Legendsmiths Posted December 13, 2004 Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 Re: Fantasy Web Resources For maps & mapping utilities you need: MapX A great free mapping tool. The author is currently putting out a new version called DewMap, but the current version of MapX can still be downloaded. Dundjinni Not only a great mapping tool, but the user forums have tons of maps/adventures posted. OpenOffice.org This great office sweet has a drawing program that is very adept at making maps. Layering, transparency, and clip-art are all supported. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randi Posted January 21, 2005 Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 Fantasy Hero ship stats? Does anyone have any links to Hero System stats for boats or ships? e.g BODY, DEF, Movement, etc., that more or less mimic medieval timeframe real-life ships? Deck plans would be great, but one of my players is more interested in the stats for designing such vehicles for use in my Fantasy Hero game on HeroCentral.net.
