I'll have to get one, then! They're certainly more affordable than Tact-TilesMark CMG said:[In regardds to the Steel Sqwire Flip-Mat] That's what I have been using and it works just fine. I like being able to just put it in my book bag. I've seen that "forest path" one, too, by them and it looks very nice.
I'll give you detail. Ease of use is debatable, because the system you're using isn't portable (and my group alternates between playing locations). However, speed is the one advantage you don't have over the classic battlemat approach. How long does it take you to make a good-looking map in the NWN toolkit? It takes me fifteen seconds to a minute to scribble the combat area on the battlemat. There's no way you could beat that.Steel_Wind said:Say what you want about any of the alternatives - nothing touches digital tabletop projecton for detail, speed and ease of use in game.
