As long as you play in some public area, there is usually more place to put things. When you play in someone's house, you have a little less room, and sometimes the table is hardly big enough to put all stuff on.
To free room on the table while playing we try to remove as much as possible from the table that doesn't need to be there all the time.
I use a piece of MDF (wood-carton) to put all the Advances on. This way we can easily move the whole plate of cards from one place to another.
The same for the trade cards-stack. You can easily write down some numbers on a piece of paper to put the stacks there.
To make it look better I created this file. These are two A4's. I laminated them and glued them on a piece of think cardboard. This way also the total of all stacks can be moved from one place to another.
I use one pieve of 9 area's to put on the faced-down cards, and another to put on all the turned-in cards before shuffling and putting under the closed stacks.
Whe all the new advances are done. I'm going to make a file to paste on the MDF-plate for the advances too.
I can send the layered-psd file to Jonno to be placed somewhere on the site.
This is a preview version to see how it looks.
