Well, I'm 42 and my vision aint what it used to be either, but I don't have much trouble reading the numbers and names on the tiles. As, I said before, I made that gamebox years ago, but even if I re- did today, I don't think I'd go much bigger than 50 or 55 pixel tiles. The spaces on the map are packed pretty close as it is, and if you get much bigger, full scale scale becomes useless.
