Starting at $399 for the 36” x 36” (91 X 91 cm) and going up to the $899 48” x 72” (122 x 183 cm) play area, these toppers include maps with beautiful artwork for the mats.

They offer a leg kit to turn your topper into its own table. If you’re interested in a gaming table, this [B]Kickstarter[/B] may speak to you.

Housed at the Scottish Rite – They have a picture of the building on the [B]Kickstarter[/B] page, it’s that American mix of “modern castle” and “European” apartment building that is exciting architecture for us, but [I]maybe[/I] lackluster for Europeans – with rooms for board games, card games, miniatures, LARPing, RPG events, a marketplace, and more. If you’re a fan of tabletop gaming and near this area, it’s worth checking out this gamer friendly, local con.
