Definitely worth posting on their forums if you have hex issues, though -- the devs are quite friendly. | |

| Aug 31, 2010 at 14:56 | comment | added | Bryant | Yeah, I use it all the time, and I completely agree with you. It's a great tool for play, but it's a fairly poor mapping tool -- if I'm doing anything beyond laying down tiles I use Dundjinni, Photoshop, or Inkscape. | |
