The Army Painter: Rangefinder Tape Measure

Rangefinder Tape Measure is the official wargaming tape measure built for fast, accurate movement and range measurement on the tabletop. It’s compact, durable, and designed specifically for gamers — not carpenters — so every feature is tuned for smooth, rules‑clean play.

The core takeaway: 3 meters long, inches + centimeters, multiple stop locks, non‑slip grip, built for wargaming precision.

What It’s Built To Do

• Measure movement, ranges, and distances with exact accuracy

• Lock at any length using multiple stop functions

• Retract smoothly without whipping or snagging

• Stay grippy with a slip‑resistant handle

• Hang on your pocket or belt so it’s always ready mid‑game

This is the tape measure designed for Warhammer, AoS, Infinity, Malifaux, Flames of War, Warmachine, and basically any game where distance matters.
