Review - Warhammer Roleplay Screen

Title: Warhammer Roleplay Screen Written By: Games Workshop Design Studio Price: �11.95 Publisher: Hogshead Publishing Pages: One four-panel screen and two sixteen page booklets Reviewer: General Tangent. Contains What you get in this Warhammer accessory is a heavy card screen and two booklets. The Screen The screen is nice and contains all the important charts from the main rulebook. My main criticism about this screen is the internal layout on the games-master's side. It took three playing sessions before I located the hit location chart. The reason it is difficult to find is that it is on the top right hand panel and not on the central panels. The player side consists of nothing apart from two old covers from White Dwarf. The main good looking part is the computer rendered map of the Old World that has impressed everyone that has seen it. You can get this map as a poster directly from Hogshead. The Two Booklets As I mentioned before, there are two booklets with this screen. One booklet contains an invaluable index of the main rulebook, and an Imperial calendar. The back page is a reprint of the equipment list from the book. The second booklet is a revision of the critical hit tables from the main rulebook, and it has the fumble charts from White Dwarf 91/ Apocrypha Now. The back of the booklet also has a summary of how critical hits work. Summary Purchase of this item is not necessary but it does make the job of games-master a lot easier! This is also the first item reviewed to be given a 5/5 rating in anything. Ratings Overall: 3/5 Value For Money: 4/5 Usefulness: 4/5 Presentation: 5/5
