Message: <blockquote data-quote="John Quixote" data-source="post: 7651720" data-attributes="member: 694">For one reason or another, the places I've lived have never been suited to gaming.  Even though I regularly referee, I've always found myself travelling before playing, whether to a friend's house or a nice quiet spot on campus or the game room at the FLGS.  On that account, I like to keep it light and travel with the bare minimum needed to cover all the bases.The latest iteration of my "standard game kit" consists of the following: - A two-tier tackle box.  In the bottom tier are pouches containing dice (about five sets), Rory's Story Cubes, some poker chips (for representing large monsters on a grid), a set of chessmen (regular size monsters), and the little wooden blocks that represent armies from a retro Risk set (in case a mass battle breaks out).  In the top tier are pencils and markers, a pack of cards, various kinds of tokens (glass stones, bingo chips, you never know when they come in handy), and a variety of wooden and plastic game pawns (usually to represent PCs and their allies, but again, you never know how they'll wind up being useful).- A battle-mat.  These days it's a 1.5" gridded mega-mat, squares and hexes.  I've found that I prefer a scale of 1.5" = 10' for reasons many and sundry.  I'm still looking for an easy way to attach a couple of hooks or clips to the tackle-box so that the rolled up mat would come with it while in transit.- A couple of books.  Never more than three hardcover volumes, ever again, thank you very much.  Learned my lesson from playing revised 3rd ed.</blockquote>
