Re: Game Mats
It does look fantastic when it's on the flat and I would definitely recommend it if you normally put all your hills, etc. on top. Here's what it looks like when it's draped over terrain, although note that I'd weighted it down with rocks and pinned it down with needle-'based' trees:

I was thinking about washing it to soften the fabric, but don't know how colourfast it is. Does anyone know?

Re: Game Mats
Here are some more games where the Tiny cloth is draped over hills. See what you think:

Re: Game Mats
As always, it depends on size.
I've got a Tiny neoprene mat and with some gentle hills I think it looks better than the cloth:
But that's only for gentle rises, for anything else I use drop-ons.

Re: Game Mats
It looks great - time for a new desert project. Sand Dwarves ?
Yes I agree the Cigar Box dimensions are better I agree and I also prefer their designs. But effectively they are priced out of the UK market now I fear.

We should be fully unpacked this weekend, so hopefully soon. Need to repaint the room and get all my pictures up (those aren’t pictures on the Purps sense of the word)

Re: Game Mats
That's a splendid table, Jezza. Enjoy.
I made my own green cloths from old army blankets. It's taken a bit of experimentation, but I'm happy with the results thus far.
