Gaming Table

Holy cow! Check out this guy's gaming table toward the bottom of this thread on the Mongoose Conan boards:

How Do You Play?

Wow that is great! Reminds me of another table. Would have to look it up again.

Anyway, that looks quite professional. When I get my upstairs game room finished, I'll have to find out if this guy takes requests. I'm sure shipping will be a bit high!

Though, the upstairs gameroom won't be finished until my pooltable/dartboard area gets finished.

Actually, building such a table would be quite easy to do. My only criticism is it does just what most of us have been saying needs to be thrown out. I mean, it totally makes miniatures the focus of the game. So much so, that it appears you can't even see the other players! Sorry, but I would not like this board/table at all. The game would be about the table and what was on it, rather than about imagination and adventuring...

Heya OG. Could you bring that Game of Thrones book on Sunday? If you are done with it. I'd like to loan it to Vince to see how it would fit with Inzeladun.

There are many games that I like with miniatures involved. But, instead of the boring squares, I'd have to have hexes. Would love to play battle tech again sometime.

Also, I don't mind the mini version of d20. Just makes the game more of a boardgame, which I prefer. Since I'm slowly losing interesting in pure Role playing games, instead of Roll playing games.

Hmmm. Well, I still don't see the great benefit of having the board raised. might as well just make the original table cool...

I wonder why you are losing interest in role playing....

Are you saying that you are less interested in the ROLE portion and more interested in the ROLL portion, or vice versa?

It would be nice for those of us who like to play on the floor.

True! I just wouldn't want it for rpgs.

Less Role, more Roll.
