Its just that we have such a wide range of terrain sets that they do tend to bounce around between beginner and intermediate levels (depending on what they are and how they function). Bread and butter terrain sets (Dungeons, Caves) are generally pretty easy to build. Most modelsets we offer are beginner level friendly.Pricepoint: Indeed, our prices are marginally higher than some of our competitors but there are two key reasons for that. The biggest defining factor here is the sheer number of items contained in larger terrain sets. It isn't just tiles & walls but a dense compilation of props and related dressings. Just take a cruise through product descriptions and you'll get a sense of what's included. The other big X-factor here is development. A typical terrain setting is a full-time, 3 month investment, to infuse each set with an almost obsessive level of detail. Each texture is built from scratch and there are many situations where more than one person is involved with production. That said, we do recognize that some people want more of a smorgasbord, pick & choose purchase option (we're working on that one <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> ). Modularity Standards: You generally see many different modularity standards in our catalog. That's a consequence of being in the market for nearly 8 years and breaking new ground each consecutive year. This isn't to brag but to point out the reasons we have so much diversity in our catalog. Overall though, dimensionally, everything is compatible with everything else. In fact most of our products offer both 1" and 1.5" compatibility. We've definitely tapered off in the last few years though to a more consistent build standard. And we aren't done breaking new ground yet <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />If you're looking for a good place to start I would recommend the following:For 2-D tile lovers DungeonLinX is the set to get your feet wet.
