The ones on the DSII back cover photo, and in one of the inside shots,
as
well as on the GZG online catalogue (Paul Owen's site), are not the
GeoHex
road sets (though any shots on GeoHex's catalogue site probably DO use
their Citiblox sheets). The ones in the photos are actually a model
railway
accessory - some Z gauge (approx. 1/220) flexible self-adhesive road
strip
by a German firm (either Heki or Busch, can't remember which and the
packet
is long gone!). It is a sort of thin foam tape that will accept gentle
curves (you can also buy packs of tighter curved bits for it, plus
crossroads etc.) and can be stuck down permanently on most surfaces.
The GeoHex Citiblox sets are fabric sheets printed with road and
pavement
pieces, which are designed to be temporarily laid over your terrain
system
as you wish for each game.
