I have downloaded several nifty little graph generators over the years but these sheets seem to be more than good enough.
I checked it more closely and found you can generate sheets in many sizes, not just 8 1/2 by 11.

Thanks, there are some sizes that are PERFECT for what I have been painstakingly drawing by hand.

Thanks for the link, this may come in handy in the future (even though I tend not to use maps).

Its been a month and I thought I should bump it for the good of the general public.

Is it appropriate asking for your own thread to be stickied?

I just realized this has been stickied for over two years with no comments!
I suppose folks must really love it for it to be stuck here so long.

Hmmmmm, but this doesnt have nearly as many views as the other sticky threads.

We've all already created our paper files and just re-print as needed. :)

This is one of those "bookmark it the first time you visit" threads, not a lot of repeat traffic unlike the character sheet sticky.

Awesomeness! My accounting class has been kicking my butt and I just realized this site also has accounting ledgers.
Life is so wonderful. Good thing that Shorty Lickens fella posted this link for us!

This is a good find. I'll remember it for later when we need more paper for the homebrew games.

Sorry, I didnt want this to go one whole year without a post.
Am kind of a jerk like that.

Please note they also have some other tools there now, like calenders and mailing labels.

I've actually created a Hex Map in Adobe Illustrator.
- All the Hex's are discrete polygons.
- Cal fill the polygons with any colour to denote terrain etc. Working on creating brushes for paths/roads as well as symbols for the polygons that will represent terrain
- In the mean time all the hexes are grouped and layers according to their row.
- There is also index/grid to reference cells

Should I post what I ave to date?

BUMP!


Free Windows utilities. MapMage doesnt have them anymore. They are exclusively iPhone. Which is lame, but whatever.

These are mostly for AD&D 2nd, but with a little imagination can be used with any system.
They all work find in Windows XP and Win 7. Thats all I know.
