Stratagem The Master's Tome 4-Panel Customizable GM Screen with Free Inserts – Dry Erase, Dungeon & Game Master Accessory for Tabletop RPG Campaigns (Black)

Greetings my fellow adventurers, I left the tavern shortly after our cheery group of adventurers finished up the initial quest and unlocked several tantalizing side plots (Seriously guys that goblin attack wasnt a random encounter it actually leads to a dungeon craw with countless, well ok 12 , but countless caverns filled with horrible green evil goblin groupies to kill! take the Damn lead! seriously, but I digress. ) and jogged on over to the interwebal mercantile under the giant lowercase a sign and evil orange grin, looking for a DM screen. i found this one quickly and after some deliberation, admittedly placing it my wishlist and then stopping by the local game shop to see if I could give them my slightly difficultly earned 1s and 0s in exchange for a screen for which I could make my own charts and edit monsters and generally hide notes from my eager adventuring friends. ALAS, no dice, well they had plenty of dice but no customizable screens like this one. So back to the story, I told you I digress. It arrived via the typical mysterious brown box on my door step in a very short time, I immediately opened it to find this treasure! its a high quality device of (red in my case) plastic. yep just what I ordered. The quality was what i expected. its essentially a quad folded binder cover type device. the outward facing tome looking graphics were of high quality and the whole unit seemed quite durable. the DM or GM inserts were also on high quality paper and the printing was crisp and clear. Sliding the pages into the sleeves is best done slowly as clear plastic isnt loose but seriously go slow and the pages wont wrinkle. It stands up nicely on the table and in the next game session i will snap a few soul captures of it and post them. I am pleased with the purchase and cant wait to use it to add more mystery to the next adventure. If you are looking for a DM screen you want to be able to customize buy with confidence. Happy Adventuring Friends

This Dungeon Master's (DM) / Game Master's (GM) Screen is great. I only recently started playing Tabletop RPG games because my kids all expressed an interest in playing Dungeon's & Dragons. They at the time were 13, 12, and 6 and none of us had ever played before. or knew what to do. Due to ages and unfamiliarity with the rules I decided I would have to be the DM. We enjoyed game play but we quickly discovered that it involved a lot checking and rechecking rules and spells and process in the books which was taking a lot of time, especially since we usually play only once a week to once every other week... just enough time to forget most of the rules. Enter this screen. It obviously gives me a physical screen so they can't see everything going on behind the scenes which is practical but I wonder if it might have been better to make it a landscape orientation as opposed to portrait as it's tall enough to also block my view of the table. My kids like the visual aspect of using maps and miniatures but this is tall enough that it blocks my view and I must stand up to look over it to see the table. It does have a total of 8 pockets but, effectively I would really only use 4. If it is being used as a screen then 4 face the table and 4 face the DM. Still, 4 pockets are enough to hold a lot of information. The pages come with one side geared towards pathfinder rules and other towards D&D 5e. I can't attest to the usefulness of the pathfinder sides as we've no experience with pathfinder but the sheets for D&D were pretty great. What's nice is that as we continue to play and the rules become easier and what info I want in front of me changes it's easy to change out the sheets. Of course the original sheets are larger than a standard paper which makes any sheets you create to put in it look silly because it doesn't fill the space the right way.

I’ve had this screen for about 18 months and thought it was time I write a review. First, I bought this primarily due to the fact that both sides of every panel can be customized with my own inserts. I’ve never found a DM screen that has exactly the information I want and this allowed me to make inserts that perfectly meet my needs. It also allowed me to put campaign related artwork facing the players. It works great for that. I can’t comment much on the inserts included as I briefly glanced at them, saw they had things I don’t want and tossed them. Others might find to them useful, but as I said, I bought this so I could make it meet my preferences. I like the size of it, but I always have a large table and like a lot of space, so this is great for me. I also like a tall set of screens to shield my references from wandering eyes. But, I know some have less space, prefer shorter screens, or otherwise might find this too large. Each panel is taller and wider than a letter sized sheet of paper, so it’s not small. Finally, after 18 months of use, I wanted to on durability. We play every other weekend. So, at this point I’ve unpacked and repacked it less than 50 times. And, seams where it folds have started to break apart. One of the clear covers on each side have started to break away so they will no longer properly hold an insert. I suppose that for the price getting 40-50 sessions out of it isn’t bad. But, if you are looking for a DM screen that will last years, this isn’t it. But, if you want your own inserts with the information you prefer and to be able to display your choice of art, this is great! Of course, I’d prefer it lasted longer, but my priority is customization at a reasonable price and this meets my needs better than any other screen I’ve found.

I was nervous when I saw that this was made of cardboard, but it's surprisingly hefty and sturdy. The pockets are easy to slide an 8.5"x11" paper into. I also really appreciate that there are pockets on both sides. This let's me display important info to my players like maps, monster images, terrain info, etc.

Me vino con uno de los insertos roto en la esquina.

Is very useful for simple fact you can change your GM screen when ever you change you game...

Very customisable setup that allows you to change in your GM-facing and player facing panel contents as you progress in the game or switch to other game systems.

After 40 years of being a Dungeon Master I nver knew how much I needed a customiseable GM Screen until now. Very well put together with 8 clear pockets to fill with all those charts tables and trackers that you need for a game. The outside pockets are a great way to add visual clues and remind your players of specific themes for the genre/setting you are playing. A tool for not just D&D or Pathfinder but every RPG game and setting

Adaptable to any game you're playing, this GM screen is good quality and solid. It's double-sided so you can put your own images and tables into it. I love it.
