This product consists of a 3-panel screen with the usual player-side art and collection of handy tables for the GM, plus a selection of floorplans for those who like to use miniatures.

The GM's tables are laid out clearly and make it easy to find what you want even in the heat of combat - and combat is what Hack-n-Slash Fantasy Roleplay is all about, after all. The player-side artwork is a bit disappointing from a company with high design standards like Digital Alchemy - formulaic and cartoonish, with one female fighter wearing the most uncomfortable-looking chain vest (no padding and no support for her form!) that I've seen in a long time... bring back the chainmail bikini! The males don't fare much better, a leather posing pouch does not provide much protection in a brawl!

The floorplans are very generic, fine for a scratch fight but if you have done any serious designing for the dungeon in which your crawl takes place, you might want to look at some of the more specialised floorplan sets available.

Overall, useful for the tables alone.
