Been experimenting with using isometric maps recently in my Hackmaster game. Seem to be very popular with players. Especially when used with dynamic lighting. Only downside is standard grids aren't really useful. But it hasn't really been an issue at all.

I've had some success with using vertical hex grids for perspective maps.

Mone of my DMs does something similar, and we don't use the grid at all. We just use the measuring/distance tool and common sense. Looks great Jolly!

The question is where we would find/purchase Isometric maps... I've only found a few online for RPGs, but they actually have the grid built in, so games that are heavy on mechanics can use them with no problem.

I've been messing around with attempts at creating DIY tile sets that can be used to create somewhat isometric maps, notably with ramps that go from one level to another. There is at least one person working on creating an isometric grid within Roll20 using the API I think.
