Looking at those maps, there is some wizkids-specific info on them. The squares are colour-coded as to the type of terrain, as required by the various *clix rules.

Nothing that means the can or can't be used by anyone else, but it's not just a Wizkids logo slapped on an otherweise generic map.

Gale Force Nine is proud to announce that our first two high-quality vinyl Battle Maps for WizKids HeroClix Collectible Miniatures Game are shipping to stores and distributors this week!

GF9's Battle Maps are printed on durable vinyl and lie flat for a superior game experience. These quality gaming surfaces come rolled in a solid, plastic tube for easy storage and transport. The maps may be marked with Wet-Erase markers by players who wish to temporarily alter terrain areas or make other notes about battlefield conditions played in-game.

Dawn of Man Battle Map

Dawn of Man is a 36" x 36" Outdoor Battle Map (24 squares by 24 squares) with hindering, blocking, elevated and water terrain elements.

The world is in crisis as time begins to fold in on itself. In the distant past, at the dawn of humanity, a lone cave boy learns the power of fire from an enigmatic being. With this new tool he defends his tribe from savage Neanderthals. During the battle reality is torn apart around them; heroes and villains from different eras and universes join the fight. The fate of time and existence hang in the balance.

Spaceship Crash Site Battle Map

Spaceship Crash Site is a 36" x 24" Outdoor Battle Map (24 squares by 16 squares) with both hindering and blocking terrain areas.

A mysterious spaceship crashes in a remote and savage land. Mighty heroes arrive to investigate only to be confronted by bizarre doppelgangers and past versions of themselves. The heroes battle amidst the smoldering wreckage in the first titanic battle of a secret invasion of the Earth by a mysterious alien race.

Both of these epic Outdoor Battle Maps are available in your favorite game, hobby and comic book stores! You can also get these maps as well as our 3-D Power Effects at the GF9 online store!

October will see the release of an Indoor Battle Map to coincide with the release of DC HeroClix: Arkham Asylum. Future Battle Map releases will accompany new WizKids releases. Also look for new Battle Maps designed by WizKids exclusively for Gale Force Nine!

Gale Force Nine will soon make classic WizKids HeroClix Battle Maps available as vinyl maps directly through our online store at gf9.com.
