Hmmm. I'm past the two week mark and I sent an e-mail on February 28th. I should have sent a bottle of booze with my order.

Still waiting for mine too. Drat I really needed it this past weekend.

Hopefully I'll get it soon.

Later,

I'm going to check on these. Some went out late as we ran out of the module inserts. But everything has shipped. If you guys could email me at troll@trolllord.com I would appreciate it. If you already did, please email me again as I was gone and came back to a mountain of emails that I haven't sorted through yet.

Thanks,

Steve

LOL Okay. I've got four MIAs so far. Some of these will have tracking numbers. I'll pick up the numbers this evening from the mail room and check into it.

Thanks,

Steve

I got my screen in the mail today. I have to say I am very pleased. XP tables, Treasure tables, laminated, and a cool adventure to boot. Very pleased!
PS You guys better have posters to sell of the full art piece at GenCon.

One of the guys in our group picked his up from the local gaming store. Man, that is a sweet screen. I hope I get mine soon!

Just got mine today. Very sweet screen. It's the appropriate height, has a kick-ass picture, and is big enough to hide all your notes and dice.

My only point of contention is that the middle fold seems to be backwards, pointing back to the CK. That's just a minor quibble though, and not a big deal.

I have to say that this is the most useful screen I've seen in ages!

I haven't looked over the adventure yet, so no commentary either way on that. I do think that better paper stock could have been used for it.

Kudos to everyone involved!

It is *quite* a nice screen and was put into service in last night's game.

The player's liked it too!

I did notice one error under Sizes (with height ranges to determine S M or L). Instead of Small... the word Size is used to describe creatures under 5 feet in height. No biggie but pointing it out in order to correct it in future runs.

Just love it though... great work once again and I'm sure the module is top notch as well!

All the folds point away from me on mine. So I would say yours was improperly folded. Which probably means others were too.

Mine screen is like DHs, the center crease is pointed towards the CK. Hmm. Weird. I just bend it back the other way when I use it. It hasn't affected the fold in anyway... yet.

Hmm, this seems right for me. If it were reversed, the inside sides might me seen by players. And I can push that center fold out a bit and it works great for me.

Methinks Canada has a customs issue with anything involving the word "crusade." I tried ordering a book from Chapters (which I couldn't find in any of the bookstores near me, and they didn't have it listed online in their catalogue) that had the word in its title and it took much longer to get here than other items. Next time, I'll just drive to St. Catharine's... or walk. It'd be faster.

I'm just worried that if I do that, it'll cause some damage. What I just tried was to get the middle two panels straight when I unfolded the screen, and that seemed to work perfectly. Then I'm not doubling it back, as it can fold the way it came.

Still, a fantastic screen. Best I've seen since my old AD&D screen. (Though I love my DL screen too!)

I was disappointed with the quality of the d20 DL screen. Beautiful art, just extremely thin and flimsy screen.

Didn't keep me from using it though. I taped Traveler's CK screen pages over the d20 info.

Probably shipped via military mail (just guessing here) from the States. That would be a pretty quick turnaround.

Yeah, military mail. Things get here fast as long as they are sent priority mail. Otherwise it can take 2 months for media mail.

I finally got mine yesterday!!!! Outstanding screen and I definitely dig it! I really like the layout, although I do get the whole "fold-in-the-middle" issue which doesn't seem to be too big of a deal after I just folded it back the other way. I like the fact that the screen seems laminated so I can wipe off any spilled beer.

If you are dealing with the Trolls, beer-resistant is a very good thing.
