Message: <blockquote data-quote="Matthew Perkins" data-source="post: 7964985" data-attributes="member: 6983067">I have a nightmarish number of DMs screens here, fourteen in total, a colossal burden that I'm willing to weigh, measure and rank from worst to best, likely as punishment for some misdeed in a past life.[MEDIA=youtube]VJjtA4pcDzQ[/MEDIA]I'll rank every screen out of five points. One point for art, one point for each GM-facing panel.Art's pretty subjective, so as long as the player-facing side is competently done, that an easy point to get.But for the panels, just want the information to be feasibly useful to some theoretical Dungeon Master out in the world somewhere and the layout to use space effectively.There are a few surprises here. Compared to all the module-specific screens, the original screen is actually really good — 4/5! There's a few really tragic releases, but for recent modules, some of these screens are hitting absolute dingers.This video was way harder to film than I would have expected, so I really hope you check it out and let me know how you'd rank these offical screens.But in brief, here's my rankings:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Dragon Heist (5/5)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Saltmarsh screen (5/5)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Tomb of annihilation (5/5)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Avernus (4.5/5)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Out of the abyss (4/5)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Normal screen (4/5)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Limited Edition (4/5)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Reincarnated Screen (3.5/5)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Mad Mage (3.5/5)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Princes (3/5)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Storm King's Thunder 2.5/5</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Curse of Strahd (2/5)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Tyranny of Dragons screen (2/5)</li> </ul></blockquote>
