Sorry that this isn't a better scan and you can't see the labels. My HP desk-jet is a waste of space and electronic resources.
Anyway...
I play dungeons and dragons from time to time. Problem is I can't usually make contact with my dungeon master and I don't get to do it very often. So, the other day I was talking to a friend about it and he was flabbergasted that a girl would know so much about D&D. He suggested that I become a dungeon master and how cool it would be to have a female DM. I'm not sure I'm actually going to do it because I have a life and becoming a DM is a huge investment of time, but it got me thinking, what if you had a bunch of campaigns with lots of journeying and you wanted to play out these campaigns without the use of a computer, and still without skipping over the journey part? You would need a huge map and that would take up tons of space.
But not necessarily!
What if you had this long piece of paper where you drew out your map and there was a scroll at each end. Above it is a clear plastic game board to indicate feet and yards and so forth. When the players move forward a large extent, then all you have to do is roll the scrolls in the right direction and there they are, further along the path. Of course you could only do this in a backward and forward direction but this would be a huge space saver! Not to mention the players wouldn't be able to see the landscape that they haven't actually come across yet.
Not only that but all this could be put atop a box with a drawer where figurines and various other D&D materials could be stored for the DM's convenience. Not only could you hide the landscape that lies ahead but also the little toys of the enemies you intend to throw at them!
I feel like this is a really cool idea and I would love to get some feed back from other Dungeons and Dragon's players.
