Highly recommend, use it every week!

Really nice quality. I like it more than the usual mats because it has a glossy finish. You could leave it written on for a year and it would still erase, where other brands will retain writing after a while. My only complaint is that the grid lines are a little thick and dark, so the included markers are somewhat difficult to use. However just get some bigger markers and that isn't a problem at all. Highly recommend, I use it almost every week!

Easy to use and clean

It took me a while to research the best mat for my tabletop sessions. I could not wait to leave the papers behind and move to something more user and eco friendly. I took the game to a higher level with the Battle Grid Game Mat. I would like also to thanks Jennifer Loch from Envolve Skins. She was very concerned if her product matched my expectations from the start. Great product and superb consumer relationship.

Perfect for my purposes

This is a great add-on to a D&D campaign. I really like being able to draw several maps for a given quest before even sitting down due to the shear size of the object. It is a 22x32 grid of squares (maybe +/- 1), which is also a whiteboard. The included markers work effectively (despite what others have claimed) and they each come with their own eraser. This allows me to have each of my PCs have one color to indicate their square, make their movement phase by counting and quickly erasing and marking their ending location. Not so much to complain about except perhaps a yearning to have some miniatures to accompany such a great map. I can't wait to work a giant battlefield into the campaign to use the whole thing for a single encounter.

it's pretty cool. ) I would not use the markers ...

This is a large sized grid which works very well for gaming nights. I use it for D&D therapy at work (yup I get paid to play D&D as therapy, it's pretty cool.) I would not use the markers that come with it as they are hard to wash off, but a simple set of dry erase markers work great. I just wipe it off after each game and if the dry erase has set for a day or more some windex cleans it up with no residue. All in all I would buy it again. if you have truly epic sized maps you could buy two of these and it would probably suit your needs.

I wasn't sure how well it was going to work out, but then...

It works fabulously. The only reason you wouldn't buy this mat is because you either A) need a hexagonal map instead or B) don't want to wipe it down/clean it thoroughly after each use. They literally include directions on how to care for it (turns out it's pretty accurate). If you don't do a wet wipe down after your session, you will definitely see faint lines from previous drawings, but it's still not enough to detract from game play...as my players don't ever notice them. Absolutely stand behind my purchase and if this one wears out, I'll likely buy the same one again.

Excellent Battle Map!

So I have purchased several battle maps over the last few weeks. The Chessex Role Playing mat of the same size, and a much larger map produced by WizDice. I won't go into a full review of those mats but I mention them because this mat has one MAJOR pro over them. it is an actual DRY erase marker map. I was excited to get the Chessex mat but when it came, i did a dry erase test on it with high quality dry erase markers and it stained the map, not bad but you could still see the black shadow despite how much I cleaned it. Wet erase markers worked great on it. The same thing with the WizDice mat, Dry erase gives it problems but the wet erase works great. This Battle Grid map though works perfect with dry and wet erase markers. It has a very thick laminate over the map with a high gloss finish which will allow you to remove dry erase marker just as if you were writing on a white board. It is also a very good looking mat with the compass rose being a nice touch so direction can be added for your players. The only real con with this map is its construction material. What I mean by that is with other mats I have tested, they can all roll very easily, WizDice maps are made from a single vinyl sheet, allowing for easy roll. Chessex is made from vinyl also but a much stiffer construction, still allowing roll. This Battle Grid map CAN roll but it also appears made from a plastic sheeting or something, it can be rolled but it is very stiff and unrolling it you would need to place something heavy over the edges to flatten it out before use. I put heavy books on all 4 corners overnight, and the next morning it was perfectly flat and felt really good. I do not think I will ever roll it again, instead I will store it in a poster frame and hang it on the wall, just removing it for play when needed. Overall I like this mat best over all of the mats I have used. It can take on all markers and cleans the easiest. It is the best looking visually of all the maps and it is a very solid constructed mat that should last a long time. Like I said the only con to this mat is rolling. You can roll it back up for storage but I personally would not.

Clean and Nice

I recently hosted a DnD session with my siblings/friends and THIS turned out to be a perfect/simple way or displaying the field of battle, the campsites, the collections of enemies, the village community and so on! It not only provided a good mat for such things but cleaned up pretty well too. I barely see some faded lines from the green, red and blue. The black came off alright. :) I would recommend this for anyone looking for a simple/cheap way to illustrate and show what they have in mind for landscapes/sites in their DnD sessions. This was well worth the buy! Thank you, Melee Mats!

Perfect For DnD!!

As someone who has recently started being a Game Master for my group in DnD, I love this product!! I used this a few nights ago for a session and it was great to have the players visualize the town I drew, as well as combat areas such as, forests, caves or even dungeons. Like the description says, they provide you with dry erase markers that have an eraser tip that activates when dipped in water, but you don't necessarily need the eraser tip if you use a spray bottle for water and a couple of paper towels. (it's an easier way to erase the marks you made on the board than having to use the tiny eraser tip.). My only issue with the product is that they send it to you rolled up rather than folded. Being someone who like space management, I like things that fit into my backpack instead of having to lug around a rolled up game mat. I'm sure some people wouldn't mind carrying it around, but that's just me. When you do roll out the mat for the first time it is a little challenging to make it stay flat, so I recommend putting things that are heavy on each of the corners to make it stay flat. Since I folded it, I don't have this problem, but be in mind that when you do fold it you are going to get creases in the game mat, which won't make it look nice. (Some parts of the game mat will be higher than others, I don't mind this.). All in all this product is perfect if you're on a low budget and need something to help bring your DnD world to life! Pros: - Perfect for a Game Master on a low budget. - Can draw anything on the game mat from towns to dungeons - Can use it for other tabletop games, not just DnD! - Dry erase markers are provided Cons: - Space management is a problem, when on the go. - Erasing with the eraser on the marker is time consuming. - Because it's laminated, when it folds it leaves creases. (not a major problem for me) - needs heavy objects just to keep it from rolling back up and to lay it flat.

and easy to put away when we needed to use our ...

Our gaming group has saved the world from zombies, has smuggled and smooth-talked our way through a galaxy far, far away, and now we are starting a quest with an adventurers’ guild in search of (in my Gnome Artificer’s case) rare magical artifacts to poke, prod, and tinker. We wanted to find a mat that was dry or wet erase, would cover the majority of the table, and easy to put away when we needed to use our table for table-y things. I wanted something that wasn’t dull and uninteresting, and had some character to it. This map was all of these things, plus a bonus compass printed on. It’s going to be a great addition to our game nights when we bust out the character sheets.

The curl was also easily remedied by leaving a wine bottle on each corner ...

I got my mat a few days ago and I have to say I have no idea what a lot of other reviewers have been talking about. Some mentioned that the mat is basically just a sheet of “laminated paper,” which is absolutely not the case. The mat is made of a thick plastic (vinyl?) material that makes it durable, water resistant, and basically impossible to damage through normal use, from what I can tell. The markers also draw and erase well if used properly (some people mentioned difficulty erasing, but they likely didn’t wet the erasers) and the lines are not “too thick” for the black marker to be obviously visible. The curl was also easily remedied by leaving a wine bottle on each corner overnight with the mat spread across the floor. I’m super excited to use it for the D&D campaign I’m running. The only downside is that although it’s quite big, I regret not getting the larger size because some of the dungeons I’m making require a bit more space than the 3 foot mat has. It was expensive, but I’m certain I’ll get enough use out of it to make up for it.
