Hi Everyone,

Just got back from Poundland here in the UK with 3 packs of 5 peel and stick tiles. Perfect hexboards! They are embossed so the hexes will show up if painted. The hexes are about 35mm edge to edge so perfect for minis. All for £6.00 GBP a pack. The boards are about 26 by 26 cms. What a find.Get them while you can I say.

I guess I will mount these on some non-warpable material. Maybe they could be used in a portable style wargame.

Nice find.

Thanks for heads up, worth a look. I assume the thickness is the same as a typical vinyl floor tile?

What would anyone use a hex grid of 35mm for?

Star Blazer 5 tiles for 6 quid is what it is.

Billy they are quite thin. I think I would mount them on something, but if they didn't warp when painted I'd leave them as is.

Mollinary I think if using 25mm bases 35mm hexes give the figures a bit of room, so OK for me.
