Void Star Studios has just launched the Tact-Tiles Kickstarter (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/804836187/tact-tiles-modular-wet-and-dry-erase-gaming-surfac).
QuoteThe original modular, expandable, versatile, wet and dry erase gaming surface for miniatures and role-playing games.
Tact-Tiles are highly portable, rigid, thick plastic, wet and dry-erase, gaming tiles. No more erasing the mat and starting over when the PCs run off the edge! And no more fussing with a rolled up mat!
The new run of Tact-Tiles are 100% compatible with the original Tact-Tiles from BC Products.
Each tile measures 10.5"x10.5"x.125", and weighs about 9 oz. And unlike the original Tact-Tiles, the new design is both dry and wet erase.
If you are a gamer who uses miniatures, or just in need of a good portable dry-erase and wet erase solution, Tact-Tiles will provide you with the best solution for a play surface.
Unfortunately, shipping for outside the U.S. is a... tad on the expensive side. Just advertising this Kickstarter 'cause the original has been out-of-print for a long time, and I'd like this over a Chessex battlemat. :P
$21K raised in the first day, nice.
At the $34K mark, so more than 37% there. :P Supposedly, an add-on for more tiles will be added later today.
I wasn't going to post in this thread anymore since it already looks like I'm talking to myself :P, but... Some Canadian pledge tiers have just been added to the Kickstarter for any Canadians interested.
Four days remaining, with $13K to go to reach the goal.
Has anyone used these?
How are they superior to a battlemat / vinyl grid map?
