First, you have the Battle Map module(s) that give rules and advice for handling combat on a grid or hex, with some templates for spell effects, movement, and the like. Because sometimes you just want to know where everyone is or break out the Dungeon Tiles/ Dwarven Forge. But you don't want to go full tactical. Then there's the Tactical module that expands on the Map Module with facing, flanking, more granular movement, combat maneuvers, and the like. But having it separate means you can still go Theater of the Mind while still breaking out the at-will maneuvers and greater options. This gives you some great flexibility in the game. For the set piece fights you can have maps, but for the simple fights or spontaneous encounters you can stick with Theater of the Mind.</blockquote>
