[QUOTE="aco175, post: 7308464, member: 27385"] I was deployed in the early 90s so technology was way different. Some material was sent to me since I could not find room to pack my books in the deployment bag. I remember having some photocopies of some stuff and some dice that were shared. What would be great to send is something like the free starter set of rules for level 1-5. It contains all the basic things you need. Maybe some printouts of monsters you could encounter and a few printed modules weather AL or not. All of this can be thrown away or left when he leaves the station. A few other things that come in handy may include one of the small notebooks with graph paper inside, 3-ring binder for keeping all the photocopies inside, extra dice, and some sort of mat to place figures on for mini play. There may be some blank ones or something that can be printed and put in the binder as well. People can use coins of something as their mini and do not need actual figures. I remember having a BINGO game from a dollar store that had little tiles with the number on that were used for monsters. Hopefully today they have better support and a printer to use. [/QUOTE]
