(some people like minis as 3D models but not "flat" counters)Do you have a (color) printer or access to one?Thinking about terrain a bit for "special" things? (as opposed to just drawing everything that is encountered)I've seen lots of threads and sites and forums on all of these things so if you can answer the above questions I know the rest of your EN Board pals (myself included) will bombard you with urls and such... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
