I know it's being a bit obsessive, but I would love to find a bird's eye view photo or illustration of a coach and horses I can use as a marker, but I can't find anything like it anywhere. I don't suppose anyone has access to such an image..?
Coach and horses image
I'd say splice these images together in photoshop. Maybe add some layer on the horses so they don't look so fake/CG-like
^^ That's a full wagon btw. When you save it it won't be cut in half like that.
Double post since I don't know how to edit my posts.
And thanks for all the work you do on games, UniversalHead
EDIT: I just found out how to edit my posts, hahahah.
Perfect! Thanks very much mate!
Some company should make a nice coach and horse figure; would come in handy for WFRP.
GW make this one. I can recommend it.

There are a couple published maps or tiles that can suffice. I intend to use the wagon and perhaps horse tiles from WotC d&d Dungeon Tiles set Ruins of the Wild to represent the coach when running A Day Late... It is the prefect size to act as sort of a location card allowing stand-ups to be used with it to show who is engaged with the coach. Unfortunatley, Ruins of the Wild is no longer available for purchase unless you find someone selling it for exhorbitant prices.
Another option is to use Paizo's Gamemastery Map Pack, Caravan. Thes tiles are all 5" x 8" in size and the Caravan pack has numerous tiles showing wagons and one for an open coach. I might decide to use one of these instead for the coach in A Day Late. They would also easily allow the use of stand-ups to show those engaged with the coach. These are still available and the Paizo website has preview images of each tile included here:

I happen to own all of the WotC dungeon tiles and Paizo's map tiles so I intend to use both quite a bit as locations in WHFP. I'll just be disregarding the 1" grid on each.
Thanks very much everyone. I'll definitely get that caravan set, and I may pick up that coach model too. These pics worked really well for the game last night!
