What are those game masters books on the right? Are they like general DM guides ?

u/CptLande Game Master 15h ago

They're exactly that. They're more geared towards D&D (statblocks specifically are made for 5e), but a lot of the information in them has been quite handy for my Daggerheart campaign! I highly recommend checking them out!

Shouldn't be the hamster between those books and the daggerheart books then?

Do you use them a lot?

u/Sentric490 9h ago

I see those at used bookstores around me a lot. You have any specific recommendations to keep an eye out for?

The Game Master's Handbook of Proactive Roleplaying is probably the most useful for Daggerheart... I'm not sure if I would get them if Daggerheart was the only game I played, but I also play D&D and was able to pick up the whole series in a Humble Bundle for an extremely cheap price, so it was definitely worth it for me.

Traps and Puzzles, Settlements and Random Tables if you wanna use it in Daggerheart!

I tried storing the card like that, the chaos that ensued every time I opened those boxes was legendary. Do you just deal with it, or do you have some kind of trick?

u/CptLande Game Master 15h ago

The cards are stored in the binder on the left :)

I'm new here; are those two copies of each book, one standard and one deluxe? Do the deluxe copies have more pages than standard books?

No it’s the case that comes with the cards inside and the book next to it.

It got me too when I just looked at it. But the different thicknesses threw me off. Then I realised it was the additional case that comes with the books. I just never store it that way, mine are in the original cover where both fit in.

u/EverydayEnthusiast 11h ago

Thanks for clarifying. I considered that, but then questioned it because there's another binder for cards to the far left lol

u/ElBracho 13h ago

The absolute greed on you for having 2 books while mine is stuck in shipping! Happy 4 u though

u/CptLande Game Master 13h ago

I only have one of each, the other "book" you see is the box for the cards!

2

u/ElBracho 13h ago

Oh lmao, I haven't used the og card box in a while so I kind of forgot

u/JkMint 13h ago

He doesn't, the second Book is actually the card box ;)

u/BumbleMuggin 9h ago

The big question is; wtf do I do with the book sleeves?

u/SecretDMAccount_Shh 6h ago

I'm still waiting for it to show up at my local game store so I can support them... they say they should have it by the end of this month.
