Usually a hex grid though since we played a lot of games that used those and they work well in games that just measures stuff in inches or game scale.Before moving to the East Coast we had purchased a 3 ft. by 5 ft. sheet of glass then slid a paper hex sheet under the glass and left the glass out on our table. The glass only cost about $50 and worked great; ours has lasted over 12 years. Overhead markers erased easily, even if you left the markings on for a couple weeks. Also, the glass is really smooth so you don't get the lumpiness of a regular battlemat. Finally, I could write things like initiative and hit points directly on the table next to me then erase with a paper towel. When I get the space again I'll pick up another one.</blockquote>
