Gift Guide for Tabletop Gamers

Gift Guide for Tabletop Gamers

Whether you are looking for a gift for your forever DM, a new player or a multi class expert who knows the handbooks backwards, there's always going to be something for someone. The range of gifts here are all from small UK based Businesses, and are suitable for Tabletop gamers of all ages!

1. Dice.

Whenever you start a new roleplaying game, it's important to have the correct dice. If you only ever use one set of dice, then make sure they're well balanced, beautifully made and robust. There are all sorts to choose from; Plastic, mass manufactured dice are a great starting point but if you want a really nice set of dice you would do no wrong with dice from exquisite goth themed eco-friendly dice from Jodie's Dice Farm or perhaps resin based dice from Dice of the Seeker, or perhaps you'd like space themed dice, then Dark Sky Dice is just for you!

Handmade dice are unique, they're made with care, and each set is always different. 
If your budget is slightly lower then dice from Bindwood Gaming might be just for you.

2. Taking in game notes

There are different ways of storing notes from notebooks to designated filing systems.

Character Journals from The Tinkerporium are great and they are also themed depending on your class. They're sectioned to help you organise your character and adventures.
