thin hex edges?

[phoenix]

Actually, I would be the reverse, OJW. I would rather they looked like military maps (which don't usually have hexagonal shapes depicting natural features) and the new Gold series goes quite a way towards that with the urban graphics, especially. I would MUCH prefer PB to look 'to scale' - so each hex represents 250m of land, in which case houses, villages and cityscapes would be better to scale if drawn like the Gold series standard, imho. My query is about those giant, thick hex edges which we also used to have in PB, but which are gone now. So, tastes differ, I guess!! Like you say, it's nice to have options to cater for diferent tastes. I would second that.
