New Feature for The Tactical Screen: The Map Editor and Map Room Are Here!<\/h1>\n\n

Anyone who\u2019s been following this blog for a while knows how important the right terrain distribution and precise lines of sight on the hex grid and battlefield are to me. Whether we\u2019re talking about intense Mech duels in classic BattleTech or fast-paced lance battles in BattleTech Alpha Strike<\/em>, the battlefield often determines victory or defeat even before the first die is rolled. <\/p>\n\n

To make planning, analyzing, and sharing playing field layouts even easier, I’ve created The Tactical Screen<\/strong> <\/a>with two powerful new tools: the Map Editor<\/strong> and the new Map Room<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n

Here’s an overview of what the new features can do and how you can use them in your next battles.<\/p>\n\n

1. The Map Editor: Plan Playing Fields & Run Through Tactics<\/h2>\n\n

The Map Editor is the centerpiece of the new update. It provides you with a digital drawing board that lets you build game boards exactly to your liking and with the terrain levels you want. <\/p>\n\n

What can you do with the editor?<\/h3>\n\n
