Ghost Archer Posted April 27, 2004 Report Share Posted April 27, 2004 Re: Game Maps and Counters Exchange Finally found the tile sets. I didn't go into them very deeply to sort them but one group is 48x48 pixels, the other 60x60. Many have transparent sections and can be laid over others, like a the pentagram, crosswalk lines etc. The walls, for the most part, are from WebRPG. Some have been modified. The furnature and street stuff, like newstands, dumpsters, desks, etc. are my work. If you use them, give us all a look. http://the-wild-hunt.org/Large60x60.zip http://the-wild-hunt.org/Small48x48.zip Enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etherio Posted April 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 Re: Game Maps and Counters Exchange Excellent...downloading the tilesets now. I'll surely be using them for something soon...want to give my players a little fun, in-the-streets combat for a change. They've been spending a little too much time underground, inthe countryside, on the moon, and the like. I think they'd enjoy a little down-and-dirty, car-tossing, lightpole swingin' action.

zornwil Posted May 1, 2004 Report Share Posted May 1, 2004 Re: Game Maps and Counters Exchange I'll check back in on this thread after I'm home in a week as I have many maps I could post somewhere and reference here. Perhaps some useful pics as well. Great thread idea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acroyear II Posted May 1, 2004 Report Share Posted May 1, 2004 Re: Game Maps and Counters Exchange Etherio, Any chance you have the full color pics of some of the heroes and villains you posted tiles for? Just wondering if you have full color shots of the Coil guys, Deathstroke, Protectors, and any of the other characters you made tiles for. If you have, could you post 'em, please?

Most of us have homemade maps or props that others of us could find useful. ...or maybe just links to places with cool resources like that.

I don't really enjoy doing maps, so would love to find readymade ones. Also would love to find good pics. Maybe if this develops more widley we could end up with a joint site or something. Of course it should be mentioned many maps will be things taken off the web and then with a hex map over it or the like. Some stuff I'm sure is somebody else's intellectual property. Hope that's cool with everyone. BTW, I hope nobody's going to complain about people's submiissions. Free is free, and sharing is nice. Let's just back off if we think "eww, that looks bad" (some of my stuff DOES, I know it okay?) - it still may be useful. And if not, well, hey, it was nice of someone to share.

Ghost Archer Posted May 2, 2004 Report Share Posted May 2, 2004 Re: Game Maps and Counters Exchange While about half of the tiles I have offered are from WebRPG, they are offered freely by the original artists through WebRPG. Those that I designed I offer freely as well in the hope that others will use them and offer their resultant maps there. I hope we can develop a good exchange.

etherio Posted May 2, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2004 Re: Game Maps and Counters Exchange I hope we can develop a good exchange... Me, too...and for other things besides maps. We could make this a really cool, dynamically-evolving GM resource, as long as people post as well as download. Of course it should be mentioned many maps will be things taken off the web and then with a hex map over it or the like. Some stuff I'm sure is somebody else's intellectual property. Hope that's cool with everyone. Yes...please don't post things that are for sale as maps. Nobody wants to get in trouble. However, there are lots of maps on architects' websites and the like, that are meant as advertising for contractors. I'm sure that us borrowing for geeky, unrelated, non-commercial purposes will be considered harmless. BTW, I hope nobody's going to complain about people's submiissions. Free is free, and sharing is nice. Let's just back off if we think "eww, that looks bad" (some of my stuff DOES, I know it okay?) - it still may be useful.

etherio Posted May 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 Re: Game Maps and Counters Exchange Here are a couple of maps for a real research institute I found somewhere on the internet some time ago....don't remember where I got them, but they weren't for sale as maps. They were on the institute's website. This is perfect for a supers game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wildcat Posted May 11, 2004 Report Share Posted May 11, 2004 Re: Game Maps and Counters Exchange This is Great, I'm bookmarking pages & Links so I can come back latter. I've been doign a bit of carboard mini's myself up until a few weeks ago, when I got Brave and started making things a bit more 3d... 1st I started with a GREAT set of Cardboard terrian from the guys @ MicroTactix.com I bought their "Dirt Cheap City Scape" set & later their "Starship" Interiors set. But from those 2 sets + the Free Downloads I was able to make quite a few 'Custom' buildings... It's really not all that hard, all you need is a sturdy printer, Ink and some 65lb cardstock. Next I got even Braver and I started in on all the 'Hero Clix' I had laying around, and with a little sculpy, Paint and lots of patients we've come up with some reasonable facsimilies of our characters. 1st I'll post some of the Buildings: These were all taken from a battle the team recently had vs Mechanon in a downtown area. Unfortunatly I can't give ya the files for the Scyscrapers (but you can get em Dirt cheap @ http://www.Microtactix.com) but I can get anyone who wants my own custom buildings I made myself, just e-mails me and we'll see about gettign them to you (they are in Photoshop file format, as I don't have Acrobat to make the pdf files) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildcat Posted May 11, 2004 Report Share Posted May 11, 2004 Re: Game Maps and Counters Exchange This was an Inside battle that I used 3D terrain for. It was an underground/underwater base occupied by Prof Muerte (yeah I kept him around for 5the ed :-) ) It was a sort of 'Moon-room' like in the Abyss where the mini-subs could be lowered into the water, so the indentation that looks like water IS... and it was just above Freezing (they were after all under the Arctic cap) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
