Looking for a mat
« on: April 10, 2022, 03:07:00 PM »
Looking for an old west mat, with "street"s marked out...

Any ideas or suggestions?

UK or EU

Cheers

Try Tiny Wargames. They have specific western town mats, and can print from your photos or artwork.

Don't know if they have a European or UK source but Cigar Box Battle Mats have at least one: http://cigarboxbattlestore.bigcartel.com/product/town-of-liberty-4x6plus-840

I second the Cigar Box Battle met FifteensAway indicated.  It looks great as a old west town mat!

I’m very pleased with my GeekVillain mat - Tiny Wargames cloth mats are ‘good enough’ but the Geek one is better quality.

Ah I saw those, they do a double sided one, but it's cloth. Do you have the fleece one?

I got the fleece one - very nice. I’m hoping they start offering larger versions of some of their other designs as well - can never have too many terrain cloths 🙂

That’s the downside of GV, they only offer one size - think Tiny do smaller versions (but always handy to have a mat that’s slightly larger than your table are, I think)

Argh, I just had to order the cigar box mat.  I blame you, thebinmann!

Bit late I know, but here's my Tinywargames mat in use.



3x3 vinyl, but other sizes and materials available.
