02-26-08, 12:04 AM A multiple part question for all of you.

I'm interested in ... letting my party find / discover a custom one of a kind airship that's been missing for years.

First of all, I have some ideas as to the "custom" parts of the airship. But my concern is how do I go about mapping this airship? Is there a program or anything I can use to make a fairly detailed map of the craft?

Once this is complete, how should I go about making an actual map of the craft more permanant? I was thinking of mapping it out on a graph tablet and having it laminated, but are there other options?

I really don't want to map out the craft everytime they're on it.

Finally, are there any pre-made airship maps somewhere? Even user or custom crafts are welcome.
Thanks again.

I just said that the glowing room on the hold level was the elemental binding/shard containment area and it wall all good.
