Kill Team sized neoprene or PVC mats
« on: July 22, 2019, 06:09:18 AM »
Over the years I've scaled my tabletop games way down to Kill Team size (22x30) playing areas which suit my little coffee table JUST fine. I'm currently trying to find mats in this size, of the vinyl or neoprene variety for space/starfield (no hexes) and a sea mat (no grid or hexes) for Pirates and a space themed CCG.

Anyone point me in the right direction? I've bought from Pworks and Table War in the past, but neither have these mats in the Kill Team size.

Evening B6, been a while since you helped me out on my Nam project. You could try Tinywargames.co.uk they provide a custom service if you want bigger mats so I guess you'll be able to go smaller. Hope this helps
All the Best

Deep Cut Studios do a good range of mats, I don’t recall seeing any this small, but they do custom sizes, and certainly on the bigger mat I ordered from them, the price seemed to be based on the overall square footage of the mat, so ones this size should be pretty cheap.

Glad to be of help, wasn't aware that deepcut do custom. I've got a 6'x4' Old West mat from Deepcut in Mouse pad and would give it a strong recommendation. I only saw Tiny wargames cloth mats at a localish show this last weekend and thought they looked ok. Price compared nearabout with Deepcut tho.

That was my thinking as well.

For the sake of completeness I emailed Pwork to see if they would do custom mats based on their current designs. As an aside, I cannot say enough good things about Pwork. The quality of their mats is amazing and the designs are nice, bright and vibrant. Their customer service is also second to none. Compare this to the experience I had with Table War. Mat graphic was dull, and their customer service was fairly abysmal.

For clarity, I (and a gaming bud) have had custom cloth mats from Deep Cut, but worth an ask on their other materials.

Gamemat.EU sells a pair of double-sided mouse pad Kill Team mats.

Here in the States Frontline Gaming (frontlinegaming.org) has 10 different mouse pads for Kill Team.
https://store.frontlinegaming.org/gaming-mats/flg-mats-30-x-22-kill-team

PWork Wargames (pworkwargames.com) has a selection of Kill Team mats in neoprene or vinyl: click on COMPATIBILITY in the Menu Bar. 18 choices.

Or, I suppose, you could buy a 3'x3' and cut it to shape. ;)
