Hello from a newbie

Hi all, new forum member here (from the UK).
I initially stumbled across Goodmans Games DCC line a couple of years ago when I bought a cheap copy of Aerie of the Crow God (I was captivated by the "remember the good old days" byeline). Unfortunately, I let it sit on my bookshelf for a long time before even reading it. However, a couple of months ago I picked up a copy of Saga of the Dragon Cult and devoured all 4 adventures plus the linking booklet. What a great marketing ploy ! $20 and I was hooked.
I am now the proud owner of DCCs 1, 2, 5, 6, 10, 11, 17, 21, 29, 33, and 35 and I am just about to unleash the world of Aereth upon my gaming group of the past 25 years. I can't wait.
One thing that would help me though would be some A4 versions of the maps of Aereth. Does such a thing exist anywhere ? The maps supplied with DCC 35 are a thing of wonder, but they are a little on the large side. I would like to have something a little smaller that can easily be handed round a gaming table for reference (a bit like the map at the back of the Saga of the Dragon Cult booklet, but covering more of the world). I am going to start my campaign in the Empire of Crieste, so if there is an A4 version of that, that would be a good start, although I would love an A4 version of the whole of the Northlands as well.
Anyway, thanks for listening. I suspect you'll be hearing a lot from me over the next few months (although I only get to game every three months, it is for 3 days solid at a time).

P.S. The great thing about the DCC line is that I suspect (not 100% sure yet) that my gaming group and I will stick with 3.5 ed for some time yet. The DCC line will ensure that we never run out of adventures, even if Joseph decides to switch to 4th ed as early as mid 2008.
