Volcano on one side, glacier on the other: eight extreme double-sided mats
BattleTech - BattleMat Fire and Ice offers a collection of 8 high-quality neoprene hex battle mats, non-slip and more durable than traditional paper maps. Each mat features a volcanic ("Fire") environment on one side, and its frozen ("Ice") counterpart on the other:
- Erupting Canyon — lava canyon / frozen canyon
- Magma Fjords — lava tubes and fjords / ice field
- Umber Station — remote station amid lava or glaciers
- Caldera Lake — volcanic lake / frozen lake and tundra
- Fire Rivulets — lava streams / frozen rivers
- Burning Station — industrial facility in fire zone / frozen counterpart
- Acrid Battlefield — cliffs and beach, lava flows / glacial shelves
- Laze Base — base installation connecting the surrounding volcanic and arctic environments
A modular format, for massive gaming tables
The mats in BattleTech - BattleMat Fire and Ice can be combined to build a seamless "megamap" suited for large-scale games. They draw on the environmental rules from BattleTech: Tactical Operations: lava hexes cause heat buildup and potential leg damage to BattleMechs, while ice hexes require Piloting Skill Rolls to avoid slipping. The mats remain compatible with Total Warfare and Alpha Strike.
