The upper floor, which has the RPG stuff, is now almost completely given over Warhammer 40K, in a large and impressive display. Nobody was actually playing Warhammer at the time, so I had the entire floor to myself. The RPG section in the corner has halved in size since my last visit, and the only "current" things I could see were some D&D (2024) players handbooks. They had a random selection of 5e D&D books (but no DMG or MM of any description), quite a lot of Pathfinder 1e (all at full price), some Pathfinder 2e and other books that they seem to have had for years - a fair few Call of Cthulhu supplements, for example, but nothing for the current edition. The Legend of the 5 Rings books they have are at least for the current edition, but they didn't have the core rulebook - I'd have bought it if they had, and might then have bought some of the other ones, but I'm not going to pick up supplements for a game I don't have the actual rules for.None of the staff ever seem to come up to that floor, so there is nobody to deal with any queries. The display is so cramped that if they did happen to have something I wanted the only way I'd know is if I picked through everything myself, which I've done in the past but usually can't be bothered with anymore. For the stuff on the bottom shelf, you pretty much have to sit on the floor if you want to read the spines.They used to have a little display area where they could show off something to entice customers, like putting the D&D core books where you could see the front covers instead of just the spines, but that space has now gone. I wanted Adventures in Faerun. They didn't have it, and there was nothing to indicate if they had it in the past or might have it in the future. I ordered it from Amazon when I got home.</blockquote>
