Description of Hexers RPG Board Mat, Square Grid Terrains (8 Varieties), Compatible With D&D/Pathfinder, 27" X 23", 1" Squares - Foldable & Dry Erase

8 Terrains: The box includes 4 boards with one terrain one each side for a total of 8 terrains: cobblestone/parchment, white/tavern, wasteland/grass, sea/stellar. The boards are 27’’ on 23''. Squares are 1''. 26 x 22 squares. Erasable: Dry erasable pens can be used on the board. We recommend correctable pens for long-lasting outlines and dry erase markers for short term drawings. The dry erase markers can easily be erased with fingers or pieces of cloth: this makes them less suited for long-lasting drawings. Erasing the correctables require the use of the erasing tip or after 3 days the use of a damp cloth or micro cloth. No pens or markers are included. Easy Transport and Storage: The board is foldable and measures 13.5''x11.5''x0.4'' fully folded. The box measures 13.75''x11.75''x 2’’ and can easily fit in a backpack. This leaves some empty space in the provided box that can be filled with dice, miniatures, map tiles, rules, sheets and markers. The drawings can be left on the board when folding. This is convenient for multiple gaming sessions requiring the same terrain. The dry erasable lines can be erased and redrawn for a new adventure. Eye for Design: The box is designed to be placed next to other tabletop game boxes, it is predominantly green and black with a matte finish. The map's borders follow a hellfire theme. A lot of fun: Players are able to see the action in real time. This makes it easier to see what is going on.

Great for d&d! Sturdy!

These are absolutely fantastic. Sturdy, easy to unfold, art/colors are great. Only downside is the box is very heavy. But if that's the only issue it's all good. 😀Warning: there is only one way they fold. Don't force it. If it's not folding properly, open it back up and start again.

Pros
  • Game Mats & Boards
Cons
  • Due to the foldable nature of the mat, cracks and creases may appear over time, compromising the durability of the product

Good heavy boards in my review

These are heavy and wonderful!, the fold easily and I had a lot of fun transporting my players to different terrain that they see. However be mindful when you are folding them back up its easy to tear them when folded the wrong way, but I like these and I'm happy with them

Pros
  • 6.71 pounds
Cons
  • The price of the board is higher than comparable products on the market, making it a less appealing option for budget-conscious gamers

Quality exceeded expectations

These are really nice boards! The graphics are nice and bright. They are nicer then most board game boards, at least a 1/4 inch thick. Would totally recommend these over the roll up laminated grids.

Pros
  • I really enjoy these boards, can use erase markers that well erase good. Recommend highly.
Cons
  • The squares on the Hexers RPG Board Mat are only 1 inch, making it difficult to fit larger miniatures or detailed characters onto the board

Mold in Every Box Ordered

We’ve ordered 3 (maybe 4?) of these now, and each one had mold inside the box with a moldy/mildew scent, so we returned them all. We also received a used/opened box which also had mildew in it.We usually really like this brand but not sure what’s going on with these specific boards. We’re looking for other brands now since we don’t trust the quality of these anymore.

Pros
  • Toys & Games
Cons
  • The board is only compatible with square grid terrains, limiting the types of games that can be played on the mat

Good construction, great patterns

Using this for dnd sessions instead of graph paper with poorly drawn lines has saved a bunch of time in combat, not worrying about where the edge of a 5x5 ft square is. However you can get that with any game mat. I bought this one because they were double sided with various textures that I liked on each side, plus they fold instead of roll so they avoid the problem of it trying to roll back up. I highly recommend this if you like the patterns they offer.

Pros
  • Amazing
Cons
  • The dry erase surface is not as smooth as other whiteboards, making it difficult to erase and redo markings

Up for an adventure?

Using these panels of adventure have helped put stories into perspective. The arrangements on each strip are fascinating.

Pros
  • Well Built, Comes with double-sided maps on 4 different boards.
Cons
  • Although the mat is foldable, it does not stay flat, causing some areas to become warped and unstable

Great Variety in my review

I started using these boards in my group about a month ago and they really help with the immersion. The number of boards they give you to choose from is great and the graphics on the boards are high resolution. Absolutely no regrets on this purchase.

Pros
  • Blueshift US
Cons
  • The artwork on the mat is simplistic and lacks detail compared to other RPG boards, making it less immersive
