Many of the sets have tiles that either do not have an Anchored version or have both an Anchored and Non-Anchored version, including: Himmelveil Streets, Himmelveil Canals, and Streets of Legend - all of which are designed to comprise the major Outdoors sections of a build, which is most likely to be expansive. The other sets (Thoumont's TLX, Sewers of Himmelveil, Lost Halls of the Dwarf Kings, the SoL: Armoury series, and probably Codename Titan as well, though I don't own that set yet to confirm) are designed to either be primarily or entirely indoor structures, meaning that there's a much higher need of the Anchors than in the outdoor sets. You could make a case that these could use an Non-Anchored version of the floor tiles as well, but the designers decided that it wasn't a high enough priority for these sets. Magius out. |

This was exactly the kind of thing that the Kitbash area used to take care of. Simple additions to the set that were easy to make by fans and would be useful to a good number of people. Whenever the Kitbash section of the site starts up again, I will bet that this request is filled very quickly. In the mean time, farseer do you have any gimp/photoshop skills? If so, you may want to consider editing some of the tiles by grabbing the texture of the anchors and merging them onto the tile PDF. Just one thing to note, it's not quite a simple cut an paste, as the posts don't exactly map to the texture of the floors. You will need to merge the edges of the two textures together. It's actually quite simple to do (Make sure the two textures overlap a bit then slowly erase the anchor texture with a progressively softer eraser tool.) It takes a bit of practice, but an hour or less of work should get you exactly the unmarked tile you want. Now all that said, I have to agree with you that I wish all the sets had at least one post and non-post floor tile. |

Yeah, it is my hope that we can reignite the kitbash area with some fresh TLX content once the new website launches. |

Actually I think its supposed to be because glue does not adhere as well to printed areas. |

Kitbashing aside, there is a very simple solution to accomplish what you want. Print your tiles as normal and build them - without anchors. Then print an additional tile, but instead of assembling it, cut it up for parts, and glue them over the "glue here" areas on the assembled tiles. Viola! Plain tiles of any type. This is how I kitbashed my 2 mast Maiden (0 digital alterations), as well as other minor bashes, and it works great. |

Manual kitbashing, as robby suggests, is often a wonderful solution. Although, in this case, it would likely be more work than cutting out the actual anchors. |
