I'm curious to see how it goes, though. I grew up playing without a battlemat and never even tried play with minis until a few years ago when I joined a new gaming group, so matless play comes naturally to me.I've been toying with the idea of a kind of halfway form - playing with minis but without a grid. I'd sketch out the encounter map on a non-gridded whiteboard, and tell everyone to just eyeball distances and AoEs. Seems like that would provide the clarity of positioning that the battlemat offers, but reduce the "board-gameyness."</blockquote>
