Why we say this

What this recommendation is based on

A 25.6 x 18.9 inch four-player compatible mat provides the component bound; the recommendation adds hand and supply clearance.

Measured components: A documented board, playmat, or complete-layout component dimension establishes a physical lower bound; surrounding play clearance is modeled.

Dimensions are planning recommendations for the declared setup, not universal physical minima. Layout, edition, scenario, organizers, helper apps, and expansions can change the result.
