Excellent product

Adventures take place on the way to the dungeon and back as well as inside it. these tiles come in handy for outdoor ambushes and encounters.

Best Tiles Yet!

Possibly my most used tiles now. I have all 4 sets and by far I needed the outdoors tiles the most. Great style and like always very durable. It's hard to spend 10$ and get something as useful for any D20 game.

Great product

This is a great product. The heavy, coated cardstock really makes it easy to pick up the tiles. I use the Ruins of the Wild quite often in my D&D games. My only complaint is that we need more variety. I hope they make a second set with more wilderness tiles.

Know what you're paying for...

I hate these sealed package products, especially when you can't find what you're buying. This is for all you other folks like me.

What you get in this pack are six double-sided pages of thick cardstock with a plasticy finish. No adventures or anything else--just map bits. Some of them are cut into 2x4" or 2-8" strips, with other bits that have groups of boulders or other terrain on them. The idea is to mix and match them Tetris-style to make a variety of maps. Presumably you could also use them with another forest map, but the thick stiff cardstock makes it so they wouldn't blend well--it's really thick. You could still make color copies of them though, cut out the bits you want, and keep the originals pristine for future use.

Another problem is that about half the cards are dominated by pretty exotic stuff that would be less useful for general purposes: an 8x8 circle of druid stones, hunting lodge floorplan, campsite or big round room filled with hay and bones. The campsite is alright, but the others are way too specific for my preference--determining the adventures you can do rather than giving you tools to run the adventure you want. Now there's still plenty of good stuff. Just about everything that is strange or difficult to use has some perfectly normal foresty grassland on the opposite side--and there's enough variety to the cards that you could just lay down the forest tiles, rotate and swap them periodically and you'd be fine. There are a couple of strange ones that would be a little tough to use in a normal game, like a gargoyle statue, a graveyard, a gypsy wagon, a giant's thighbone, scattered adventuring gear, a full giant's skeleton, a wrecked wagon, and...horses?? More of them are perfectly good and useable than that are odd, however.

One big advantage of the cards is that because they're in peices you can move characters along, laying cards down in the direction they move and pulling away ones where they've been. Especially if you buy a few of the same pack of map bits you could fill a full table with forest terrain and flip some cards over and switch them around and the characters could explore forever. It's a novel idea and I like it.

It really is a lot better than I was expecting. Certainly my first review of them was a bit unfair. I actually hadn't turned the tiles over to see that they were printed on both sides. Yeah, that made a difference. Boy, do I feel kinda' dumb.

Good, solid tiles. Bought them for my husband for a stocking stuffer gift. He loves all of these tile packs, and make for easy detailed map addtions without drawing scribbles on your battle mat and having to explain they're trees. Stairs? there ya go. This set even comes with horses on 10x10 squares, perfect for standing your D&D mini on to make him or her mounted. This is a great series, and I highly recommend them.

This wonderful product adds a new dimension to D&D games and gives Dungeon Masters an easy-to-use and inexpensive way to include great-looking terrain in their games.

This set provides ready-to-use, configurable dungeon and wilderness tiles of various shapes. There are six double-sided sheets of illustrated, die-cut terrain tiles printed on heavy cardstock.
