The cheapest are probably the PDF-based ones from companies like WorldWorks and Microtactix, though I can't say for certain.Personally, I think MasterMaze looks great because the pieces are sculpted, rather than flat and textured, making them look the most "realistic". But what I've seen of the PDF scenery is pretty impressive, particularly the WorldWorks stuff. My one big beef with MasterMaze is that the pieces have little "chunks" taken out of the edges for bow-tie connectors, to keep the pieces from sliding around. But I never use them, so they detract slightly from the look.Further answers are based on MasterMaze (MM), since I don't have experience with the other products (non-electronic or PDF).You can with MM, though you need to use pieces of the same height for the risers (or the pillar pieces).It can be, depending on how constricted the layout is, but I generally don't run into any problems. If you're sitting far away and the walls block your view, yes (this would be the case with any 3D product). But if you're close enough to the scenery/figures, no.Depends on the pieces. Large 3D buildings would get in the way just as much as walls. Trees, fences, etc. - probably not.While counters and a grid (or a Chessex battlemat) would be quicker, we prefer regular figures and MasterMaze for the visuals. It helps with some elements as well (making line-of-sight easier to discern, for instance).</blockquote>
