I haven't done the math, but do these sizes corelate with metric, or do they not match up at all?

Oh? And how would you draw on such a board?
Well, if I was building a prototype, I'd do one with matte black colors and see if standard Expo non-black pens would write on it, and I'd also investigate the availability (if any) for white dry erase pens (and then, if available, bulk purchases
). I just figured the non-black pens would work fine, but hey, that's why it's an experiment, right?

Without breaking out my slide rule - I think this covers 15mm to 54mm for the most part. For wargaming, it should really fit the bill. As for RPG, some of us old fogies still remember indoor is square/outdoor is hex.

Yeah but on a hex map that players can see, how can they wander off in the wrong direction without noticing?

They're too distracted puzzling over why they can't ever go due east or west.

That's easy! Just rotate the map 90 degrees and off you go.

LOL!
I loved those clear transparencies with the hex grids printed on them that TSR included in some of their boxed campaign settings like the original Ravenloft boxed set for use with the overland maps back in the day.
