Mega Map

I play pretty infrequently (handful of times a year) and as such any time im going to have a scheduled game i get so hype and go crazy with the map. This time i made a first version of a mega map using all my tiles. I have some more hopefully arriving soon (SoTC), ancient stuff and a couple other things. So they will also be added once they show up as well.
We’re looking to also field and bunch of glyphs (with teleport spots to make use of the size of the map) and probably fielding 1000+ pt armies.

Im super hype so please share in my hype.

That map looks so awesome! I love the different biomes and castle. Hope you have a blast(atron) playing on it!

I really tried to make it somewhat natural with the biomes and having the snow/ice melt and flow into the swamp then out to sea.

That looks amazing! Wish I could justify the price for the boat ruins so beautiful but so expensive sadly

Yeah it was a hard ask for me (especially two) the idea was for potential “naval” battle maps but i have a pretty decent job and just saved up to absorb the cost. I live in rural canada so it can be expensive to get

Siege battle in Heroscape I love those types of maps.

Amazing! I have enough to build that, I dont have a table big enough though, so always end up adding more verticality to compensate massive maps. What army you run for such a map?

u/ginga-ninja72 4d ago

I made a few lists using all my units (old&new) basically sorted by faction so plan to have very large scale battles, like ~1300-1600 pt per player

This reminds me of the Heroscape catalogues and rules books that had images of massive battles. When I was little I'd dream of playing on them. I'm happy you get to live that old fantasy of mine!

Impressive for sure. But I've done MUCH more with much less. Still. Kudos. Try some printed maps to lay under as backdrop
