So, I have a campaign dealing with an immense space station, something more akin to an orbital town. I have a lot of it segmented out to fit within the confines of on of the 4ft by 3ft gaming mats sold by Wiz Dice, but I was wondering if somebody knew of any mats that were larger? I'm talking offensively huge. A real burden to carry around sort of deal.
Things to note:
I'm using pretty standard 1in squares in my game, but can be convinced to maybe go down to .75-.50 inches per square.
It took me some hunting but I found it: the Chessex Mondomat! Listed as being 4 & 1/2 by 8 & 1/2 feet in size, this is the monstrosity I remember having when I was in college. I think you can find it on Amazon for a shade over $100.00 USD
Edit: Amazon shows it as $115.87, not including sales tax, shipping and handling.
Glad I could help! It was crazy when I read through this, I could have *sworn* my battle mat was bigger than 3’ by 4’ but all I was seeing was that with a general search. It was only when I remembered it was chessex and went to their site that I found it. I remember hauling this thing around in some huge architects scroll case (big blue tube) all over town by bus. Live to game folks.

Any and all help is appreciated.
I haven't seen mats bigger than that, but I did find an actual board that was, and it was gridded, as well.
...but it was super expensive (over $200). You'd have to a little work to make it your permanent tabletop.
Like a solid board?
You could try Whiteboard Sheets. They're designed for business purposes but could easily be patched together to make one big sheet.

Well, for 8 pounds sterling, I can give it a shot.

Degusting. Cumbersome. Too big for my table.
It's perfect! It's exactly what I wanted. Thank you, Father Christmas.
