That is pretty cool. Was thinking about something like this for those fullsize battlemat PDFs they sell.

Review isn't worth much until it includes the probable COST of ordering such a map.

I'm with Chicklewis on this. A review without cost, what's the point? I don't even see vinyl banners on the linked website.

It's a neat map, but I'd like to know more.

Looks like the reviewer put up the wrong link; Signs on the Cheap may be the parent company or trading name, but they also run bannersonthecheap.com

That's exactly what happened. Banners on the Cheap is a subsidiary of Signs on the Cheap. At the time of the review, the company was sending out free samples in return for a review to test the waters and hadn't yet settled on a firm price. If you visit the review article again, you'll find I've updated the links to take you straight to Banners on the Cheap rather than signs on the cheap.

I've also included a direct link to the new, dedicated rpg-section of the Banners on the Cheap web-store, where you can find prices for such things as battlemats and gaming mats as well.

Or you can just copy and paste this bit here and go to the RPG area of the webstore directly:

Thanks for that.

Clicking through, it looks like you can get a 3x3 for around 22 bucks shipped. Not too bad!

That's what I am thinking, this seems like a really nice price. I am wondering if there are any issues buying a WWG Tile sets, arranging the tiles into a graphic program, then sending them here to have them nicely printed onto a vinyl mat. Would be far easier than what I was planning.

That is an EXCELLENT price.

Glenn M, I was thinking the same thing. I might email WWG and ask.
