I Would Be Green With Envy If They Weren't Such Nice Folks

I just got back from visiting a truly exceptional gaming setup. The owner had posted pictures of his gaming table on ENWorld, and while checking out their website here, I noticed they were in the Houston area. I dropped him a line and he invited me and The Missus to check out their setup in person. It's just as impressive in person, I'd daresay, and the crew who use it are first-rate folks (They actually invited us to sit in. If I weren't so incompetent at D&D at the moment, I'd have taken them up on it.)

Anyway, follow the link. It's one hell of an impressive setup and they're constantly working to improve it.

I remember seeing that a ways back on ENWorld. Yeah, it does rock.

I would be honored to play at such a Conference Table of Gaming Functionality. It doesn't necessarily support my group's current lounge-around-in-beanbags style of play, but we could learn.

Not bad, but a little too "sterile" for my tastes (all that white...).

Have they seen <a href="http://www.agyris.net/v3/ugt/table_gallery/default.asp">the Ultimate Gaming Table</a>? A little more ambiance, and I love the message spheres set-up (the holes lead to each player's station).
