AoS Nederland Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 I am looking for gaming mats, like the mats from frontlinegaming (https://www.frontlinegaming.org/f-a-t-mats/) but there are so many companies that sell these kind of mats. Anyone who has experiance with any of these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TalesOfSigmar Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 I've got mats from Gamemat.eu, Deep-Cut Studio and Frontline, they're all great and highly recommend. Though I'd recommend you get the Mousepad style ones, I've got a handful of the PVC cloth ones and they're a nightmare to flatten out when they've been rolled up, the mousepad ones however just roll straight out time and time again.

Chris Tomlin Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 @AoS Nederland - You've already listed the best ones in your own post! They are great products, anyone who owns or has played on them will recommend them I'm sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redking Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 I have an Urbanmatz and have been really happy with it. Although, I need to get a good one for AoS. I'm still using the old GW grass mat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orange Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 I've got a FAT mat, and my local club has a heap of them too. They're beautiful to play on, dice don't clatter and if minis topple over they don't get damaged. The material is really high quality and the artwork is great too. As long as they are rolled up they come out perfectly every time. But I also have one of the old GW grass mats, the blanket type. Probably not easy to come by any more, but it's still going strong over 10 years later! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjnoronh Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 I use gamemat.eu they now have new double sided mats for s little higher price so you can vary the background for your games. If you use them tell them Da Boyz GT sent you they are one of our sponsors. But I really do love them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. White Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 I have two of the vinyl sort by MatsbyMars. You can see one in action in this post: From some angles it does have a bit of a sheen. For the cost, I like them quite a bit and will likely get a third 2x3 mat for league/campaign/tourney sessions. I've also got one of the old Citadel grass mats which is amazing. I think that thing sold for only like $20 or something originally. Too bad they don't make 'em anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. White Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Err.... maybe we're talking about different grass mats? I'm referring to the black cloth backed one. It's like a blanket and doesn't crease or shed. Had it for years with no issue. Incredible product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orange Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Yep. Used this almost weekly for 10 years and it's pretty much the same as when I first got it. The old paper backed ones were bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Criti Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 All sources mentioned here are good - but PM me this question again in about 2 weeks. I'm going to GenCon next week and one of my goals is to see if there are any good mats available there. If there are, and you remind me, I'll send you company info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tidings Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 I have a FAT mat and I can't recommend it enough. Love everything about it. Lays flat, rolls nicely, looks fantastic, has no glare from lights when taking pictures, etc. The best part to me is actually how it feels rolling dice on it. When I go to my LHS I have to put a book or something down to roll dice, the loud clattering is like nails on a chalkboard after you've been spoiled be a FAT mat.
