Putting the "Table" in Tabletop Gaming with Rathskellers

The problem with board games, especially miniatures-based ones, is the footprint involved. They just take up so much space, some more than others.

And, if you're like me, you'll have a ton of board games, and nowhere to store them. Storage is key.

Enter Rathskellers, with an array of super specially-designed tables just for gamers, with plenty of drawers, trays, card holders, LED lighting, and, of course, lots of tabletop space for endless dice-rolling action.

Just look at these pictures and tell me that doesn't make you drool (careful! not on the table!).

Tabletop Tip-off: The Walking Dead: All Out War


The Walking Dead have walked—or maybe hobbled—onto Kickstarter, courtesy of Mantic Games, the guys behind a slew of cheaper (and equally good) alternatives to the Games Workshop range.

The new game, The Walking Dead: All Out War, comes with all your favourite characters, plenty of zombies, and some cool scenery. The Stretch Goals are just ramping up, so now's the time to pledge to help fend off those undead.

It's worth pointing out that the designs of this are based on the comics, not the TV show, just in case you're wondering why some of the characters look noticeably different.
