Frequently Asked Questions

  • Late pledges only ran for a short time after the Kickstarter and MMF campaigns and are no longer available.

  • With their intricate details, Hexton Hills tiles would seemingly be ideal for resin printers only. Fortunately, though, when we launched the initial campaign, we saw that there was a great demand for our tiles to be FDM compatible, so we decided to supply versions suitable for it.

    We make sure details can be printed at a standard 0.2mm for FDM printers.

  • Hexton Hills doesn’t work to any particular scale. Much like old medieval maps, we like to think of them as being representative of the most important feature in that particular tile. A caricature of sorts.

  • We supply both tabbed and tabless versions of all tiles so you can choose which one works best for you. All tabbed and tabless tiles work together.

  • The tiles use 2 different types of magnets depending on how you choose to magnetize them. They can have a single magnet on the underside to stick to a magnetic surface which works for tabbed or tabless versions.

    Alternatively, 12 small magnets (2 on each edge) can be used so that they can stick together. This method only works for tabless versions.

  • While we do plan on supporting custom rulesets; Hexton Hills tiles aren’t specifically designed to be used with any one particular game. However our customers have used them to represent maps for Dungeons and Dragons, Pathfinder, Oathmark, Warhammer Age of Sigmar and Mighty Empires. You could even use pieces from our gamification set to create your own 3d Catan board.

  • For Resin tiles -

    Reducing scale? Yes! Try printing at 75% or even 50% for a bigger map with tiny tiles!
    Increasing scale? Not recommended as this will likely increase surface suction and increase risk of failure. Adding custom supports to negate this would likely be necessary.

    For FDM tiles -

    Scaling down? No. Reducing scale will cause details to be lost and certain elements on the hex may fail.
    Scaling up? Yes go BIG! Some customers have printed select tiles up to 200%!
