Map Style
MrAnderson:
I like the cartesian maps a bit more, they seem a bit easier to understand.
Conscript Gary:
Aye, providing a reference for the coordinate system actually being used trumps what amounts to, essentially, a fancy-looking overlay.

Unless you are responsible for the math, I think Cartesian Maps are much more good looking. Mainly due to their not being restrained by an artificial hex grid. However, if you are responsible for the math... :P
MrAnderson, thank you for your input. ;)
Cheers, Thor

Conscript Gary, I wholeheartedly agree. The one benefit a hex map, in my humble opinion, has over a Cartesian Map is the ease of use. Since the distances are artificially constrained and already laid out, it makes movement much easier. ;)
Conscript Gary, thank you for your input. ;)
Cheers, Thor

I admit I prefer the squares as i can estimate distances easy(i know, i'm weird), but I am so used to the hex that it is difficult to imagine using anything else. I guess that is from too many Battletech and starfleet battles games!
