Does anyone know if the hex size for Heroscape will also work with Classic Battletech?

Please disregard/delete. After actually doing a search online I found my answer. Thanks for looking.

And what's the answer ?

I want to figure, how to expend the size of my maps, with any ideas (I begin to play, so it's really hard to find tiles, and master set).

I have only 2 masters sets (marro, and underdark), and to extension (The castle, and the bridge).

I see also on the net the they buy flexible maps (like water), the you but on the table, and build terrain on.

thanks

Classic Battletech maps have a smaller, but similar hex size.

This page (http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/208138.page) has a good side-by-side image.

You can find flat maps made to match Heroscape at sites like HouseMouse (http://www.housemousegames.com/letema.html).

Ryuu,

I use a 1 to one ratio for my maps when I use Heroscape to play battletech. This tends to create large play areas, but it is fun. I have found that if you take a typical 1 MS map, it it perfect for Battleforce.

This thread talks about all things Battletech

Miniature Market, another site supporter, also carries the lexan mats. I've ordered from them several times always with great service. Free shipping on orders of $75.00 or more.

With some BftU tiles for asteroids, you could have some sweet Spacescape. :cool:
