Tech Tuesday - d20 Rugs & Game Tables including Geek Chic

Recently on NerdApproved.com, they heralded a d20 Rug that I think a lot of gamers would find fun to own.  See more here.

Also, on consimworld.com, they posted some pictures of what the deemed one of the coolest game tables ever.  See more here.

Of course the question one has when such a claim is made is if it is as cool as a Geek Chic table like the one showcased on The Awesomer website here.

Artist Nick Acosta has taken original series Star Trek cuts and used them to piece together stills of what it might have looked like in Cinemarama.  See more here.

Finally, a short fan film called The Verse gives us Browncoats a little something to keep us flying while we wait for the shiny.  Enjoy.
