting it seems if I open the .pdf in Photoshop I have some better options. I'll play in there a bit. If anyone has a .psd template already that would be cool. :) Also, it would be good if you could export the pictures from the .pdf directly to .jpgs like you can...

    Counters .pdf file sizing help

    Ok, I bought Counter Collection Gold and the Summoned creatures #5. When I open them in Adobe Reader and set it to actual size they are not the correct size? How do I fix this? Although they do print correctly, well not exactly perfect but it seems close. What is the best way to get them to...

    Eberron could be interesting, as well as good old Greyhawk (nostalgia kicking in. :) )

    Thanks for the lesson sessions offer, I might take you up on that. Totally appreciated. I will probably be able to come to both meetings and check them out, not 100% sure I can make both but I will try. Overall, I don't know if I can commit to 2 games, but I at least want to check them out...

    Chicago Area Gamers Wanted

    Well, I'd overall prefer to join a new low level campaign, which would be a nice way to start playing again. But, that being said, I'm still open to checking an existing one as well. Whatever ends up working out the best. :) Weeknights are best, but I can be flexible, especially now that the...

    Likewise, I'd like to stay in the Chicago, north side world. I'm too rusty to DM a full on group. As for playing, something easy to start, low level, Greyhawk, maybe Eberron would be cool, but I'm flexible. I'm open most weekday nights, weekends are a little harder. Keep me posted. :)

    I'm also on the Chicago north side, maybe looking for a game ...email sent. :) I'd like to, if possible, find a lower level setting to start so I can re-learn and get back in to things. Perhaps the Greyhawk setting could be fun.

    Chicago - north side - looking for a group!

    Hi all … haven’t played in a while but I’m looking to get in to a good game. Feeling the need for more “face to face” gaming. I’m good with D&D up to 3.0 rules, although I would need to learn the 3.5 changes. I would be open to something else but I am much more experienced with D&D. I’m located...
