I want to really simple layout to serve as a training simulation. The idea is that I think people will find it easier to learn combat if they can role play, but in world they're in a simulation.
I also wanted to try making a map fast. In the past it's been a long, slow process. This is a partially built trolley in a factory that players can use to trying out tactics.
I totally agree that I think it can make the game far easier to use and contribute to if we build out a repository of content, including user content.
I'm not sure how to make map-making easier, though I think if i share SVGs of just the grids, that might be a good start.
I know tabletop map making is its own artform, which I unfortunately am but a novice at.
