[QUOTE="Kae'Yoss, post: 3347672, member: 4134"] All you Ikea-Haters are just envious that you can't afford Bertby display cases for your miniatures :p I have 6 of them in the Dungeon, and plan to buy another two sometimes this year. I also have 2 Flärke bookshelves. I find them to be quite good (in both quality and looks, as well as assembly), and reasonably-priced, too. If Ikea were to make a proper gaming table with all the trimmings, with a reasonable quality and an equally reasonable price, I'd of course buy it. It depends on what they'd put into it, of course. I'd say a big area for the battlemat with minis and buildings and tiles and whatever, and a second tier below that where each player has enough space for his character sheet, a (small) pile of books, some dice rolling space, and place for a small bowl of offerings to the Snack God as well as a glass. It would have to accomodate 6 people all in all (maybe even 8) and have some extra love for the DM: With a built-in DM screen with a pin-board to either side so you can pin pics, charts, and stuff to it, and retract it into the table if you don't need it for the moment. Maybe some space for mouse, keyboard, and flatscreen. Extra space for more paper and books. And, of course, buttons to electrify disruptive players. The city naming thing never ceases to amase me. I'm living a couple of km away of the real Schaumberg. it's got a small tower on it (there was a castle on it once), which had a huge cross on it. That cross were to be taken down from the tower and wrecked a couple of decades ago, but the workers (a pious lot apparently) refused to destroy the holy symbol and instead took it to a small hill a couple of km further. I can see the famous Schaumbergkreuz whenever I drive off the A1 (which I do daily). [/QUOTE]
