They should be in scale when printed at 300 DPI. The center square is about an inch I think.

I've started building samples to photograph, you'll have to forgive me for not building every version , Tommygun is prolific with his colour options.  I'm about 1/3 of the way through |

I didn't even realize those were in this Hoard.
The sample pic should give people an idea of what's in it. It does not really need to be a comprehensive catalog. So, yeah, don't kill yourself.

This one is big, 74 pages of sci-fi terrain goodness. A fair chunk of it belongs to Tommygun. Be warned it's 200mb file download. My dropbox account my go overlimit so be patient . No GSD's at this point, I think it's more important to get these layed out and out at the moment. Seem to be more people who can make up GSD's. I was careful during layout to make sure all the "same" components are in the same spots this should mean only 19 GSD files need to be made to cover the 74 pages. If no-one else gets to it before me I'll come back and create them later.  I laid out an SD version and Cameo mark version only download one or the other to save on bandwidth As it's going to take 1-2 hours to upload both and I need sleep . I'll leave my PC on uploading overnight, They should appear at the below URL around 8-9am forum board time: SD Version dl.dropbox.com/u/15349793/Hoards/July%202011%20-%20Forum%20Hoard%2096/Hoard%2096%20%28SD%29.pdfCameo version dl.dropbox.com/u/15349793/Hoards/July%202011%20-%20Forum%20Hoard%2096/Hoard%2096%20%28Cameo%29.pdfIf anyone spots a bug in the pdfs let me know, you'll definitely need to do a save as I suspecting opening in a browser will probably crash or stall it. edit: I need a quicker internet connection....ZZZzzzZZZzzzZZZ edit2: Worked it out 30mins until they are synchronized of to bed for me, I'll double check they work in the morning |

74 pages  No wonder this took so long. Maybe we should cap Hoard size so as not to burn out our volounteers? Good work everyone (but actually I can't download this to look at until next month or I'll go over my limit!) |

My computer is going to have fits downloading a file this big.
If we ever have another huge hoard, would it be possible to break it down into separate parts of 10 to 15 pages?
And, OMG, thank you. This is above and beyond the call of duty.

Glen I checked its size at 150dpi then changed the dpi and rescaled it back tot he same dimension so it should be the right size?
Happy to adjust it if it's to small?
I can look at spliting it into 4 or so chunks just means I'll adjust the contents page.

That Tommygun is a MACHINE!  I don't see why having multiple downloads would be a problem. I for one would rather download just the sets I can use, instead of ALL of them (but that is just me). This looks like it will be the most fun you can have in a hoard! Very nice work everyone, and HATS OFF to Sir Rob for his hard work assembling this Hoard! Thank you all! ;D |

Sorry didn't have much time this morning was running late for work Glen if it helps my test built alien thingy stands 4 inchs tall constructed and looks good on a 2inch base, to small? Changing 1 page is no big hassle now the layouts for the others are done. I'll try and get the split PDFs done up asap Putting it together did take a chunk of time, but if people put the effort in to submit it, I'm happy to spend the time assembling it. Tommygun has a heap of stuff I suspect he was volunteering more for the hoard but I was a little unclear on what was in and what was out . |

Should be bigger (about 8" IIRC--but that's thinking past my mental event horizon), but if it's a problem, don't worry. |

Thanks Glen it's still about half size, my first one was a quarter size. I'll re-adjust (minor change) and re upload. Thanks |
