Yes. These are diecut, 1.5mm chipboard pieces you can use to build maps. Hexes the same size as those on the Melee/Wizard boxed game maps.

The playmats are not compatible with the megahexes or paper game maps. The playmats are for those players who want a larger, more elaborate playing surface to use Cardboard Heroes or miniatures.
