That sounds awesome, Firebeetle! And I grew up in Stover, MO--small world!

As you turn the corner, you see something on the wall. It appears to be words scribed in blood. Who has Read Walls? Nobody? Well, move along then. Nothing to see here.

I've known some people who could stand to learn Read Silently.

Somebody used to manufacture a "blank" screen with four panels, where you can slide in whatever you want in front and back. "Master Screen" maybe? Anyway, I filled the DM side with quick explanations of combat maneuvers, turn undead, skill DCs, item hardness, light sources, etc. Basically, all the main info & charts that get referred to in play, but don't appear on anybody's character sheets.

Edit: Masterscreen from Citizen Games. No clue if they still make it (or indeed if Citizen Games is still around).

I think the biggest selling point for the new DM Screen is it can stop a bullet *nods* So the DM shall be safe from any frustrated players

My Master Screen (?) is almost 10 years old and I still use it. It is solid, it stands up on its own, and I can change out the information by simply changing a sheet of paper. It is perhaps the best $20 I have ever spent on a gaming accessory.

"Master Screen"

That sounds really sweet. The only thing I ever used DM screens for are (1) relevant maps, (2) names of relevant NPCs and (3) material hardness and HP. Obviously the first two need to be switched out all the time, so this sounds right up my alley.

Looks like Citizen Games is out of business though. That's a bummer.
