Battle Maps

[Bruize]

So things have been going so well with my Sunday group (Unit 27) who are in the middle of Digging for Lies, that I have decided to run the campaign in person as well. My Sunday game uses Fantasy Grounds 2, a Virtual Table Top.

My question is if there are battle maps available for download? By this I mean I want to print out the maps for use with standard minis/tokens.

If they are not available, is there a certain scaling I can print the existing maps at that will make them fit standard minis/tokens? I'm thinking of heading to Kinkos and using thei

There was a short discussion about high-res maps here: http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?330628-High-Res-Map-of-the-Coaltongue

The short answer is no, there aren't any high-res maps available. I priced having some of the maps blown up and printed at a copy place and the price was very high, if i recall, over $100 for a single map. I have had some luck re-sizing the images and printing the maps in sections, and although the results are a bit blurry, they still look better than my chicken scratch if i were to draw it all out by hand. I'm going to try and attach a photo of one of them.

I have made conversions of all the battle maps until adventure 4 with poster razor so can print them in pieces and glue them together. The definition is not the best but it quickens the game a lot not having to draw them and if you have a colour printer the look quite nice.

I'm guessing that Hitomi Camacho is referring to PosteRazor: http://posterazor.sourceforge.net/

I'm definitely going to look into this, since, as you can see by white gap in the image above, sometimes things don't line up quite right.

if you can fit it on a 24"x36" poster, Vistaprint will print it for ten to fifteen dollars and ship it for about six, I think. Much cheaper than the "over $100" you were getting quoted.

Exactly, I haven't found yet an easier to use program... not the most precise but sure it does the work.
