Ok, so I’ve got this crazy idea, well two part idea really.
Part 1:
Take the AAP40 map and sandwich it with a sheet of Lexan on the top.
The idea is we rarely have time to sit and play an entire game (for whatever reason are games are almost always seriously drawn out), so when we call it for a night we can use dry erase markers to write down what was where (I have kids, so leaving the board out isn’t an option)
Part 2:
Less likely to work, but put a magentic sheet behind the board, still with the thin lexan on top. Then adhere small magnets to the miniatures so I can mount the board on a wall. The only issues I see is getting strong enough magnets to hold, but not too strong that it’s an issue getting the miniatures pulled off the board without breaking the magnet off. Several of the units, IE subs, don’t have a lot of space to glue a magnet to. I could also put magnets on the chips so stacking is possible and put a pair on top of the carriers so aircraft can be held.
Thoughts?
