Run a quick battle map and share it

The standalone Battle Map is a quick grid for a fight: tokens, fog of war and a live link for the table. It keeps nothing — the map lives while your tab is open. For a map that stays with a campaign between sessions, use the campaign's own battle map (see campaign tools).

Before you start

Set up the map

1. Open the Battle Map

   In the TTRPG Realm's rail, choose Battle Maps.

2. Size the grid

   Set Cols and Rows. Shrinking the grid drops any token or revealed square that no longer fits.

3. Add tokens

   In Move mode, type up to two letters in the token box (A, G1…), pick a colour, and press Add token.

4. Move a token

   Click a token to select it, then click an empty square to move it there. With a token selected, Remove “…” takes it off the map.

Hide the map under fog

1. Switch to Fog

   Press Fog, then tick Enable fog. The whole map is covered.

2. Reveal as they explore

   Click a square to reveal it; click it again to hide it. Reveal all and Cover all do the whole map at once.

3. Back to moving

   Press Move to place and move tokens again. The fog stays as you left it.

Share it

1. Share with the table

   Press Share with the table, then Copy invite link (it reads Link copied ✓) and send it to your players.

If something's off

Clicking squares does nothing to the fog

Fog only paints when Enable fog is ticked. The hint under the controls says Click cells to reveal/hide once it is.

A token won't move

You're in Fog mode: press Move. Tokens can only move onto empty squares.

The map is gone

The tab was closed or reloaded. This map isn't saved; for one that is, use the campaign battle map.
