# The Battletech Token Kit
The Battletech Token Kit is a simple set of images designed to be used to create hexes for Battletech. It can be used to make one-off hex tokens for terrain features, vehicles, complete maps, or any other hex tokens you may need. 

## Contents
The Battletech Token Kit is, at its core, a simple set of PNGs all on the same size hex. These hexes are between 391 and 392 pixels tall by 450 pixels wide, corresponding to a 32mm hex at 300 dpi when printed.

The kit consists of: 
* Templates
    - The templates are the foundation of any build. Using the appropriate template, overlays can be applied within the hexes to create a token, terrain element such as a longer river, or even a full map. 
    - The Templates are as follows: 
        - SingleHex.xcf 
            - A single hex with tesselation guides in GIMP format.
        - 7HexMap.xcf
            - A seven hex pattern in GIMP format. 
        - 10HexMap.xcf
            - a ten hex pattern in GIMP format. 
        - MapTemplate.xcf
            - an A4 template for a 6x7 hex map in GIMP format.
        
* Backgrounds
    - Various backgrounds for the creation of tokens. The filenames are self-explanatory.
    - These are applied to the hexes in the templates to give uniform backgrounds to the various maps.
