We're going to need a bigger boa..rd

Postby Autopilot79 » October 11th, 2017, 9:00 am

Hello everyone,

As many of the miniatures I'm using in Heroquest are from the recent GW range, (32mm bases or even 40mm..) I'm struglling with the problem that I need a bigger board, I was looking for some solution so I could make/order/whatever a new board with about 32x32mm squares, What are your suggestions? Any decent files out there so I can print it in neoprene for example? ideas?

Many thanks.

Yes, there's this for those who wanna play 30mm squares:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/wbi05paa9mvrzjn/AAC36HXvMTsD1tXdQpaxPtsIa?dl=0

But I myself go even bigger (40mm, because even monstrous infantry fits a square then) and Slev offers that board for download here:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/0wsdub7ipwe40d1/AACIwaSXLN18XdCv-y9MuvhKa?dl=0

If you're interested in the 40mm board, I already resized markers and tokens and tiles for that size.
Let me know, so I can upload that stuff into my dropbox.

Amazing.

I have just downloaded the 40mm, absolutely perfect. Thank you.

Now, any suggestions for printing this? I was thinking about neoprene, how have you guys done it?

I'd probably go with a poster printer service.
Neoprene, PVC, something like that.
But I haven't any experience myself.

BUILD IT! Embark on the ultimate quest of building your own board. It needs to be done at least once by all true HQ fans. I'm yet to cross it off my bucket list.

Sanabeso on eBay has some nice 30mm ones printed on soft vinyl. I just ordered some variants last weekend.
this is where I've been posting my painting progress so far:
