Front Line Games makes similar product and are local so I buy from them but there are two unique ones made by Deepcut that I have wanted and will likely purchase one in 2018.
This one I have seen in person and it looks great: Beach
The other one that looks great but I haven't seen in person: Aerial
I only use mousepad material mats for WoG because they provide the most gentle landing for inadvertently toppled aircraft.
Wow, guys - these are beautiful! A tad bit pricey, but that beach mat is really spectacular...I could see splurging on something like that
Thanks for sharing the site.
All the best,
Matt
That aerial mat is pretty killer, too. Would serve as a great Battle of Britain mat.
Nice looking mats but pretty pricey for the mousepad version.
(although they are almost twice the size of the Ares mats)
That would be ideal - well worth it for a one off purchase - at 6x4 it is actually two and a half times the size of the WoG mats so comparable price wise. If I wasn't so heavily invested in WoG mats already I'd get one.

It's pretty comparable to what Luis charged us for those mats we use: Cliffs of Dover, Wake Island etc.Originally Posted by matt56

I'd be worried about shipping

Yeah, Karl, I had thought about that, too...but you and the others are right about the cost vs. size aspect of things. Things to think uponThey are very pretty...
All the best,

Like this a lot. The Print-O-Map section, for mousepad game mats, also looks very tempting. Gives control to the purchaser of the image they want to upload. Not sure of the cost of that though. Think I might take this further. Thanks for sharing Gary.
PS UK Price for 1 6' x 4' Mousepad gamepad = 64.90 euros + 14.90 euros shipping = 79.80 euros. At current exchange rate, approximately Ł71.00. Given that they are quite a bit larger than two WoG mats, they seem to be a good buy, if the quality matches.

That is a great looking mat. Here in the states CIGARBOX makes similar type mats. I have one of theirs, I won it in a raffle, and it is nice. I have an idea to use it in a wings game.

Scott here is their Beach mat which looks close to the one you posted.
Thank you Bob, that is also nice. Shipping from a US location is going to be cheaper too! The great thing about cloth is it will not bulge on the edges if draped across the table sideways to create a 4x4 beachhead. Why would someone want that? To extend an additional 2' area on the green side for a larger jungle/coastal instalation area or perhaps extend the water for additional Naval action.
Scott that is a shot of that mat. If you go to their site you can see all the others they have.

Thanks Bob. Nice selection for many different uses. I see the Beachhead Progression offered as a 3 map set. I wish there was a large enough WGS playerbase in the area to justify purchasing a 12'x6' map set for huge air battles...
After thinking about it for 5 days I just ordered the cloth Aerial Battlefield one. If the wife doesn't break both arms when she finds out, I should be able to give an assessment when it gets here in a few weeks.
For those others thinking about it. The deciding factor for me was that if I bought just 1 WoG mat from Rival sky it would cost me $81.90 including postage so for $111.90 I get one 6 foot by 4 foot to cover the whole table.

Mr Spock would be proud of you.
Cool. Pictures, please, once it arrives!
This one arrived today. 6' x 4' mousepad, I'm very pleased. I had asked them about doing a custom mat starting from their Aerial and sent a mock-up. In a few days this is what they came up with, perhaps to be called Over No Man's Land. I thought for the price it was pretty good value ($109 shipped, 85 euro + 15 euro shipping). Enjoy!
That looks like a cross over from their Verdun mat and the Fields and Clouds mat. Best of both worlds for you.
What a beautiful mat. One of the best I've seen.
That looks great!
And two of them might sit nicely together to form a 6' x 8' battle area........

A smarter person would have ordered two from the start.That looks great!

But may have to do this hmm.
Thanks all!
That's a purty mat alright.

Great looking mat Chris. That will be a blast to play on.
I will bring a couple to Origins and you guys can leave the wreckage of lil malachi planes all over it.
We'll do our best to please.
Great looking mat. I have not seen those before.
You look fantastic flying over those fluffy clouds Chris, and the way they cast shadows - perfect! Awkward question #28 - would you use the clouds to hide in?
It's more my style just be yelling at clouds.
Love the mat so much I went and bought one. Didn't go for the custom built, just the standard one with clouds.
The fields and clouds one was made for the Blood Red Skies game, I am not sure about the Verdun one. I have both in 6x4 cloth and they are great. They are great and well worth the money imho.
Crhis - that is one beautiful mat
I took purchasing advice from the masterThat looks great!
And two of them might sit nicely together to form a 6' x 8' battle area........
I searched their site for the Verdun one but haven't seen it. I'm sure it's nice though. The cloud effects are nicely done and what hooked me. I was going to try to replicate it on some WoG mats but don't think I could do a good job.
Tim was right, two are better than one
It's funny to me, but when taking pics my phone keeps prompting to do a panorama shot because it's fooled by the clouds and landscape lol.
To order, email Kostas, custom@deepcutstudio.com and ask for the Over No Man's Land mat. They have 2mm mousepad (pictured here) or cloth or vinyl.

Apart from the fields and clouds mat in 6x4 cloth I bought this one that I call Verdun. I cannot see it on their website so wonder if it has been discontinued. It is a very depressing and devastated landscape that I would imagine reflects the terrible conditions there at the time.
The new ones that show a combination of clouds and fields also show a strip of this one across the middle. Less depressing altogether.
I have just got to have one of those, best I have ever seen

Chris,
Email Kostas Brazauskas, custom@deepcutstudio.com and tell him you'd like an Over No Man's Land like they recently printed for Chris Weaver, 40213 USA. He can give you the PayPal info.
The have them in mousepad, cloth, and vinyl. Delivery was pretty speedy, both mine had a brief delay for customs clearance.
FYI I'm not affiliated with deepcutstudios or benefit from referrals, just wanted to share what I think is a cool product.
Enjoy
Gary,
That's very cool. I imagine they still have them but perhaps because these are custom prints they don't list them on the web site. I found they are pretty responsive in email if folks describe what they want they'll send a mock-up.
Yes Chris is right they probably still have that one or can print one for you. It was 54.90 Eur for my cloth one. Postage was high but it still worked out at a little bit less than 3 WoG mats.
Very nice thanks for the help

Doh! I just realized (for the benefit of anyone ordering two in future) that one could request the image be flipped/reversed so the images would line up perfectly.
