    Yes but they are a bit stale since they arrived at the warehouse in August.

    I think I may wait till the LOTR screen come out also and order both from Barnes and Noble and get a slightly reduced price and free shipping.

    Thumbs up Narrator's Screen Nears!

    A link from the Decipher boards to a news report of the NS' arrival at a games distributor.

    (sound of fingers drumming on table, waiting...)

    If I may ask or suggest, could you list what exactly is on the screen (what charts, tables, whatever), and what is in the booklet that comes with it? That'd be cool.

    Someone's not reading the threads. Don's already posted that info here.

    Enjoy!

    MMMmmm. Crow!

    *chomp chomp slobber*

    Congratulations Decipher on getting a product out during the month it was supposed to come out. On this try.

    On the other hand, I've just read Don's review, and with yucky char. sheets and pre-eratta charts, I'm most definitely going to give this one a pass (what, none of that could have been corrected during the six-month delay?).

    On the gripping hand, I wasn't real big on buying a NS to begin with, but this timely release hopefully means that things are back on track for the other releases, which I still do and always have intended to pick up.

    I personally was only going to buy the NS as a set thing. Just to have everything for the RPG, I personally like BrianK's screen and will be using it. I just want the SOM to be out by the 16 of February.

    Where can this be found? A search on "Brian K" doesn't reveal much. I'd like to take a look.

    Narrator Screen

    So, even with the NS arriving, people will find a way to gripe about things. Now, I am also disappointed that the screen carries erros pointed out in errata that haven't been corrected (on the other hand, the phaser damage table is corrected, damn asterik).
    However, I am glad the product is out. I will buy one or two screens. I will look forward to the other product as listed on the release schedule.
    By the way, fixing errata in the Limited Edition would be REAL nice if anyone at Decipher wants to learn a lesson from this. Errata in a NS based on the orignal printing is one thing, but for a LE set, it may be inexcusable.

    Its been a long time coming, but what is it about the NS that we're all getting so excited about? It's essentially an overdue piece of printed cardboard.

    I just hope we see some more releases from Decipher in the near future
