...And a 10-Foot Pole (Rolemaster Standard System) Review

...And a 10-Foot Pole (Rolemaster Standard System)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
As a gamemaster, you are often stumped by strange questions from your player - how much does 50' of rope weigh? how much luggage can you fit in a wagon, how much for a jar of honey.
If you have every tried to run a fantasy or historical roleplaying game, this is the book for you - it lists thousands of different items, with approximate availability for up to 10 different technology levels (from stone-age through to late middle-ages/renaisance), with rules for adjusting pricing based on market availability; the average size and weigh of each item, how breakable they are, what materials are used in their construction, etc. Of course, where necessary, they provide game statistics for Rolemaster, but don't let that put you off - This title is an absolute MUST for any gamemaster.

These rods are perfect in every way except they are approx 1 inch shorter on both ends. Not a big deal, but they are. Does not affect play. I looked at allot of oprtions including getting my old rods re-chromed (approk $35 - $40 per rod). I'd go this route again.

Sportcraft Volleyball Net and Post Set Review

I was looking everywhere for a good sturdy volleyball system that wasn't going to cost me more than $100. I went to Sports Authority several times and most of the systems that I saw there were made of very cheap looking PVC pipe and didn't have half the features of this great set. So I went and bought it from Target, which is actually where you are buying this set from even if you order from here.
So I bought it early in the morning one day before going to the beach. It must have taken us about half an hour to set up. It isn't very hard to follow the instructions that it brings and once you attach the tensioners on the pole, you never have to do it again, and everything else just snaps together. The included sand discs were a life saver because we quickly realized the stakes would not hold solid in the sand.
Once we had this thing set up, we found some other people on the beach and played a few games. When we got tired and were heading for the water, another group of people just started playing on our court! We told them that as long as they took care of it, that it was fine. One kid landed on one of the poles and nearly knocked it over, but all he had to do was pull it straight which only took a whole two seconds. After they were done, we played another 5 games. All in all it made our beach trip very very enjoyable and I love this thing. I'm looking forward to many more beach days with it. (I live in miami).
My only recommendation is that you go to walmart or a hardware store and buy 180 feet of cheap yellow rope because the very thin white one that comes with the set for marking the court boundaries is hard to see. Once you have the rope, tie or crimp the ends together. When you set up your court, simply stretch the rope in a rectangle, and now you have your more visible court boundary. You might also want to bring a small shovel with you to the beach to bury the sand discs. No hammer required unless you are playing lawn volleyball.

Park & Sun TS-2MS Spectrum 2000 Volleyball Set Review

Park and sun make so many models. I vasilated between buying a cheaper set or spending the xtra bucks on the better grade, higher priced model. I'm sure glad I went with the Spectrum 2000. It arrived in good shape and very quickly (4days). I was not given a choice on what color.I was concerned because I read another person got an orange one. To my suprise I got a blue and thats the color I wanted. The poles were thicker and telescopic to three hights, the othes didn't offer this feature. The pins were 10 in. most others were 8 inches. This made a difference in staking out the poles in soft soil. It went up in a very short time. Very easy to take down and put up. The carry bag is convient to transport to my son's home as well as the beach. I an quite pleased and feel I got more than I even ecpected.

Park & Sun TS-CL Spectrum Classic Volleyball Set Review

This has been "the" outdoor net system for serious outdoor grass players for over twenty years, and I see nothing changing. The poles are the easiest to set up I've ever used, very sturdy, and set up a tight net.
The net itself on the system I received was defective. This is very rare for this company, and even more rare was the service I received when I called their toll free number: immediate satisfaction. They didn't even ask that I bother to send back the defective net, just take a digital photo and send it over the internet. Oh yea, they sent the net before I even got around to sending them the e-mail! This meant that my high school girls team could use it at the time I had planned. This service is greatly appreciated by our team, and I'm a customer for life.
This system has been updated since the days I played competitive outdoor ball, and the new tightening handles on the guylines are entirely effective, no-slip, very easy to use and strong. What more could one ask for?
Overall, if you're a serious outdoor player, you could not go wrong with this system. There are other systems that put up a great net, but none that are this easy to set up.Thomas Barefoot

Easton Platinum Volleyball Set Review

Easton Platinum Volleyball Set
Average Reviews:

When the box arrived at my door right away I was impressed at how large it was. This is nothing like the cheap volleyball/badmitten/horseshoe combo sets you can buy in a store and all the pieces fit in a tiny bag. This thing is solid and well made. This thing is built to last and stand up to some hard use.
The things I like about this set are:
* Comes WITH ball and ball pump.
* Comes WITH a large nylon bag to store the thing in when not in use.
* Has durable metal ground stakes that the the poles fit over, so you aren't making huge holes in the yard.
* The poles themselves are very sturdy thick aluminum, I'd say 2 inches in diameter if not more.
* Comes with guide ropes that are very sturdy yellow braided nylon.
* The net appears very well made, unlike some of the tangled thin messes you get in a cheaper set.
* The net has 3 adjustable heights 7 feet, 7' 4" and 8".
* There is also a feature with the net so you can keep track of score
* There is of course an instruction guide, which includes official rules to the game.
The ball itself is pretty nice it's got kind of a "cushy" feel to it. Much better than the uber hard ones that make red marks on your arms. In school when I played volleyball most of the balls were much better quality than the one included here, but really - the one they included is a fine alternative. Unless you are really taking your volleyball seriously, this ball will be fine. And if you do take your volleyball seriously, then you'd already HAVE a better model to use.
This set is going to be good for jr/sr. high school age kids, college students, or drunk relatives at family reunions. It seems so much sturdier than many sets on the market. I think if someone stumbles into the net it's not going to break anything, which is all you really can ask for when getting a volleyball set.
