Megahex Dry-Erase Boards Survey
 

"We are probably going to create a set of 10.5” x 18” dry-erase boards, folded in the middle, so you can draw scenario maps on them and then re-use them. Of course, they will be printed with the megahex pattern, and the size was picked to geomorph so you can cover a whole table with them if you’re of a mind. We anticipate selling these in packs of 4, direct to gamers only. Price will depend on some decisions that you get to help us make!"

Re: Megahex Dry-Erase Boards Survey
 

I know it is probably out-of-scope for this initial proposal, but transparent megahexes would be a more valuable option for me than blank ones.

Re: Megahex Dry-Erase Boards Survey
 

If these are die cut please follow the same pattern as the current megahexes:

Blank side: Megahexes with a clockwise twist.

Dungeon floor cracks side: No megahexes marked.

Megahexes don't geomorph when flipped example

Re: Megahex Dry-Erase Boards Survey
 

Thanks for doing this; I play with table top MH tiles all the time and so I'm familiar with the strengths and limitations of the materials we have in hand. I gave enthusiastic 'thumbs up' to all options and would spend money on all of the listed options. Not just because I'm a fan boy but because I know I would make use of all those options at the table.

Unfortunately, my votes didn't let me express relative emphasis, so I'll add it here: I think the most important thing is that these mats should have edges (and thicknesses) that let you freely tesselate them with each other and with the MH tiles. I love the rubber mats you've already produced, but the 'limestone caves' are the only ones that have the potential for this sort of free tessellation (and even these are compromised in this way because the physical boundary of the mat doesn't have the hexagonal shape).

Re: Megahex Dry-Erase Boards Survey
 

There is some sort of deep geometrical problem with going from 'labyrinth scale' mapping to 'melee combat scale' maps; i.e., it is generally not possible to perfectly represent a labyrinth scale map (1 hex = 1 MH) into a battle mat without creating distortions in angles and/or occasional gaps. I don't think the problem is solvable, which means you have to consider labyrinth scale maps to be an approximate representation of your battle map. That is fine, and I'm sure many players won't be bothered. But my response to this has been to shift to making my dungeon maps at a true 1:1 scale (1 hex on my map = 1 4-foot hex on the battle map). It is actually easier in some ways, though obviously my megadungeon map set is just incredibly big! Just sheets and sheet and sheets of paper...

These (any and all) will be welcome additions to my TFT toolkit. Keep it coming, SJG!

Re: Megahex Dry-Erase Boards Survey
 

So the boards will fold into 10.5" x 9", pack of four, for under $20. Double-sided?

Re: Megahex Dry-Erase Boards Survey
 

Will they be available in 1" hexes as well as the newer larger scale? I'm not interested in the new, larger scale myself.

Re: Megahex Dry-Erase Boards Survey
 

No. We have no plan to create these in a smaller size than the hexes found in the Legacy Edition and Decks of Destiny.

Re: Megahex Dry-Erase Boards Survey
 

I support that decision; the best way to develop the strength of the line of products we use at the table top is to have new ones re-enforce existing ones by making them mutually consistent.

That is one reason to make sure any of these that have patterns or colors to signify outside spaces, etc., also have a white reverse side that will look good paired with the MH tiles.

Re: Megahex Dry-Erase Boards Survey
 

Yes, having just unboxed the megahexes from the Decks of Destiny box I've been both amazed and impressed by the variety and utility they offer. The fact that I know for sure one side is blank makes creating layouts much simpler.

And for these boards to be really useful for me they have to be compatible with the tiles.

Is there any chance we could see a mockup of what's intended?

Re: Megahex Dry-Erase Boards Survey
 

I like to play in classic scale. I have a 2-sided hex board available in 1" scale. If you send a personal message, I'll give you a link to it.

Re: Megahex Dry-Erase Boards Survey
 

I'll ask the team if they have any images that they can share.
