I wish I could say that for some of the other PF Tales books, which turned out to be good, but just took a hundred pages or so to really get me invested. (Still trying to finish the "Queen of Thorns"... ugh, and I LIKE Radovan and Jegare) I like the Gunslinger class, so seeing it in action was fun. Eagerly awaiting more from this author... hopefully another sequel. As another reviewer pointed out, it started a little slow, but definitely picked up quickly. Very enjoyable. Went straight to Master of Devils when I finished this one. I really enjoyed this book. We've only play tested 3 combats so far, just to get a feel for the mechanics, but seems promising.
This is the crowning piece of $#!¥ of the whole DDM line. A horrible sculpt that is horribly out of scale with anything else in the line. This dwarf is so big (and ugly) that is is pretty much unusable. A great Inn tactical map. No folds, sturdy, vinyl, wet erasable. Art is from the 4th Ed version of the Village of Hommlet module. I love it. Prefer the rolled vinyl to the folded flip-mats. This is a classic encounter area. How many times is there a battle of one kind or another along the road between towns? This is the same map that has been printed in various D&D products a number of times (probably because of it's great utility) however, unlike the flimsy, folded, paper versions... This map comes rolled and printed on sturdy vinyl. No folds, no rips to worry about. This map is STURDY and wet erasable. i highly recommend all the tactical maps in GF9's D&D collection. I have just about all of the GF9 D&D vinyl game mats (I skipped the ones that are world maps and city maps). These are very nice for big encounters. Some of the maps in this series may be a little bit too situational, but this Cavern on is VERY reusable. All the miniatures in this line are fantastic! They are to scale with both Pathfinder Battles and D&D Miniatures. Quality material, nice sculpts, and great pain jobs. I love them. I only wish there were more to choose from. This one is perfect for Evard's Black Tentacles spell or any other Shadow magic. All the miniatures in this line are fantastic! They are to scale with both Pathfinder Battles and D&D Miniatures.

This is what the Flip-mat line is all about! Two perfect locations, beautifully rendered. More of this please. Less of the big multi-room labyrinths that I can only use one small cramped room at a time (here's a hint, you have map-packs that are smaller and would fit that style perfectly.) I did notice that the thickness is still down (same as Thornkeep flip-mat), and noted, as did the previous review, that the grid is diagonal as you cross the bridge, but not that big of a deal. Buy this one, and any more like them! We played this for the first time a few days ago, and man, what a great game! My only complaint is that it ended too soon.
I really love this game. The miniatures are beautiful, the production of the bits and pieces is high. You might want to pick up 2 started sets for serious play, as you will need more dice, and a second set of movement tiles and range ruler will make things go faster.
The most inexcusable thing about this pack is that 3 out of the 4 maps have the "Paizo" logo or some other text printed over the art work for some of the rooms and hallways.(!!!) Just look at the sample images. If I want to use those corner rooms/hallway, I have to have a logo spoiling the whole purpose of the map. It could have VERY easily been avoided by moving the logo to another part of the map with a larger black border, and yes, there is plenty of room for that on the offending maps. See for yourself. You get a beautifully rendered Town Square AND city wall Gate House. Two VERY common and usefully encounter locations. PLUS (!!)... it ties in to the ROTRL campaign AP. You can't go wrong with this map! This is not only rooftops, but adjacent alleyways and city scenes. This is perfect for backstreet alley chases at ground level AND rooftop action as well. 100% customizable and modular.
