The river represents freedom of travel—and danger! Depicting a treacherous river bend and surrounding woods, Flip-Mat Classics: River Crossing makes a great set piece for escaping pursuers, holding a bridge, or battling an aquatic beast!
The most-popular Pathfinder Flip-Mats in history return! These fan-favorite maps feature versatile adventure settings—city streets, forests, ships, taverns, and more—and now they're back for a repeat performance. Durable and lavishly detailed, these essential adventure set pieces are sure to bring excitement to your game table for years to come!
A special coating on each Flip-Mat allows you to use wet erase, dry erase, AND permanent markers with ease! Removing permanent ink is easy—simply trace over any permanent mark with a dry erase marker, wait 10 seconds, then wipe off both marks with a dry cloth or paper towel. Each Flip-Mat measures 24" x 30" unfolded, and 8" x 10" folded.
I got to experience a battle firsthand on River Crossing during a Pathfinder Society scenario last week. I learned that giant crocodiles are no match for alchemist bombs, but dwarves and nagajis need to watch out for spiked pit traps! Anyway, this flip-mat has two sides. One side is a straight river crossed by a wooden bridge, with trees on either side of the path leading to and from the bridge. It's a solid design, and surely useful in a wide variety of contexts. The other side depicts a bend in the river with some boulders and a potential (but hazardous) place to ford in the center. Again, pretty useful. My only suggestion is that it would have been nice if one side hadn't been set in a traditional forest--a jungle river, a partially frozen river, or a river in the mountains would have added to the flip-mat's versatility.
GOOD:
This is a very useful map for ambushes.
One side has a 40 feet long and 15 feet wide wood bridge over a straight river, the other has a fallen tree trunk as makeshift bridge over a bending river.
Both sides are surrounded by the same sort of trees that are found on the "Woodlands" flip-mat.
BAD:
Doesn't combine with itself because of different wide rivers.

Glade to see the classic maps continuing. Hope the maps for the Evergreen PFS scenarios get released this summer (Darklands Depp Forest Confirmation wink wink)
Yay! I've been trying to find this map at a reasonable price for a couple of years. After this, I'll only be missing City Square and the Keep flip-mats.

I can have a look at my local shop, if you'd like. They might still have a Keep. PM me if you're interested...
A quick bit of image manipulation with the previews in Paint shows that it's not seamless (you can also see just by looking: bottom of the river on one side is ~4 squares wide, top of the other is ~6 squares) and the trees don't line up.
