Shit man, I completely forgot about this in the Finals Week haze.  I'm still up for showing up next week though, I shouldn't have anything to do then. 

As for assets, I dunno how everyone else is but don't strain yourself looking for stuff like that, when I DM games on maptool 90% of it is just flat-color diagrams using the basic assets, there's no reason to get super fancy.  It's imaginationland.  I've tried to be superfancy before and it's easy to get bogged down in stuff like that.

What basic assets? With roll20, you start with no assets then go get some from the library(Where almost everything costs cash) or upload your own. The few free assets there are are for middle ages sorts of things.

Yes they do, but you cant really do that for tokens.

I dunno about everybody else but I'd be cool with just letter tokens.   The important part is the game, not the visuals, and like I said it's very easy for these kinds of problems to become overbearing.  When I was younger and dumber I had a few games fall apart in the planning stages cause I didn't like the assets I was making.  That's an extreme example and something I got over but still.

One that stands out clearest in my mind was I was wanting to make a Hundred Goblin Winter campaign for Legend of the Five Rings and I ended up scrapping it cause I couldn't put together a good enough map for the campaign area.

 Well, some news. One map is more-or-less complete, and another is in a similar state. I am going to be working on getting some basic assets, including generic imperial guard units and generic basic baddies, along with some vehicles. We also have three pubbies who have joined, and I suggest that Cthulhu jumps onto the thing soon so that his place is locked in.

Also, atleast two of the pubbies GM their own games, so thats good for me. Hopefully.

Also, the use of hotline miami sprites has falen through, due to my realizing that they are a tad bit too small. Well, hell.

Just use tokens with the character's initials on them. Like cfoofoo said, we don't really need amazing visuals when we have imagination.

Oh, it appears that I was incorrect about how regimental favored crap works, so Cthulhu, you may want to change some gear.

Regimental favored weaponry is:
Basic : Tegh Pattern Sniper Rifle
Heavy: AchillanMkIII “Tread Fether” Missile Tube

Do you guys have all the rule book expansions? If not, there are some wickedly fun things in them. #TaurosVenator

I've got Enemies of the Imperium, Hammer of the Emperor, and Shield of Humanity. I know some of the regimental stuff draws from at least one of those books. Are there more expansions than those?

nothing good, those are the primary and the best. The rest are mostly pre-made adventures.

I think that there where three adventure books, a pair of supplementary rulebooks, a creature book, and the basic. I am only missing two of the adventure books, although the one I have for Shield is a rather bad copy.
