[QUOTE="JamesonCourage, post: 6184798, member: 6668292"] Hmm, I do have Jenga blocks, so I might utilize this somehow. I'm not planning on purchasing any minis, wooden blocks, dungeon tiles, etc. But, I might be able to rig something some of the time with Jenga blocks, so thanks for the useful suggestion there, at least. I was using clear dice, but I still had a problem. What if creatures need to share the same square (one creature is flying over another, or under another by swimming under a dock, etc?)? Do I need to draw an identical section on the battle map, and just show them where they're at?

It sounds like it could be really useful. This might be my best bet. I just did a "slope" with multiple 10 foot drop-offs on either side, and my players seemed to understand it well enough. I still have the overlapping squares issue (with both terrain and creatures occupying spaces), though. I could see using props like this every so often, if I have some lying around in a box. Thanks for the suggestion :) Even if I did this, does this handle the overlapping squares issue? This is my main concern right now.
