Yes back on topic. Sorry to cause distraction...

A nice Screen, glossy on outside, matt on the inside? I have a 4 panel screen for Hollow Earth Expedition that is like that and it is gorgeous!

The two end pieces in the book would be great or even a fresh 4 page landscape original from Doug would be awesome! That and a booklet of tables that fits inside (like the HEX expanded combat sheet) would be very cool.

Yes, a DM screen that is four panels with original Doug artwork would be something awesome. Maybe even have a deluxe edition that is the same thing but has a vinyl cover much like the collectors edition.

I would like to see a small addition to the stat Block used in modules. Would it be possible to add the critical chat used by the monster and dice used please, this would cut down on having to check the book each time a monster out a npc rolls a twenty

This is where a GM screen would come in handy. I think that putting in a crit chart for every monster would really up the page count of the module but not really gain us anything other than a little convenience. Having some handy monster crit charts on paper or on a screen would be better than filling up the module, in my opinion.

I think he just meant the crit listing, as in "Crit 1d14/II"

After we've published the three Sunken City 0-level adventures this summer, our "M-Series" of adventures will begin this fall. They'll be a linked series of progressively higher level modules ala "Against the Giants".

I'd like that, too. In fact, I couldn't wait, so I put one together myself :)

I showed it to Doug at Origins yesterday and he heaped some high praise on it; he said the colors (from our nothin' special HP printer) looked better than the originals.

If you're wondering:

Artwork from dougkovacs.com (duh :wink: ). Tip: Laminate images after printing, that's what makes the colors pop.

Screen is a Citizen Games Masterscreen Quad. OOP, but w/ ebay there's always hope.
