Re: [dq-rules] Playing DragonQuest using a square grid



When I was playing D&D regularly many years ago (I could not gt people to switch) we used a square grid. After a while, we decided to revamp the movement system a bit by making movement along the grid 2MP and diagonal movement 3MP. This gave us better control and what we felt was a more 'realistic' movement system - don't forget to double the movement allowance if you try this.

Hi Everyone

I've been wondering, has anyone ever tried to run DragonQuest using a
square grid instead of a hex grid. It does hint at using a square
grid in the 10. Combat Equipment "If the GM wishes to use a 1-inch
square grid instead of hexes, he may but should resolve any rules
anomalies himself." Has anyone come up with rules to overcome these
anomalies? I've been looking at some of the real nice Dwarven Forge
dungeon pieces and would be real cool to get DragonQuest to work on a
square basis, so that I could run a game using it. Any thoughts would
be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Steve
