PDF: Untagged Maps
Fat Ogre,

Goblyn avatar

I use ScreenMonkey for non-d20 games and Fantasy Grounds for my d20 games.

Most, if not all, Virtual Tabletop (VT) tools have some sort of "fog of war" where you, as a player cannot see the entire map.

Examples
DM View

Player View

Combine with Skype and it's almost like you're there.

If any Paizo person would like to see this in action just email me at fatogre@fatogre.net. All you need is a web-browser, a microphone, a free Skype account and a little time.

I plan on running games for Pathfinder as an example in this thread on Fantasy Grounds

I've just acquired my site Ordo Arcanum and it will be a secret society set in Varisia (i.e. an affiliation from PHB II).

It's just the logo for now but in the next two weeks or so I'll be adding character blogs, downloads including maps, and more.

I really like the art - it's putting me in the mood for some gaming - and I'm 37.

I actually am a Caldwell fan - who's model is also very cute - Slightly NSFW pic at the bottom -

Pathfinder: Why OGL instead of d20?
Fat Ogre,

After seeing some of the product line coming out for the GameMastery line it hit me like a ton of bricks. The previous WotC/Paizo agreement allowed them to use non-SRD material. As of now they are limited to using what ever is in the SRD (pardon my obviousness but I just received a shipment of books today PHBII, Spell Compendium and Magic Item Compendium and went immediately to the front of the book where it states that no Open Content is in these books).

I expect that the GameMastery books like Gazeteers and the Pathfinder material itself will shore this up in future. I have no problem with these products being OGL as the creativity coming out of Paizo these days is amazing.
