Sweet Mother Of Ptolus!

[Henry]

I swear I've read something like that before...how about you, Henry?

You just gave me my new .sig quote.

And let me take this opportunity to say, Claudio, that I love these disks! I just printed 100 dire rats last night. Hoo boy, is it going to suck to be my players today.

The cool thing is, since the images are in jpg format, you can resize them or drop them into a character sheet. Oh yes, the CC digital disks make me a very happy girl.

Agreed. For miniatures or counters, its the best resource I own, bar none.

The party all blanched when I put out a colossal scorpion the other day (a normal scorpion, resized and then printed from the Collection.) They positively panicked when I then put out five more.

That Digital counter collection is something I keep putting on my Xmas lists, but my wife never gets. In this case, if Fiery Dragon's turning out an updated one within the next few months, that's not a bad thing anymore!

Fiery Dragon realized that people outside of North America might want this: OVERSEAS [$35 shipping].


Peace and smiles

I emailed Fiery Dragon to see if they will honour the initial price I paid when I placed the order (as the overseas shipping option wasn't available a couple of days ago). Looking forward to seeing what the reply is ...

(OT: I put the digitial counter collection to great use last night when I ran the second half of the Tomb of Horrors for my group. And nobody ripped the counters up in a fit of pique when I TPKed them, either - sweet!)

Darn, I thought that this thread was actually about Ptolus' sweet mother.

Just heard back from Fiery Dragon - they're sending me the map at the original price quoted when I placed the order .

Thanks guys - you are men of honour and distinction and I salute you!

 

[Odhanan]

Just ordered the goody!

Monte and Ed should sign and number these limited edition big boys. (hint, hint)

Not sure I'd have a need for such a large map.

Along those lines, this "looks" cool, but is it practical?

What would you do with it, besides hang it on the wall and ooh and ah over it?

I don't see a need to draw routes on it or anything like that. Easier to describe, or to print out one of the smaller electronic maps for a focused area.

It's not miniature scale, so a map like that would be better for combat encounters, and even "setting the scene" with miniatures.

Does anyone have a use for this besides looking at it?

I'm wondering if my game will be better off were I to spend that money on Ptolus miniatures, Fiery Dragon's counter collection for Ptolus (or their digital one), Dwarven Forge stuff, you name it.

I'd like to think I could use it if I spent the money on it.

Any ideas?
