If you were one of the 500+ backers who helped get Quiver Gaming Gear Mats off the ground, this isn't much news to you, because you received the email that we did 7 days ago.

Today we're looking at a prototype, so the images you see are definitely not final, but we can surmise that the finished product will be spit-shined and looking slick when it hits your doorstep or FLGS shelves.
Let's jump in and take a look at Between Two Cities.
