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
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. |
