As an impulse buy, I picked up a box of these tiles from the Role 4 Initiative guys at the last Gary Con.

To this point I haven't used them... but I think I will give them a try at my next C&C session. I like the idea of drawing out dungeon maps then flipping over the tiles as the PCs move deeper into a complex. I'm thinking it will speed play a bit by not having to do any map drawing on a battlemat and be a bit less cumbersome than folding over a mat or using another mat to cover everything else that is drawn out.
I'll let you know how it plays out.

Nice, I remember when something like this came out years ago, but then sold out and wasn't available for a while. Good to see they are being produced again.

Mike down in V-town had some Tac-Tiles which were solid plastic and SA-WEEEET! The dry erase boards aren't quite to that level but with some TLC they should last a good while.

I used the Dry Erase Dungeon Tiles last Sunday and they worked quite well. I liked having things pre-drawn and ready to go. My players enjoyed them, too!

Good to know they worked as intended.

We're playing again on Sunday. Jeff, whom you met when he accompanied me to Gary Con a few yrs back and one of the "Core Four" of the Barons of Bellevue, is leaving for TX next week so this will be his last session. The timing has worked out well since the party is exploring the "Home of the Gods" on an island in the middle of a lake within a volcanic caldera atop an enormous plateau on an island far from the mainland. I'll need to use more tiles to draw out more of the temple the group is exploring......

What part of TX is he heading to?
