In 2012, Paizo released a product for the Pathfinder campaign setting titled Distant Worlds, which described the other planets sharing the Pathfinder solar system. This mix of science fiction and fantasy paved the way for the release of Starfinder in 2017. Taking place in the same universe as Pathfinder, it is designed to be compatible, with characters, creatures, and spells easily converted. The rules are similar, with additional components to more easily reflect the science fiction influence. The supplies needed for the game are essentially the same for Pathfinder; a set of polyhedral dice, a character sheet, and something to write with. The Beginner Box has the base elements to get you going, but of course there are several accessories to enhance your experience.
Role playing games are super popular now, but games such as Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) have been around since the ’70s. Games similar to D&D such as Pathfinder and Starfinder have huge communities as well. These games involve players acting as characters in some imagination-fueled realm, created or described by the game master (GM). In D&D, the game master is known as the Dungeon Master (DM).
These games use books, maps, figures, and other items to build the fantasy setting and control the game. If you want to organize these collectibles and keep them in new condition, BCW offers several products to help.
Most ttrpgs require the use of dice. Many players enjoy collecting dice as a supplementary hobby as well. In either case, a way to securely store and transport your dice is an important consideration. The Spectrum Large Dice Bag is a great way to store a collection, sure to hold enough for any game needs.
Player Folios are perfect for organizing character sheets, cards, and related pages. These folios include eight 1-pocket pages for holding character sheets, plus four 9-pocket pages for holding cards.
If you prefer to organize your adventures in a 3-ring binder with more pages, BCW offers numerous binders and pages with various pocket configurations.
To transport spell cards, a few figures, dice and other tokens, a Prime X4 Gaming Box is a great size. The Prime X4 has a secure, latching lid. Four cells can each hold 60 sleeved cards, or partitions can be removed to accommodate double-sized D&D monster cards.
During the game, keeping control of your dice can help prevent unnecessary breaks and pauses in the action, especially when the dreaded “floor die” makes an appearance. The BCW Dice Trays will keep your dice contained and let you roll without fear of your dice scattering.
If you’re a DM, having miniatures for planned – and unplanned – adventures is important. Monster Pads, normally used to support cards in their storage box, work great to protect minis. Pictured here in a BCW Sorting Box, you can place an extra pad on top of the figures to prevent them from moving in the box and add another layer of security.
Magazine Stor-Folios hold your core gaming books or expansion books, character sheets, documents, and even folded maps.
Transporting a large collection of books is always an issue. The Board Game Bag can hold several books and accessories, helping keep everything organized.
Magazine Boxes will hold a larger collection of books and magazines.
To store and transport standard-sized playmats (24 x 14 inches), try a BCW Playmat Tube. Our tubes have one regular cap for containing the playmat. The second cap is more than just a cap… it’s a dice tray and holder. The BCW Playmat Tube comes with two six-sided dice.
To store larger mats, a BCW Poster Tube works great. These are three feet long and will accommodate most dungeon maps, star maps, and similar large RPG maps.
