Gallows, that storage setup looks great.

Can you list what it's comprised of and where you got it?

Raaco box13 and different inserts. They fit the cards perfectly. I don't know if they ship everywhere, but I bought them in a local store.

They are great for storing everything for WFRP. I use them myself. I picked them up at a hardware store in Sweden, since their "intended" purpose is to store nails, screws, screw nuts and similar things.

I really love them, as you can pick up the inserts you want and put on the table and leave those that are not needed at the moment.

I always try to use the original boxes to store stuff. Until now I have the core box, Gm and player toolkit and Winds of magic (my signs of faith got lost in the postal office ).

In the core box (The GM Box)

- Plano box with all GM tokens and NPCs stands and carreer/team/nemesis corp cards

- Gm toolkit box with all books inside

- 4 player boxes (I made plus one) with cards, careers and his tokens

The winds of magic box (The player´s box)

- Players toolkit box with character sheets and most of small cards and all the action cards

- Small plano box with - Fadigue/Stress/ Generic Tokens/ Condition / wound cards and dice.

I still didnt figured out where to put the screen.

Now that I have a pile of gear I am using a Plano tackle box given to me by a pal who used to store model train parts and it is great for organizing the easily fumbled/inhaled bits. It is not nearly as squee worthy as the Raaco box Gallows uses but I'll make do. I am also a card-sleever, which is not for everyone. On that front, I picked up some 4"x5" poloroid size storage sleeves to fit the career cards and other similarly sized things (6 bucks for 100 of em at a photo supply store). Now when my 1.5 year old jams them in his mouth I know they won't immediately get soggy or covered in sticky kid-finger goo.

When it comes to mobility I have decided to use the core and adventurer's tool kit boxes for storing inactive materials not needed in a given session (no reason I can see to cart around a stack of career cards not appearing in the adventure if players aren't on the cusp of career hopping either). The stuff I will need is going in the plano box, which should make set up and break down a snap (the more fumbly "hey where is that counter" issues I have, the less likely my players are to fall for the new system).

I am going to GM my first session of Eye for an Eye in a couple weeks. I still have a couple hearts to win over in my player group, but we've been gaming together in all manner of systems for a seriously long time (geebus...coming up on two decades for a couple of us). However, with the ideas in this thread and my own neurotic organization I think I'm ready to throw down on 3E.

I have found that useful:

Stanley Tools, around 15 EUR in Holland

Okay, I'm going to try this again. I apologize if the pictures don't work.

Part of my challenge when organizing is I don't always know what I'll need for the adventure before hand. When I do I make up binders with the stuff I need, but otherwise I bring the whole collection so I can find stuff on the fly.

So, here's the kit I bring to the game each week:

After a friend's five-year-old shared a car ride in the back with my stuff I learned to keep the components in boxes with latches of some sort.

I found thes utliity boxes in Staples and discovered they are the perfect size for both the regulard sized cards and the minis. I think players like being able to flip through them when advancing their characters so I keep the action, spell, blessing and talent cards lose. I also have the location and object cards in decks like these.

And the random decks... the wound cards, insanity, miscast, disease... you know, the fun GM stuff goes in it's own special box. The other one there has the dice and stance pieces. And corruption, mutation and other GM counters are in a little Plano plastic box. At the moment the generic tokens and stress & fatigue toxens are also in a wooden box, but I'm going to replace that with another segmented Plano box soon.

But the real stuff is in binders. At the moment I have three binders... one for NPCs, one for "monsters", and one for chaos & undead. Some 35mm slide sheets keep the creature stands, followed by creature cards and action cards. This way if I suddenly decide to throw, say, a couple dozen Nrglings and a Beast of Nurgle at the players cause, well, sometimes you just have to, it's a simple matter of grabbing the right binder, flipping to the Nurgle section and having everything in one spot.

Sorry about the glare, but here you can see the creature stands on one side and then a couple pages over the cards. Even the large stands, like the trolls, fit nicely in the sleeves. The normal stands do have a tendency to slide out, so I have to be careful transporting them.

And finally I have my GM Binder. It has my rules summaries and FAQ as well as the Book of Imperial Names (a wonderful resource), for quick reference. I keep a couple sets of the basic action cards sleeved in it, so I can just pull them all out for an encounter. And then all the condition cards are alphabatized in sleeves as well so I can quickly grab them during a game.

When I was running The Gathering Storm or if I had a strong idea of what was going to be needed for a session, I would make a binder that had all the relevent cards I expected to use. Then I'd just have that and the GM binder and my bits and be ready to go.

Gallows, that set up is amazing!

I live in Australia, and I'm finding it very hard to find these RAACO boxes out here - do you have part numbers or anything required to put your kit together?

It's brilliant, thanks for sharing!

I think it may be a danish company. I just ordered two new boxes and they fit so ferfectly. I order them from www.cchobby.dk and you can find raaco on the web as well. I think the best bet is to ask a retailer if he can find them for you or something similar - or contact raaco.

They are brilliant because you can take out the small plastic boxes and build your cases as you like.

Two card folders for action cards and monsters, everything else fits (relatively) neatly in the original box, which is marvelous on account of it's sturdiness.
