I want to print it out so I can grid the print and match up my terrain.

Oh, well - I'm sure I'll figure something out.

Thanks

Mmmm... interesting. What wargame are you playing?
The grid you need to use is an hexagonal one?

Ok, It's more suitable for "Call of Cthulhu" game... but I like it anyway. Perhaps a peaceful and misterious house with some fortunate and misterious survivors, always ready to offer their hospitality to any unexpected visitor.

A high-end yacht. Might be better for a Merc campaign than T2k...

Ah...there are things that only exist in the USA! :) The paradise of the aviation fans!!

Well, you don't need to situate the house in the fantastic complex of the link. Instead, a lonely, apparently deserted house with a large, leveled and abandoned area, covered now by high grass can hide the hangar of this map... An old wind indicator could be the only clue that the plain in front of the house worked like an aerodrome.

And, after all, if you put there a conventional single-engine light aircraft, like the Cessna 152, with and air cooled engine, traditional carburetor and ignition by magneto you would have less mechanical complexity than in most of the present-day cars... Nice possibility.

There's a housing plan/suburb near Cleveland Ohio that actually has several hangars like this, and was designed so the main street through it could be closed off for use as a runway. I remember thinking it was a ludicrously awesome idea when I read about it in the newspaper a few years ago. Cleveland Plain Dealer I think...

15mm figures - and I'm kind of going with Battleground Panzergrenadier or Battlefront rules (with option of Command Decision III). The first two have one stand equal a squad or section and one model equal to or three vehicles - CDIII is a step up with each stand representing a platoon.

So Battlefront US Armoured Infantry Company from Normandy would be:

1 Command stand + M3 Half track

9 Infantry stand (3 with bazooka)

3 LMG stands

6 M3 Half tracks

1 57mm AT gun + M3 half track

1 60mm mortar stand + M3 half track

Each stand has between 2 -5 figures depending upon taste. So my German MG42s have gunner, loader and spotter on each stand, while my rifle stands have two or three riflemen with the odd MP40 guy mixed in.

So think Flames of War but with a bit more historical accuracy and complexity and a few less figures on the table.

Marc 03-30-2009 01:30 PM

I used to play Command Decision (I). Well, more commonly I used to refeere Command Decision games... I asked you about the grid you use to translate the map to your representation of the terrain because I could add the grid directly to the Colomby map.

About Flames of War, last week I went with some of my friends to an area of Barcelona with an important concentation of stores devoted to wargames and roleplaying games. We discover that an old, tiny store we used to visit occasionally has been reformed and expanded. A true temple of vice with its own pub inside! Nearly one third of the store was full of "Flames of War" products. It seems that people of "Flames of War" are in a full commercial offensive.

Lots of good floorplans here:http://www.houseplans.com/

Searches for "floorplans" on most search engines will get you lots of neat stuff for games. I've found tons in just the past three weeks.

Trapped in a parking under a collapsed building? Looking for fuel or for spare parts for your vehicles? Or is it improvised shelter in a ruined city? Anyway an old parking with some intact vehicles could be something near a post-apocalyptic treasure trove...;)

This is a town I'm going to use. The map is actually randomly generated in a couple of seconds and then exported to a mapping programme. It's a handy feature because villages and towns can be quickly generated if the pcs stumble into one (for example from a random encounter).

The last one is great. I had been trying to find a good plan of an oil rig by myself, but I didn't manage to get anything "ready to use" in a gaming session.

natehale1971 07-05-2009 05:42 AM

Thank you. I have alot more maps/floorplans around here. I just need to get them uploaded. :)

Looking forward to them. I love maps :D

Has anyone played with Microsoft Visio's floorplan maker? I kinda noticed it yesterday and it seems to have potential.
