People who play LANCER on FoundryVTT (or other VTTs), what do you do/use it terms of battle maps?

• mekhq

  158 125 9.8 Java

  MekHQ is a java helper program for the MegaMek game that allows users to load a list of entities from an XML file, perform repairs and customizations, and then save the new entities to another XML file that can be loaded into MegaMek.

  

I generally use the megamek mapmaker or maps from this drive. The megamek maps have to be stretched a bit in height to make the hexes fit foundry's hexes.

  154 10,611 9.0 C++

  Flexible level editor

  

I use Tiled with this tileset I found in Pilot NET. The maps it creates are entirely form over function - no fancy art or effects unless you add them a different way - but they're very legible. Then I use Foundry's drawing tools to sketch out outlines for cover, object sizes, etc. (Here's an example of a map I made for a Train Heist combat - orange is Size 1, yellow is soft cover, purple is difficult terrain, and so on.)
