[QUOTE="Todd Roybark, post: 8003159, member: 6920677"] So here are a select grouping of photos from one part of my multiple RPG shelves. Notice how much more space the 4e style Gamma World box takes on the shelf compared to hardback RPG books. Now, I will direct your attention to the Beadle and Grimm box set. It dwarfs the dimensions of of the Gamma World box set, and the Beadle and Grimm box is significantly larger than the 3e Magic of Eberron book used as comparison. Beadle and Grimm’s Descent into Avernus is slightly smaller than B&G’s Dragon Heist, but not by much, and neither fit on the built in bookshelves that [I]I[/I] have. While almost all of my 40+ year old 1e books have traveled with me to multiple residences over my lifetime, neither the Greyhawk Box, nor the grey Forgotten Realms boxed survived. The Night Below box and Athlas box did not survive past high school. Not everyone lives forever in one home, with sufficient custom space to store big boxes like B&G Platinum sets and Gloomhaven on bookcases or shelving units. That might be your situation 3cat, but politely, I suggest if that is the case, it is a rarified circumstance. [/QUOTE]
