The grid is of course 1x1". Two dungeon masters use this board. My friend uses "scrubbed" maps from alternate adventures because he doesn't like designing them, I design mine in excel and print them out. Eventually I'll be switching to Dunjinni as i'm demoing it and like it.The finished map product (on letter sized paper) is handed out to one of the players to draw on the white board while the description of the room is being read. Obviously the drawing is done quickly and does not have the same high quality that a designed map does, but after the paper map has been handed out to the players its much easier for them to envision what the stuff on the white board looks like. Also of note, the white board has a background that magnets can megnatize to (ferris?), so that helps if you're using some sort of magnetic piece.The advantages of this are that it uses less paper (I'm a tree hugger), and that things can be edited on the fly using dry erase markers (much easier then wet erase). Not to mention it becomes incredibly handy when you want to take a break and play pictionary! ;-) Cheers!</blockquote>
