anyone know of a company that makes game mats larger than 4 x 6? like 5 x 8 or bigger? i have two 4 x 6 mats that i like but i want to try the method of putting the hills / elevations UNDER the matt versus on top. I also want to do some larger battles that are bigger than 4 x 6. doing my research i see there are several tutorials of people making their own, which i might try, but i'd be so much easier to buy the thing and focus the hobby time on painting miniatures. any help is appreciated! |

I have a 5' x 7' from Corsec, nice and made from a thin fleece material, should be perfect for your needs. corseceng.com/fabric-mats |

Maybe sew two together and have an 8 by 12. It can overhang the table some |

sewing two 4x6 would give you 1 8x6 or 1 4x12 3 would give you 12x6 or 18x4 for 8x12 you'd neef 4. |

I usually go with 12' x 6', and make my own. Not aware of any commercially that large, or even close. |

thanks guys! i don't know how i missed Corsec and Matowar.
Is there a US distributor for Matowar? I only see Antenocitis workshop (and biggest is 6 x 8. which is big enough). i can't get on the corsec sight while at work, but I will check them out as well. thanks again! |

Doesn't Cigar Box. Battle. Mats have some that come bigger than 4x6? |

Terrain Mat might also be worth a look, although there seems to be a backlog at the moment: link I have half a dozen or so and am very pleased with them. |

I bought a 5 foot by 10 foot table cloth that was nice. Something to look into at least. Matthew |

Cigar box battle mats seem to be the new hotness, but no, the web store only goes up to 6 x 4. I have been looking at table clothes / big green blanket / DIY options. just seems like a lot of work and my hobby time and space are at a premium. But the cualking on canvas shows some really cool results. just would be easier to buy. I'm seriously tinking about the Matowar. |

Spray-painting felt or baize is pretty quick…doing it by hand is really, really not. |

I have seen a few from banner print shops---all star wars death star stuff---but it was huge 3 game tables long so probably 5 x 18---printed on canvas |

Hotz Mats makes them! I think you can get them 6 x 8
hotzmats.com |

Please stay away from hotzmats. Long delivery time. You could make it yourself 3 times over before you get a hotz order delivered. |
