He can have one, but can he ride one? If you can explain it, he can have it.

I don't think Malikar would appreciate that.

Haha, since my token looks a lot sillier minimized than I thought it did I'm just going to use that little pixel art one for the time being if that's okay with you Waffle. I'll try and make up a better one pretty soon!

Looks great to me! How did you upload a backgound and the icons? This is super cool!

I used to make maps like these for my groups but I grew weary of the constant updates I was forced to make with Photoshop. So I switched to Google Spreadsheet. I am very much interested in how you created this wondrous play space!

I'm a Photoshopper myself. I modified the background from some maps on DDI. Google drawing lets you import in different layers and allow other to edit it. I've used Flash before and editing the whole thing can be a bit of a grind. My only limitation is my work firewall blocks Google Docs so I can only view/edit from home. Combined with the Combat Tracker Surrealistik put together, it's a fairly compact an informative system.

Maptools is also a great piece of map creating/editing software, which is what I personally use.

Keep in mind that _everyone_ gets a +2 bonus to their initiative rolls due to my Combat Leader class ability.

My character sheet lists it as a two but... I have a 14 DEX, so my Initiative should be a +4. Weird. I shall investigate this error later tonight.

It's fairly healthy, green, and winter time although there is no snow. Blasts and bursts will not cause a fire but sustained zones could be a problem. Keep in mind there are horses on the road. If explosive blasts or bursts get too close to them, they may spook.

For those of you with Monster Knowledge skills (Nature, Arcana, Religion), you may want to use em so we can get some valuable info on these mobs; remember, doing so has no action cost.

Before I go any further, I feel I need to address something. I had hoped it would pass without commenting on it, but it has come to the point where I need to say something before things spiral wildly out of control and I am swallowed up in something far beyond my control and rationality. I can't beat around the bush. The fact is:

Monday SUCKS!

There I said it. It's done. Now, on with the game.
