[QUOTE="SlyFlourish, post: 4491761, member: 54840"] [b]tiles, maps, dwarven forge[/b] I have about eight dwarven forge sets that I use most of the time now but I often have to build out different versions of the rooms than the adventures have. I also end up having to railroad the party a bit to make sure they go to the rooms I've already built out. Before that I used dwarven forge and the pre-printed miniature maps. The best way to use dwarven forge, I found, was to build them a room at a time and use blue poster tack to stick them to a piece of cardboard or black poster board. This way you can keep a portfolio of rooms ready for some of the upcoming encounters and pull them out when you need to. Next week we're going to start the Demon Well in the Thunderspire adventure. There's a lot of rooms that aren't linear so I plan to build some of them with dungeon tiles, some of them with dwarven forge on a tray I can bring in, and some I'm just going to draw with a flip map. I think the flip map is the most economical and flexible way to go although it lacks a lot of the sex appeal of Dwarven Forge. I absolutely love setting up a cool room of dwarven forge stuff. It's great, but expensive and not as flexible as a flip map. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
