So as the title says, does anyone know of any large graph paper that is poster map size and falls into that needed 1"x1" grid format, preferrably a lightly colored grid so marker and such show up easier... I was just curious if anyone knew of a product like this.

That was fast. Thanks! Any other suggestions are welcome.

I've been following this product for a little while. Check out their YouTube videos, some are very funny. Has anyone purchased, received, and used these? I'm always looking for new bling for my game room.

The product above looks much better than what I would suggest:

Flip Chart Graph Paper

I have used this kind of paper on the spur pretty happily. Just something handy that you can generally pick up at your local office supply.

The easel-sized flip-pad of 1" graph paper from Office Depot is cheap and IMO perfect for D&D gaming. Once upon a time we used a flexible plastic sheet on top w/erasable markers, but we soon gave up on that and just started drawing right on the paper & we still have plenty left after a couple of years of gaming. Plus we still have all those maps of every dungeon drawn up in playable (ie. 1" grid) scale for future use/reference (which came in very handy when our party took over a castle from a group of vampires - now we live there & can whip out a relevant level's maps as needed, on the fly). I heartily recommend it.

Drawbacks: If you roll the pad up & pop a couple of elastics on it between sessions, it starts to get a curl to it & a couple beer bottles will need to be placed on each end to keep it from wanting to roll up if, like us, you can't be bothered to make sure it gets rolled the opposite way every time. If you just flip your old maps over rather than carefully removing them, it will eventually start to get a bulge at the top end of the pad (see beer bottle solution already mentioned) & the flipped-over maps will gradually begin to take some wear and tear. That's about it.

I expect that if/when we do eventually use up the last of our pad, we'll pick up another ASAP, as it is very easy to deal with and transport, plus there's no messing around with "erasable" inks. It also works well in combination with other terrain accessories - ie. HirstArts plaster walls can quickly and easily be placed on top of the grid to define playable space, as can WorldWorks Games cardstock terrain models, or what have you.

Hmm, buy direct from the source (approximately a 80 miles from me) or probably save a few cents and buy from Paizo and have it shipped over 2,000 miles? Economics are phunny ;) Awesome that you'll be carrying it though Lisa! Way to keep Paizo on top of all that is cool in gaming! (So when will you start making your own GameMastery Tact-Tiles?)

There are all kinds of math education products that work great for rpg games. For instance, I use color counters from my math classes to represent monsters. If you want to stock up on grid paper, this roll would be cheaper than the gaming paper.

Answer hazy, ask again later.

The fact that the answer wasn't never is nice. I will wait patiently for more information.

Same here!

I know I'd definitely jump on a GameMastery Tact-Tile line before it even got to roll its initiative!

FWIW, the owner of the Tact-Tile trademark posts on ENWorld.

Hey Kyle:

I've seen the ENWorld posts. We tried to talk with him in the past, but it didn't work out. We couldn't get the price low enough because he hand makes them himself. To make those types of tiles work for Paizo, they would have to be mass produced in China. Which is why the answer is hazy right now.

Gotta start packing!
