Dungeon Master Accessories: Battle Mats
35 products
Second perhaps only to miniatures, battle mats (or battle maps) are some of the helpful accessories to creating some of the most memorable tactical experiences in dungeons & dragons and other tabletop RPGs.
While it is often the case that many in the gaming community will debate the merits of using "theater of the mind" vs tactical battle mats, with many Dungeon Master's leaning to one perspective or the other. The truth is that there is no specific need for polarization in perspectives. Both are helpful and both can be used together to enhance player experiences in the hobby.
Immersive battles on a grid are excellent for helping players know their and others location, to act tactically and give themselves a real sense of control (or lack thereof) and agency of the encounter. Theater of the mind adds that immersive element that adds meaning and fleshes out the tactical elements of the situation the characters are in. Both are good, both have a role to play in creating impactful and memorable encounters. So, regardless of whether you're a DM who emphasizes theatrics, or a more hack and slash approach, you can take your gaming combat experience to the next level with grid-based battle mats.
