[QUOTE="Emirikol, post: 4081660, member: 10638"] I still use hobby store shrubbery/trees, a few sticks, and handfuls of small rocks I pick up a the dinosaur quarry nearby. They get used in every adventure and can be put in any combo. The problem with tiles is that YOU'RE LIMITED TO TILES. Especially the dungeon ones..gaak. It's the only time I actually use dominoes for walls and blah-vis a vis markers. You know your product is lame when it's beat out by visavis markers ;) I've been really disappointed in the tiles that were put out. I've bought them..but they're just not that special. It's a bunch of blank corridors and acouple unique tiles (tiles you can really only use once before your players look at you like "the giant skeleton again"? (as the other poster noted). The tiles that I get the most use out of are ones that you can use EVERY game. Campsite. Armory. gravestones. braziers/lanterns/continuallight. I personally think tables, chairs, Barrels, boxes and crates should ONLY be 3D. Anyways..it looks like the DDI stuff has the potential to evolve once hte bugs are ironed out..but I'll be a "Late adopter" in that regards ;) Jay [/QUOTE]
