Thanks for the feedback.  I have been a Warhammer 40K for nearly 20 years, so I have a ton of minis and terrain pieces.  Bull, I actually use a ton of "found terrain" on my tables.  Juice bottles, Pringles cans, and even my 4 year old's train sets have made their way in to my games.  I have also seen the impressive stuff from Infinity and Antenocitis Workshop.  I have a bucket of Star Wars mins, as well as a huge Heroclix collection to fall back on. 

What about maps?  I have tons of Heroclix and Star Wars maps on hand.  Any thoughts there?

You can always find maps over at RPGnow or you can make your own with Campaign Cartographer 3 if you are so inclined!  ;D

Yup; I have a whole slew of paper maps as well.  Plus I have access to a plotter from time to time, so I can do some bigger things if I need to.

I was fortunate enough to actually get a copy that was unfolded at GenCon last year; it is laminated and ready for hanging when the basement gets finished

I use D and D minis(eww d and d i know) but I like having a grid with glass over it where you draw the map so transitions are wayyyyy easier! But Shadowrun should start making minis! I promise I'd buy up all their hacker figures!!!!  :o <<The face I'd be making every time I see em on my shelf!

Always start and end character creation by asking yourself "why is this character not an ork." If you don't have a good answer you should be an ork. -UmaroVI

@ theKernal

You can actually get minis for Shadowrun from Iron Wind Metals.

They are old...what does that have to do with anything? LOL

You could paint them...that is what a lot of us 'old timers' do with those unpainted miniatures. It might turn into a hobby within a hobby for you!  ;D

You know what John? I think I'll do that! Where can I get paint? Can you put a link to iron wind and a paint place?

As far as paints go you can try Reaper...        http://www.reapermini.com/Paints/pro

At least that is a starting point.
