As someone who grew up on Swedish RPG's in the 80's and 90's, I never really got into battle mats and miniatures.
It just doesn't feel right to me.
So I'm gonna run the game without the battle mats and without markers or miniatures.
Am I alone in this, or are any of you guys gonna do it too?
What do you do with the rules that are very "hex focused" in some cases?
Like ranges for weapons, explosions and other stuff?
On page 54 of the Players Handbook it states that you just multiply any range in hexes with 10 to get the range in meters, so that's not that hard, but explosive area and such will be a bit trickier, but solveable.
