This is almost entirely irrelevant, but it *is* a pretty good picture of
a
cityscape....

I'm working on a gallery for my Destroy All Monsters! game, and I have
the
first picture up.  It's a bit huge, but it's the only one on the page,
and
I'll thumbnail it when I get around to adding others.

The cityscape is 1/300ish, and there are some dimly visible Ogre tanks
and
missile tanks to give it all scale.  I'm going to run a modified DSII
game
on this kind of board eventually; either that or a 1/300th scale
skirmish
game.

And yeah, my souveniers from my trip to New York came in handy. 
Somebody
*always* has to climb the Empire State, for some reason....
