I can't say that I've ever used such a style of map personally, but I've certainly seen it demonstrated. If time, patience and skill allows, I might be able to make a version of the map that includes a larger hex overlay, but I can't promise anything. It will definately be added to the slew of potential projects for the coming year, but after there is a lot on the pile before it.Michael Curtishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13217338828086458862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4727301007280965202.post-18986201359831615112009-01-08T15:37:00.000-05:002009-01-08T15:37:00.000-05:00Nice work Mike!

Is there any chance you'd be able to produce a version of this sheet with larger hexes superimposed (grouped by 6- small-hex hexes), then grouping 6 of those larger hexes into "campaign map" sized hexes? <BR/><BR/>I find those kinds of sheets very useful for blowing up the level of detail on large 5 or 30 mile campaign hexes!<BR/><BR/>Allan.grodoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11800184312511280050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4727301007280965202.post-41631407935945374872008-12-31T12:13:00.000-05:002008-12-31T12:13:00.000-05:00Merry Christmas to me!Thanks for that wonderful em...Merry Christmas to me!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for that wonderful empty piece of potential.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13973301663176412762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4727301007280965202.post-87739102343483894242008-12-30T20:11:00.000-05:002008-12-30T20:11:00.000-05:00Crap, I fat fingered that link.
