[QUOTE="AdmundfortGeographer, post: 2230886, member: 4682"] My first thought when seeing this thread title was, "Ah! New magic item!" Heh. Seriously though, there is a fellow who I have seen at local RPGA conventions wheel in a device that I would swear was a tall portable fishing lure box. I mean tall, as in about 4 feet tall. It has three "levels" of boxes, stacked over each other. The boxes are each on rails that slide out. In one box, all of the rule books he needed, with spine up. About 30 hardcover WotC books fit. The next box fit all of his minis (hundreds of them) in a fishing lure box that opened up like you might imagine a fishing lure box might, with mini shelves on hinges all stretching out like wings. The top box had his mini painting supplies, he painted minis while he gamed. I gamed with him, and his painting never interfered with the gaming. Interestingly he could paint about 2 minis per RPGA slot. This whole device was on wheels, and just like heavy luggage, had a handle that could be pulled out of the back and extended. The top of this thing he used to lay out his character sheet, roll his dice, and keep at least one rule book open at an angle leaning against the extended handle. About the coolest thing I had ever seen. [/QUOTE]
