[QUOTE="Morrus, post: 7884637, member: 1"] This dropped through my letterbox yesterday, kindly sent to me by the publisher -- [URL='https://lokebattlemats.com']Loke Battlemaps'[/URL] latest creation, [B]The Dungeon Book of Battlemaps![/B] I am a massive fan of their Giant Books of Fantasy, Sci-fi, and Cyberpunk Battlemaps, which are enormous spiral-bound tomes which can be opened up and laid flat. This one is a more modular approach to the same concept. I thought I'd show a few photos.[prbreak][/prbreak] [ATTACH type="full" alt="2F6E4850-E316-44BE-9164-00699BF77520.jpeg"]117162[/ATTACH] Here's the set -- two books (Volume 1 and Volume 2) each containing 40 maps. A smaller book containing 40 pages of corridors, stairs, jail cells, and other smaller areas, and several sheets of re-useable scenery and furniture which can easily be stuck on and peeled off. Here's some example of the interior of the large books. As you can see, you can open them out just like the Giant Books of Battlemaps to lay them flat on the table in order to make a larger map. With the two books, you can choose to lay them next to each other to make even larger maps. They're generally fairly modular, so you can pick and choose.
