Oh! Should have said something about the game room, too...
Thirty feet by roughly fifteen feet wide (on average), and in my basement. Shelves all the way around the game room proper for books, miniatures, and scenery; there's a cork board for maps with a shelf for props underneath, because I like to hand an actual object to the players when I say "You find this...". There's a small fridge for refreshments and a sound system.
The game room continues into what we call "The Lounge", where there are more shelves for reference books and the group's party supplies; TV with VCR and DVD players; a sofa-bed for guests; the curtained-off alcove for large scenery and terrain items like Dave's big sailing ship we used in the April game event.
We can seat ten players very comfortably, and up to fourteen at a pinch; I try to limit game sessions to ten, though, as then everyone gets more of a chance to play. We can focus the track lights for either miniatures or RPG games, and they are on dimmers as well. The carpentry work is mostly mine; furniture by Ikea and our favorite industrial surplus store.
Not shown, due to space, are the Tekumel costumes on their mannequins; these are all in storage at the moment due to a lack of space.
yours, Chirine
