Messenger bags or backpacks for gamers!

[Crothian]

I've got a bag from Charon Productions-"The Gamer's Satchel". It's pretty damn good. I'd recommend it (although the shoulder strap gave out a few weeks ago, after 2 years of hard use, but that's easily replaceable). It holds 4-5 books plus has a zippered foam tray for minis. ]

My shoulder strap is still fine, but the interior has ripped a bit with me trying to fit as many books into it each week as possible. THe first one I got the interior ripped badly but is still functional, the newer one is still holding up well. I'm rough on my bags.

Man, you are too funny!

I dunno -- those Cafe Press ones are good enough for me.

...the advantage of not needing to cart minis all over the place...

Besides, I love some of those designs!

Minis, schminis. No way one of those tiny messenger bags will fit just the books I bring to a session:
PHB, DMG, MM, MM3, XPH, Eberron, Magic of Eberron, Races of Eberron, character sheets, printouts of the druid and cleric spells from the SRD (makes it easier on the cleric and druid players to have their spells organized by level), and possibly more books depending on what the session'll be about (if they're going to be in Sharn, I'm definitely bringing the Sharn sourcebook as well).

You need a tote instead. A messenger bags or satchel would be afraid of breaking from the heft.

I'd say if you can't carry all your books in a clean garabage sack without it breaking, you should carry less books

The Charon bag is fantastic.

Mine's seen use for years now and shows no appreciable signs of wear. how far wrong cna you go for 20 bucks?

For awhile when I had to tote my stack of books around (about 15 books) I bought an army ALICE pack.. it was awesome
