Hi folks - I just finished building a 3D combat display that allows fighting 3D space battles (using counters on magnets) that I thought I'd show off a bit. I used the BattleFleet: Mars maps, but anything would work. I've got pictures and such on the Exodus Project site, http://www.ExodusProject.com/3DCombat, if you're curious. TTYL...

We played Vector 3 back in grade school (weird kids, long story, tractor beams taught me negative numbers) a lot, and that's the same tactical system. We used binders, sheet protectors and dry-erase markers to achieve the same effect. I think the magnetic aspect is a fine addition to the technique. I've gotta get more magnetic counter clips, I've got seven metal doors in this apt, and only one game on them.
