I made a map for my new Pike and Shot campaign. I detailed my approach with a blog post. link

Well done and some great ideas there. At first I thought it was a new kind of mapmaking software!

aegiscg47,
Sorry, it is the oldest software instead! Except for the classic drawing in the sand with a finger method ;)

I am a bit of a nerd and enjoy this sort of creation a great deal

Awesome!
If you paint such map on magnetic sheet, you may use this as decoration on wall, with troops, based on metal sheets, on them.

I have posted the background of my campaign on my blog; link

Sho Boki, of course I didn't think of that in advance! It certainly would have helped the bookkeeping

This is really a breakthrough. Going directly from input device to printout without going through a computer is really revolutionary.

Your results are fantastic. Thanks for posting them.

Brilliant mix of media! Too bad you did not cross-post this to the fantasy RPG forum… Very useful techniques for GM's of RPG's. Cheers!
