Hi everyone,

I've been wargaming since 1990 when friends got me into WH40k and bought my first historical ruleset from the Virgin Megastore in 1995. I'm currently mostly into WWII and Vietnam but dabble in various other things.

However, since the birth of our second son my activities have been mostly confined to the computer and I've been developing my own map drawing application, MappingBoard (http://www.tylermade.co.uk/mappingboard.htm).

MappingBoard is a link but links don't seem to show up too well :-(

It started out as simplified OS or road map style, but I've been adding the ability to make textured maps recently.

That should certainly come in handy for some of the folk around here.

Pleasure to have yah' aboard the good ship LAF. Take your coat off and stay a while. Have some tea, and don't worry, you won't be needing your coat for some time. Of that, I can assure. Drink the tea.
