Hey Omnius I showed her all the comments here and she was saying "well you could move the wall mounted tv, and stand, out of the way and put the maps on the wall in the living room". I took that with a sack full of grains of salt.

I don't believe the map is ever playable on a table, not unless you split it up. It's 9+ feet wide (high). There's an upper limit to a human's reach. I've always pegged that at a maximum map width of 7 feet. I look at this map as part of a vertical setup, if you can find a 10 foot high ceiling.

I measured the printed map yesterday. It is 102 inches vertically. There is a 1 inch margin at the top which could be cut off or folded under. But that stills 101 inches, 5 inches too much for an 8 foot ceiling.

Trimming the bottom 5 inches wouldn't be too bad, since there is just one port in far south South America which would be eliminated.

I haven't measured the true width, but I am sure there is some reduction from the listed 21 foot width due to hex column overlap.
