Just finished up a session and remembered to grab a couple screenshots during play. The characters work for Morgrave University as "acquisitions specialists," and are off on a quest for a particular artifact. However, their contact is missing, they've been attacked by three different factions, and today they stumbled upon a tomb spider and its broodlings, left behind to discourage anyone looking to hard into the disappearance of aforementioned contact.
Used 1.3.b56 for this, and my framework for D&D 4th, as well as Devin Night's tokens and Torstan's awesome map tiles. I modified a couple tokens just slightly to make them match up better with the characters, and created a spider swarm token, and basically, we had a blast. The swarm was a fearsome enemy, but they made short work of the Tomb Spider - teamwork was
rockin', and they hammered it into paste in about 4 rounds.
Here's a shot of the compound:

As always, MapTool was superb, and we had a great time.
