They worked for me. Maybe Google "hexes in 4e" or "HeroScape tiles 4e" something like that.

Two things: 1. I have my proctored final for Java on game day at 12:30. Figures. So I'll be late. The test will take 2 hours and I'll be there as soon as it's over (3ish). You don't have to wait for me.
2. Arlin really wants to join the co-op game. I told him I would ask and see what everybody thought. I think RMS and Xombie have met him before, playing minis at my house. I don't care either way; we don't need another player, but one more wouldn't be too many, I don't think. I told him I would ask y'all, so I'm asking.
That is all.

Would like to know what to tell Arlin when he comes over for my Friday game. For the record, I never invited him to play. redshirt and I talk about the co-op game at times, much like we talk about the Friday game with you guys. Arlin is interested and asked if he can play. I told him I'd ask the rest of y'all. I don't want to invite somebody to somebody else's house without prior approval! And porky, by I assume you mean that you'll be there. Rock on. \m/ \m/

I'm indifferent, either way works for me. (I'm easy that way.) We had an open slot, kinda, with the exodus of Will, didn't we?

Everybody done voting, yes? So, two yes (so long as not this week) and two abstain? Okay, I'll tell him he's in. (Actually I guess that's three yes and three abstain if I count me and redshirt's votes.)

Good game, Xombie! I had fun. Not sure what I can suggest, other than to use a little more terrain. You had obstacles (difficult terrain, the columns in the last fight), but I wouldn't mind seeing some cool stuff that we can take advantage of. There are sections in the DMG 1 & 2 about using terrain, might be worth a look-see.
Your encounters were interesting. I was about to suggest more varied critter types (in the soldier, artillery, controller vein), but I got to thinking about it and decided that your encounters were pretty good. In each encounter, you had guys to keep us busy while other guys blasted us from a distance. Nice. And the salamander/beholder thing in the caves was some serious pucker time. Good job! (Unfortunately, it made the boss fight a little underwhelming, but them's the breaks. Happens to me all the time, so I can't criticize.)
Everybody worked well together in the game, which is also good. Didn't seem like we were all running around like chickens with our heads cut off. I like the teamwork aspect of the game; makes me feel awesome when I'm playing that we can work together to beat the crap out of the monsters (and also that I can shine as an individual), and when I DM, I like to see you guys walk through my stuff (so long as you don't walk through it too easily; maybe I should qualify that statement by saying that I like to see you challenged yet victorious because you worked together and did awesome stuff as a group and as individuals, or something).
Only other thing I got is for those few of us that actually DM for the co-op game. I'd really like to see DMs build on what the previous DM had in their game. I know, I know, I'm pretty bad at this, too. I need to work on this. So I'm saying this to all of us, myself included (and myself especially, since I'm bringing it up). There's been some cool shit that could/should be turned into a storyline. And it seems like all of this stuff is just one adventure and then we ignore it. My idea of what this game is and/or should be is that the DM builds upon what the previous DM(s) have already done. You take your impression of their idea and write your adventure incorporating those impressions, or at least that's what I think should be happening. But it seems like nobody wants to step on anybody else's toes. I say stomp em to a bloody mess! A DM's baby is only his baby so long as he's the DM. If you're the DM, you can do to that baby whatever you see fit, so long as it's not "ignore that baby and birth another." There's nothing wrong with birthing another baby, so long as the new baby is related to the other baby.
Uh, maybe my analogy doesn't make any sense. I'll try to explain.
Okay, we have many babies in the co-op game. A few (mostly my babies): Mayor Darkhell (ig's baby), the Coalition (mine), Vecna (Gir's), drow in the Cairngorms (Xombie's), Count Braelast the Undying (mine), the old characters that we aren't playing anymore (many of ours). I'd like to see some of these babies grow up.
Actually, I have an idea. And I hope that redshirt screws up my idea with his next game! (Which will be 8/21, correct?)
As always, please post your character's impressions of the game in the synopsis thread, leave feedback in this one, and give your opinion about the game always. More discussion leads to more fun, imo. Don't be shy!

i had fun, i always do with you guys:)... i think the fights were plenty challenging, since i almost died like 75 times which is far more times than any other game:) (punishment for not being there? i was seriously considering how i was going to make my next guy a few times:)) so bravo Xombie. on a side note, i apologize for the computer... a friend of mine whom i never talk to happened to get on during a break... and i am not the best at stopping mid-conversation, i think i kept my head in the game pretty well... but still sorry about that... im a bit of an ADD multitasker

That should be fine for me. I was afraid it was gonna be 9/4, which is no good for me. 9/18 is fine. (Just remember, I'm not real bright, so you need to put this stuff on the message board so that I can go back and look at it over, and over, and over, and over...)
