All 1-inch tiles have been optimized for 3D printing to require no supports, and have been tested and re-tested with an FDM printer equipped with a 0.3mm nozzle for detail quality and strength. How you use this system is up to you! -If you don't want to use the provided grid, glue pieces of sheet magnet to the backs and make maps on magnetic whiteboards, or your fridge! -Make big maps for your group's world, glue everything down on a board and hang it on the wall! -Make little maps at the table for small campaigns! (Mini maps!) Let everyone grab tiles and build your world cooperatively! -Have adventure hooks prepared for different unique location tiles, let players replace Mystery tiles on your map from a random draw bag maybe, who knows? If you want to make your own tiles, you have my blessing! Suggestion: Print forests, paths, and river tiles in green, then color in the roads and water with a bit of paint, colored tape, or whatever you have available. Mountains in brown, oceans in blue, you get the idea! This was a couple weeks worth of modeling exercise, and I had a lot of fun. I hope some of you manage to have some fun with it as well! I only had gray PLA on hand to print the test tiles out; if you'd like to help me get more colors and encourage me to make more tiles for this system, as well as more D&D minis, consider donating to me through tipping or buying me a coffee! <a href='https://ko-fi.com/O5O1XNEX' target='_blank'><img height='36' style='border:0px;height:36px;' src='https://az743702.vo.msecnd.net/cdn/kofi4.png?v=2' border='0' alt='Buy Me a Coffee at ko-fi.com' /></a> or consider becoming a patron! <a href="https://www.patreon.com/bePatron?u=29383306" data-patreon-widget-type="become-patron-button">Become a Patron!</a><script async src="https://c6.patreon.com/becomePatronButton.bundle.js"></script>
