After playing either on a 4x6 foot game board or bare kitchen tables / card tables, I took it upon myself to make some 1x1 foot encounter placards, well I have started assembling them. Outdoors, Cavern and desert are under way.
http://armoredink.blogspot.com/2010/01/encounter-placards-for-rpg-action.htmlI plan a simple slide in carry case for about 5 or 6 of them when I am done, speaking of which, I hope to have Forest / grassland, Cavern and Desert down by tommorow. I'll post update pics on my site. Lava field, Deep Gorge / Cravase, perhaps a desert Wadi will join the list.
This is all so my adventure players can have more detail on their setting for the smaller encounters.
