I saw your post sitting so long I registered to give you a few pointers on maps. Most if not all the WotC map packs are themed in some way. Originally they were 2" hexes but were changed some time ago. The map packs you mentioned are themed as follows: North Africa - 3 Desert maps and on reverse side 3 jungle maps. Eastern Front - 3 town/factory maps and on the reverse side 3 Russian steppes maps. There are two starters, the one in the cardboard box is the old one and contains 12mm mini’s and 2" hex maps. the new starter is in a blister pack and has 15mm mini’s and 3" hex maps. The maps in the new starter are mixed forest/hills/clear. The rules and revised cards are downloadable through the WotC site.

I got a line on a company that will make me matboard or styrene 3" hexes. I flock them and mount them on 1/2" foam core board. Im thinking of selling them. Just checking if there is any intrest in something like this. The base map will be flocked green hexes. Then individual hexes could be customized with terrain and dropped on the map wherever you want, so you could change the layout between games. what do you all think? Im just trying to get an idea if this is worth it before I buy a custom die.

I think its a neat idea just because I’m a map nut! However I’ve been home build such things already.

Honestly, I have definitely been looking for something like this. But I’m not sure if you’re talking about the same thing as me; could you possibly provide a link that shows the finished product?
