Introduction
Online Heroscape has taken off, largely thanks to the hard labors of Filthy the Clown, dok, Xorlof, Awesomeunleashed, Kinseth, and Bengi.
What do you play on? Online GoogleDoc maps! Using high-quality photographic pics of the figures. This thread is the central repository for both. It's your one-stop shopping center for online play.
Accessing the Maps and Figures
It's super-easy. Just one step:
Playing on a Board
To make your own playable/editable copy of any of the boards, just open one of them, and select "Make a copy..." from the "File" menu. Populate it with your figures, fire up Filthy's app, and start playing. Of course, you can tweak that copy to your own liking, and save it locally, so you can use your own tweaked version as a template for your own future games.
Sharing your own online map
If you've created an online version of a map not yet included here — or composed one for a map already covered, but that is substantially different — just post it here. All we need is the link to your GoogleDoc. We'll take it from there. Just make sure the main top-down map image is nice and clear, and includes elevation markings. Mark every level (including level 0) with numbers except level 1, which should be left blank. Give us your Google/Gmail address too (in the post, or via PM), if you'd like editing rights to the public copy.

Accessing the Maps and Figures
It's super-easy. Just one step:
- Click on this link to Online HS: MAPS & FIGURES
Done! You can browse the subfolders, view boards and figures, and copy them to play on as you like.
If you'd like to make things easier for you next time, though, just continue with the following easy steps: - Click on the "Google Drive" box at the top left. This will take you to your own Google Drive.
- In the left sidebar, click on "More" to reveal "All items". Click on "All items".
- You should now see (among other things) a folder titled "Online HS: MAPS & FIGURES". Drag it to the left sidebar and drop it on "My Drive".
