Square Hex Maps
So I recently saw a picture of Gloomhaven's map boards. They were nice squares with hexes. They looked perfect.
The thing I don't like about hexes is that they don't conform to natural shapes which makes mapping a Dungeon or whatever difficult. So other than buying a copy of Gloomhaven, does anyone know where one can pick up Dungeon boards with normal shapes that have hexes on them? |

Re: Square Hex Maps
Get a box of sheets for printing overhead transparencies at staples and print clear 1.5 inch hex overlays. Then you can use any maps you want.

Re: Square Hex Maps
Of course I could do that. But that's not what I am looking for. Surely there M St be something out there that fits the bill.

Re: Square Hex Maps
I like using offset squares for hexes in this case. I have a battle mat with this pattern.

Re: Square Hex Maps
Warehouse 23 has two sets of dungeon tiles for GURPS that would work. No megahexes and not 1.5 inches, but...
Here's one of the sets http://www.warehouse23.com/products/...ngeon-floors-1 Last edited by malchidael; 06-01-2019 at 10:03 AM. Reason: Added scale note |

Re: Square Hex Maps
You know. I actually have the physical versions of those from years ago. I just never wanted to cut them up!

Re: Square Hex Maps
I hear that. A couple of years ago, I picked up a sealed cardboard heroes fantasy set, then decided I didn't want it cut up, so I started buying the pdfs, too.
Sadly, I lost that W23 account (don't even remember the email address I used) so I have them carefully backed up :) |

Re: Square Hex Maps
Gaming Paper sells single 1.5" hex sheets. They are blank.
BattleMats does a number of rpg related maps and many of them come with a 1.5" hex option. You need to print them out and they can be found on Drivthrurpg. Hope this helps. |
