Suggestion for Map Software
I have my collection sorted by hex size and color. When I'm preparing maps for a tournament I print out the maps from the file section and count all the pieces used to make that particular map. Then I have XXXLarge Ziplock bags, one for each copy of the map, and I look at my part list and grab so many green 7-hexers and put them in bag 1, repeat for bag 2 and maybe even bag 3. Repeat for each of the different parts.
What would be wonderfully helpful is if the pdfs of the maps could include a parts list. Saying what sets are necessary is nice, and a great way to know whether or not I'm capable of producing the number of potential maps at a glance, but this parts list idea would be even more of a help, especially since I've shorted myself on more than one occasion. Environmentalists make great compost. |

Re: Suggestion for Map Software
Heck, I love the idea just to make getting a map set up quickly. My kids love to help, and I could just have them start out by picking out the pieces that we'd need.

ej, I'm not sure if you've checked out my Battlefield Repository thread, but one of the things I was going to do for those Heroscapers like you and me, was give a Tile Tally for each map I had links to in the Repository. I'll keep an eye out on this thread and see how many people actually use this same technique when they build battlefields, and if the idea is popular enough, I'll re-implement the Tile Tally for each battlefield I breakdown and list. |

Re: Suggestion for Map Software
I agree with everybody else - definitely would be beneficial to have the tile count printed with the PDF directions

Re: Suggestion for Map Software
In LandScape, there was a check box labled "Include Complete Tile List" on the print page.
A couple other check boxes on the page were "Include Calculated Sets Used" and "List Sets Specified When Created". Any or all of this information could be included on the final build instructions. |
