With owning so many of the eAdventure tilesets now, it has become a nightmare to set the tiles out on a table/floor to design a floorplan. This set helps me immensely for several reasons
1) I don't have to look through several hundred tiles for the right one
2) I am not limiting my adventure are to the table/floor I am designing on, so I am inadvertantly making bigger grander maps, which I think is good
3) The printout gives a grid with the floorplan required in the position on the grid it lays - this feature alone is priceless, as I was getting sick of making my own grid and laboriously filling it in with the tile ref number
4) You can make dungeon handout maps (suitably doctored to be incorrect as well for the players to get lost/ambushed ! ) and save them, make subtle changes etc etc
5) The eFuture Icebase is also supported on here, which was an unexpected welcome addition.
I would like to have seen the option of making the map slightly smaller, then the small size( to view an overall huge map more easily), and slightly larger than the large size as particularly with a 'Details' set it is often hard to make out what the 'detail' in question actually is.
I still haven?t worked out how to print the report in landscape mode which is slightly annoying.
I also own a lot of the Wilderness Tiles which are not supported here ( not even the 6x 6 entrances which would at least be a nice interim quickfix for now ?), also all of the spaceship type-eFuture Tiles, of which none of the latters starship floorplans are on here.
Reading reviews of a year ago, this is supposedly being worked around, but wow ? that was a YEAR ago ! Any news on this ?

<b>LIKED</b>: Easy to use tool, with a printout of what tiles you need, and where they all fit, as well as the professional looking final map<br><br><b>DISLIKED</b>: If you make the map too wide it gets cut off during printing. Also still no update on the Wilderness and Spaceship tiles being incorporated, after a year of waiting.<br><br><b>QUALITY</b>: Excellent<br><br><b>VALUE</b>: Very Satisfied<br>
