Pens & Pencils

Unread post by drewkitty ~..~ »

I was just looking at last week's update, and noticed the new pencils. I like the updated Chi-Town Library pencil, and the Library of Bletherad.

The Rifts Pens (I got three) are very nice as a touch screen stylist. they slide nicely across screens while interacting with them.
But if you're a pen clicker when you are board then try to be careful with them. One of them Broke on me while doing that.

I've had my deck of B&W cards for years and has been happy with them.

Any of you have opinions on PB's not a gamebook merch?
May you be blessed with the ability to change course when you are off the mark.

I really liked the old pencils, but their erasers were always dried out so I finally stopped ordering them. The notepad looks fun, I plan to grab a few. I enjoy and frequently use their bookmarks. I like mugs, but I can't get over the design of their new Gamer mug with dice that have all 1's or 11's on them.

I think taking that notepad and using that as a basis for a new character sheet would be great

I like these items. I have the Rifts messenger bag and I find that and the post its get peoples attention at conventions. I will probably buy a few pad and pencil sets to use at convention games but what I really like is that smalls like these don't seem to take as much time away from making new books as say the hardcovers.

BTW does anyone know how big the tablet is? It doesn't look big enough for a character sheet but I agree with Matt it would be great to incorporate art into the character sheet.

Not going to lie, I'm absolutely in love with the Rifts pen. I'm not, like, a pen aficionado or anything, but it's a dang good pen and I use it for just about all the actual writing I do, which is very little.

its a bit smaller than an average sheet of paper as it stands, so the current size won't work for a char sheet unless we go two sided.

According to this weeks update it is 5X7 so it is way to small for characters.
