thanks for the reply, but I don't think Tile Overlays will work, I
want the overlay to remain constant land area, not screen area.
I am looking to draw a grid with a fixed, real world size, lets say
100 km square, that remains at a constant 100km-sq regardless of map
zoom.

I could draw a huge overlay for the whole globe, but this has to be
very high rez to look any good, and seems wasteful given I am using a
repeating grid pattern.

Obvioulsy the real world area of a tile changes drastically with zoom,
as they are reative to screen space.
