OK - So a DM/GM screen needs to look good and hopefully help you to organize your information. This screen does the job, but it does have it's flaws.PROs- It is solid enough and it looks good on the player's side once the graphic inserts are slid into the clear plastic pockets. You can easily put pictures, notes or maps in over the inserts, which keeps the table much less cluttered.- The clear pockets are very useful on the DM's side to keep whatever information you need the most. No need to look at the same useless tables and annoying art for the next 3 years! The provided inserts are not great, but if you take the time to put your own information in these pockets, you really boost the usefulness of this screen. I suggest (1) Campaign details - Geography, City, Street, Shop and NPC Names. (2) Main stats and spells for the 'bad guys.' (3) Initiative Order.- Clear plastic cleans easily with dry erase markers. Great for initiative order combat/health tracking.CONs- The inserts, which are light gauge glossy paper, are difficult to get inserted into the pockets. You may not get the inserts all the way to the bottom of the pockets without creasing them, if at all. I suggest using card stock (or flat cardboard) on one or both sides of the insert to get it all to the bottom.- For the price, you're not getting a super heavy duty product. Be gentle putting too much stress on the folds.- Content on the DM-screens are never good, no matter who makes them, so no fault here - Don't assume you'll use the premade inserts to help you with your DM tasks too much.ALL IN ALL - Glad I got this. It helps our game.
