Castles & Crusades: GM Screen

The Castle Keepers Screen is a complete four-panel shield for the beleaguered Castle Keeper to keep their notes, monsters, miniatures, and dice well hidden from prying eyes. This screen is a single accordion-style screen made of durable board and laminated for protection.

From the player’s side, this screen sports the Jason Walton Tribute covers, as seen on the C&C Castle Keepers Guide, 3rd printing, and the C&C Players Handbook, 8th printing. These paintings depict a giant efreeti coming from the sea of fire on one hand and the ruminations of a conquering party and their treasure on the other.

From the CK’s side, this screen holds a wide range of very useful material, allowing the CK quick reference for a variety of circumstances:

• Meals, Lodging, and Stabling: Prices for simple meals, a roof over the head, and where to put the steed are all front and center.
• Random Names: Taken directly from the Book of Names, this sampling includes scores of names for quick table use.
• Combat Maneuvers: All combat maneuvers from the CKG and the Players Handbook.
• Cover: Modifiers for cover.
• Ranged: Ranged combat modifiers.
• Situational Mods: Prone, attacking from a moving platform, and more.
• Surprise: CL adjustments to surprise, from time of day to character location.
• Impact of Negative HP: The effect of damage beyond zero and what the player character can do.
• Time and Light: A breakdown of the increments of a round and beyond, as well as the area lit by various light sources from mundane to magical.
• Turning Undead: All three classifications of undead and how many are affected by a successful turn.
• Unarmed Combat: Grappling rules, updated from the Players Handbook, 8th printing.
• Saving Throws: Each type and category of saving throw with the associated attribute.
• Movement Rates: A clear breakdown of several movement charts with arrows guiding what to do next.
• Swimming and Drowning: Swimming movement rates and drowning rules.
• Underground Movement: Underground movement rates based on terrain.
• Weather: A listing of weather types and the impact of moderate, bad, and severe conditions rounds out this massive info pack.

This single screen departs from our previous heavy board multiple screens. It is light, durable, and printed here in the United States of America.
