## Description

Chessex Role Playing Play Mat: Battlemat Double-Sided Reversible Mat for RPGs.

Review: New DM or GM? Don't know what's worth your money? - A perfect companion for all your RPG needs. I am a relatively new 'dungeon/game master.' As such it can be hard to know what is necessary, helpful, luxury, negligible, or 'more trouble than it's worth.' And of course, some of that boils down to play style or even ruleset. Well, I decided to go in for the battlemat, and I've never looked back. Now, it's by no means "necessary," but I would place this squarely in the "helpful" category... or maybe an "extremely helpful" category. Sure exploration can happen in the world of the mind, interacting with NPC's, even dungeon delving... but if you're drawing up complex encounters then you're going to be writing stuff down *somewhere.* Some people opt for a notebook/paper. I understand that...you'll have it to recollect things, but if you have a full party and you're facing off against more than one enemy, and if there's any sort of terrain complexity (trees, walls) you're going to be using a lot of paper or erasers. The battlemat, though, with hex/square grids on either side instantly simplifies your combat/storytelling. --It's wet erase NOT dry erase which means bumping your hand against a line won't smear it... but you will have to keep a rag/water handy. --The vinyl is extremely durable, and quickly returns to flat when unrolled. --It's large enough for most encounters and even mapping cities or dungeons, but you can fit it onto anything bigger than an end-table. This is the first one I've owned, so I can't compare it to other products, but I can praise the qualities of this one in particular. I DM three campaigns and have for about 8 months, but I can't imagine having a single session without it.
Review: Lasts well, according to my son. - Good quality material for gaming.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What type of markers are safe to use on this mat?**
A: I personally have used the markers found here:http://www.amazon.com/Expo-Vis-A-Vis-Markers-Colored-16078/dp/B00006IFGW/ref=pd_sim_t_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=1MCHWK4CEPYZZ14TNHSPGenerally any wet erase marker should work, and my experience with these ones in particular are nothing but positive. Very clear and vibrant, doesn't really smudge or come off when dry and very easy to wipe clean with a wet paper towel.

**Q: What, exactly, are the dimensions of this mat?**
A: 25.75 x 23.5 inches. It's not exactly square.The grid doesn't run right up to the edges. There are half-inch borders along the short sides and 3/4th inch borders along the long sides.The grid itself is 22 x 25 squares, which is why the mat is not actually square.

**Q: I accidentally used permanent marker on my mat. A cloth and surface cleaner did not bring it out, what should i do?**
A: Like one other person said, using a dry erase marker over it then wiping it off will usually do the trick. If it still doesnt work a small alcohol prep pad wont harm the material

**Q: Would these Liquid Chalk Wet Erase Markers work on it? 
http://www.amazon.com/NeoChalk-Liquid-Chalk-Marker-Earth/dp/B0019V8GLO/**
A: I tried it with VersaChalk Chalk Markers: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0189162SU?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00Most of the colors seemed to wipe off easily, only Blue and Red left stain marks. Be really careful with Blue, it seems like it stains almost instantly.

*by K***R on July 31, 2023*

I'm just getting back into D&D again after a 30+ year hiatus and was looking for a mat like the one our group used to have back in the day. The Chessex Battlemat is perfect as long as you use the recommended wet-erase Stadtler markers. I tried another brand that claimed to be wet-erase, but the color didn't easily wipe off after our session. I was able to remove the marks with a soft rubber eraser and some hard work. With the Stadtler Lumocolor markers and a wet paper towel, the ink just wipes off and the mat looks great! My advice: CAREFULLY TEST ANY MARKERS IN A SMALL AREA BEFORE USING! I really wanted a mat I could roll up when not in use, so this fits the bill nicely. I like how it has a 1 in. square grid on one side and a simlar size hex grid on the back. Worked perfectly for our first adventure and I expect to be using it a lot more in the future.
