[QUOTE="teitan, post: 8612667, member: 3457"] Caught up. So… I keep seeing the DM screen being included as a justification for the cost increase as a “bonus” but since all the DM screens are basically the same with different art… how many screens do you need and since they literally include a DM screen in every slipcase and box set is it really value added? Especially if the two already available slipcases include a DM screen already? Does the new one include ship to ship rules? Wel that’s a limited use screen and is some value added if it is the case but if it is just the same old charts repeated from the other screens? the gift sets are big sellers. The core books and the new expansion set are value sets that are great for new players. So other than thematic art the screen is nothing to write home about. Instead it could have been a collection of ship tokens for ship to ship combat with a box to keep them in that can fit in the slip case as well. No it’s the least imaginative value add they could do. I have 6 fifth edition DM screens, two of them being the same as the expansion gift set is just the Essentials Kit screen on the better boards, the Rick & Morty Screen, Stranger Things, Starter Set screen, Reincarnated Screen. So chances are DMs buying this already have a screen. [/QUOTE]
