Anyone have any thoughts about changing the general map scheme to better facilitate movement in the game? Green Ronin's Advanced Gamemaster's Guide offers two alternatives to the standard grid: A hex map and a map of staggered squares. Either one eliminates having to count every other square as 10ft. Perhaps one of these would be something to add to the Pathfinder RPG.
Just a thought...
I agree. The grid seems to cumbersome. In fact, truth be told, I have used a hex battle mat for almost twenty years. Hexes just seem to flow better than squares when it comes to movement. The only ease a grid map allows is the mapping itself. However, since we all play in the digital age, unassisted mapping seems a bygone art. Many people have numerous cartagrapher programs to assist them in mapping on hexes if needed. Therefore, I would like to see at least a sidebar for those who want to play Pathfinder with hexes instead of squares.
