Loke Towns & Taverns Books of Battle Mats , Black

I have purchased as many of the Loke Battlemats as I can from Amazon (currently only missing The Wilderness two-volume set, and the Little Books, as well as most of the the Sci-Fi and Cyber Punk lines, although all of them are basically on my Wishlist), from the Giant Books to the Big Books to the various two-Volume sets, and I have yet to not be extremely pleased with each one of my purchases.You will never make a better purchase as a DM or GM than by purchasing a Loke branded battlemat product, IMHO. The two volumes of this Towns & Taverns set work together to come up with almost any town or tavern kind of battlemap that you might need, and if there are any others that you might need, you can mark on these maps with dry or wet erase (although I suggest using dry erase because it wipes off cleaner no matter how long it sets/sits on the maps), to adjust them as you see fit. The maps are also modular, and work in various combinations with ALL of the other Loke products that I have seen so far.Like most of the Loke Battlemats, these have thick, sturdy pages that are essentially waterproof and wipe clean, as well as a spiral binding which allows you to use each page individually or as a double page spread. Each book, from Giant to Big to Little to these 2-volume sets also have handy visual indexes (with page numbers!) on the back of each book so that you can find which one you need in a jiffy. The two volume sets (Dungeons; Castles, Crypts & Catacombs; Towns & Taverns, and The Wilderness) also have hardbound covers, and a nice slipcase with a combined visual index of the maps contained within the two volumes.As a DM who homebrews A LOT of D&D5e, I have found that with as many of these Loke battlemat products as I can get, I have virtually any non-super specific battle map covered, from any environment that I could possibly imagine. All of the maps are 1" grids, with spectacular artwork throughout. Most of the books also include at least one set of generic pages (stone work, grasslands and the like) for basic battle map kind of stuff, as well as a plethora of other maps to choose from.The two volume sets give you a nice smattering of maps that follow a specific theme (such as Towns & Taverns!) and then gives you way more than you thought you could want, and you will likely find a use for each one of them! You can even use the maps themselves to come up with encounters or mini-scenarios inspired by them. Need a warehouse by the dock? Here you go. Need a tavern by the river? Gotcha. Need a fancy manor house? Look no further.After the first Loke book that I purchased, I have been obsessed with these books and sets. I cannot possibly recommend them enough if you aren't the greatest at drawing maps, or just don't want to deal with paper maps that get wrinkled and torn and water damaged like a lot of mine. I love each and every product that they have put out and I have been able to snag up to thispoint, and have also pre-ordered their upcoming RPG Toolbox, for the maps alone, if for nothing else (and there's a lot included).If I were a DM that didn't have these Loke battlemat products already, then I would be tickled pink if I received any of them as a gift for being an awesome DM, so if you have a DM that you love, then ANY of these products are a clear choice in my mind.Final note to the makers of these fine products: Loke! Please feel free to help me get The Wilderness set! I need it! OK. I want it, but I feel like I need it!

I took the spiral binding out, so they could be mixed and matched however the DM wanted. Just happened to be have a large scenario coming up 2-3 sessions after buying this set, so it worked perfectly to create an elaborate scene. LOVE the set and high quality!

Love this product, heavy duty and robust. I will be purchasing other battle map book sets shortly.

Get these books. Just get them. You play dnd or other games set in towns? Buy this. I adore these books. They fulfill all my town needs. I love how they're not creased or curling from being rolled up, and they're nice and sturdy, and good art. And you can mix and match to your heart's content to create more map variety. This is like one of my favorite belongings now. Tavern, road, harbor, graveyard, castle, sewer, town streets, it's got you covered.

I planned the next 2 (maybe three sessions) for my group with these books. They are amazing and save me so much time! The quality is very good and will work fine with most miniatures that have a 25mm to 32mm base size. If you play with terrain or maps then do yourself a favor and purchase this. I have the Towns and Taverns set as well as the Dungeon book set.

This book of maps far far exceeded my expectations in every way. The pages were all perfect, the printing superb, and the artwork just wonderful. I wish I knew about these before I bought my fold out battle maps as these are way more flexible and as a novice DM stir the creative juices in my head. I LOVE how you can mix and match the volumes as they all have common entry and exit points. And having flexible set up to be 24” x 24” , or just use 1 book and have a 12” x 24” map, and go further and only have 1 page open. For a 12” x 12” map. Makes so much sense when you have limited table space and want to mix them up. Can’t wait to give these a try.

These books are awesome makes spacing and battle tactics so much easier. Definitely gonna buy more of these

For those asking, the wire binding comes out with ease. It can be bent and popped out by hand.I recommend it as I now have far, far more options to work with. The tiles work well rotating single pages, putting down more than 4 at a time, and some tiles work great as huge structures plopped on top of maps of 6 tiles.The books come with a nice sleeve, I'm storing the loose tiles in that. Works great.

Los recomiendo ampliamente ya que son de un muy buen tamaño (30x30cm) y brindan mucho dinamismo a las partidas. Está perfecto que las hojas sean laminadas, ya que puedes pintar sobre ellas con plumón de agua y se borra sin problemas. La cantidad de losetas que trae es bastante, y si tomamos en cuenta que vienen dos libros con losetas a ambos lados en cada hoja, pues es una muy buena compra.

Being an experienced DM, husband is very excited to use them. They are beautifully illustrated and feel very sturdy.

Good variety and quality.

Well packaged. Delivery was speedy. Exactly as shown in the photo. Very happy.

As a DM this will be a great time saver and helps with inspiration. One possible improvement could be making like a ringed binder so maps can be individually removed to make even more combinations and even larger maps. Great product and recommend.
