Landscape format cardboard DM screen?

[Dimitri Mazieres]

Does anyone knows if there was ever a cardboard landscape DM screen produced for 3.5? I really like the landscape format, but the Eberron screen that I have seems a bit flimsy, and I was looking for something like the cardboard screen for 4e, or the Pathfinder screen (but in landscape format).

The 3.5 D&D screen that came out with the 3.5 books (and was bundled with a d20 modern screen) is landscape format. It's a very servicable screen as far as tables go, but it's standard very flimsy screen material.

Your best bet is to look into something like the Savage Worlds customizable screen. It's basically 3-ring binder material with slip covers on both sides that you can fill with whatever charts you like.

Ask a FLGS if there's one nearby.

I was afraid that was the case. I wonder if buying two of those at cheap prices and gluing them together would work... ?

Unfortunately, I don't have a FLGS. My only option is to buy online
And, what can I say, I like my screens to have pretty art on the players' side

Then buy it online! It's pretty great - it's what I use in my games. It's durable, and mine gets a lot of use as I'm constantly swapping out stuff in the pockets between games. Plus, it has outward facing pockets, so you can even have pretty art for the players as well.

Thanks! I heard that it was out of print, but it seems it's finally available again! I'll consider getting it.

Another vote for Pinnacle's customizable screen here.

I was spoiled by the landscape format waay back with my Elric! screen. The Pinnacle screen is the last GM screen you'll ever have to buy. I've used it for Savage Worlds, Unisystem, Labyrinth Lord, and even Castle Falkenstein. If you don't mind doing the work to create your own screens, it's fantastic! For the front covers, just steal artwork from the internet that speaks to your campaign. I can't recommend it enough.
