SkeletonKey Games Map Tiles - Which ones to buy?

[Olaf the Stout]

Ok, with the big sale going on I have decided to get some SkeletonKey Games PDF map tiles. The trouble is I had a look at the list of products on the RPGNow site and it is huge!

So my question is, for those of you that have some SkeletonKey Games map tiles, what are the best ones to get if you are just starting out and want to cover all of the basics? The only tiles I currently have are the ones that came with my Fiery Dragon Counter Collection Gold tin. I think it is just a few passageway and room tiles. I also have 2 sets of Dungeon tiles from WotC currently sailing over to me from the US. Other than that I have nothing.

So what do I get?

"Basics," is a tricky word, here. I have personally purchased the caves bundle, the sewer tiles, and the FREE fungus caverns, as well as the flooded caves and caves of peril. My next purchase will be the dungeons bundle.

It depends upon whether you intend to keep using/buying them. The Caves bundle includes their normal caves (large) and the wide/narrow caves (larger and smaller). The Sewer chambers and passages are obviously central to one role. All the tiles are great. Caves of Peril is one of the best, giving different elevations through the caverns.

If you are doing basic dungeon crawl, I would get Dungeons I, or the bundle.

I was running Eberron, and may do so in the future, so the Arcane Train may well get purchased.

I don't know if this helps, like you said, it is a large selection. They are, however, much better than the battle mat.
