My sister. She plotted it out in her boss's's's office with his kind allowing her to do it. I have yet to glue it to something, but basically you need an office with a plotter and someone who works there that says "I'll do it".

Sorry, to hijack a thread! Does anyone have a suggestion on where to get a board - the double passage one above - made?

That makes sense, we read a bunch of stuff about how the double wide halls "fixed" all kinds of play and combat "limitations", but in the end I wanted to stick to to NA version if the board I was used to and that matched all the quest books already here to download.

Here's my shop'd version:

I forgot to post this last time too: Here's my legend for how I cut up the board.

I was trying for the fewest number of pieces that could still fit on a single printed page (the long halls barely fit).

The miniatures I used are print and play guys made by tacoma_boy over at boardgamegeeks.com: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/filepage/79816/hq-paper-minis

My buddy found the image of the board I used, so unfortunately I can't give proper credit where it is deserved. But if you're interested here it is:

Holy crap, this is AWESOME!!

Do you have links to the resources you used? From what I've gathered, you got the doors from here and you got did the tiles from a photo/scan of an original board. Where are the "miniatures" from?

@chaoticprime : Where can I find these tiles you uploaded?

I have seen your room images and they are BOSS. Unfortunately for me I found them after I made my tiles. Go figure. I used a hi-rez image of the board Big Guy found for me that I cut up in GIMP and printed it at home.

Loved your work with the playing field and everyone else!!!

I wish I had your ability and tools to cut out those tile bases. I have to settle for materials of lesser quality that I had to cut out by hand. Did you use my tiles that I posted up here? Nothing imprecise about those guys--I shopped them up real good.

Also, you can buy an inexpensive corner-cutter from Wal-Mart to use on your cards.
