Re: FT:hex grid, Wave Guns

Sounds like it was a lot of fun.

So the hexs were big.	Thanks for the info.

I recently ran into a free program on the web that prints out various
forms of
graph paper.  It does squares, beehive (hexagons), music paper, and
several
types of scientific graph papers.  I used it to make a large nine sheet
5/8" hex
map.
