    D&D 5E Linking LMoP and PotA

    Thanks guys. Handy thoughts and ideas. I think I'm going to make the Black Spider working for a cult looking to uncover the Forge of Spells to power their orbs. I am also liking that the drow forged the cult items in the Forge of Spells back in the past. I'm going to steal the idea of the...

    D&D 5E Linking LMoP and PotA

    Hello all Anyone have any good suggestions to link these two adventures? Specifically I'm wondering if anyone has worked a connection between the Black Spider and the cults? Also is there potential to link the Forge of Spells with the weapons of the cults at all? I'd really like it if there...

    Logging into the Compndium in Java code

    Can any of you java experts help me? I've built a single class/app that shows my problem connecting to the Compendium API. When I try and connect it always takes me back to the login form without the two sesison cookies I'm expecting to have enabled. package info.rodinia.tokenmaker; import...

    Exclusive details on the DDI API (not a repeat...)

    I hope I don't get lynched for Thread-romancy, but is this mechanism still valid and still alive? I've been trying it recently and all I get are 500-errors. If not, is there a more up to date mechanism? This whole topic is amazingly difficult to find useful, up to date and correct info...

    Hi Steel Wind, I am at work now, but will try and remember to take a picture tonight of the Games Room from a sort of side on view. I think I can capture it. We have the projector mounted on a side wall, facing virtually straight down, but angled slightly out. Amazingly enough this...

    Wifi Option for BenQ When I bought my BenQ PB6210 I was surprised to see in the manual that it was compatible with the "BenQ Wireless Pro" option. I wondered what that was and struggled to find much about it on the internet. Anyway, it has finally been released - even if only in Canada so...

    Cheers. I should point out that we are playing at dining room height on a standard dining room table in a fairly small bedroom (which is now our Games Room). As you can see from the pics, the projector is mounted on the side wall of the room and happily projects an image down onto the table...

    Projector Pics Gyrolock turned up early so last night we set it up in the Games Room. Well pleased with the results. We spent about an hour trying different configurations of projector placement and set ups to get the best image on the table top. All in all I am very pleased with the end...

    Got My Projector Well, I've gone ahead and taken the plunge. Bought myself a BenQ PB6210. I also have the Gyrolock ceiling/wall mount on order which looks like it's going to be the business. I set the projector up last night, connected it to my tablet pc and stood on a chair, holding the...

    Steel Wind - any chance of an answer to these questions? Thanks, mate! :D I have just changed the light fitting in the Games Room to allow a projector to be mounted along side it and I've managed to convince the GF that a ceiling mount would be okay. So I'm really close to actually buying...

    Hmmm, I think I am going to have to sweet talk the GF into letting me buy a universal ceiling mount for this projector. The Unicol Gyrolock GKC looks like the business and can tilt and swivel in all directions, so I think this one should do the trick if mounted pretty much as close to the...

    Okay, I got the go ahead from the GF for buying a projector! Wahoo! I am pretty much convinced that the BenQ PB6210 is the one for me. Its expensive over here, but what the hell, eh? So, my next issue becomes a practical one. How am I to mount it? The GF doesn't want anything which is...

    Would you expect to be displaying streaming video and the like onto the tabletop during a D&D session? (remembering that I only want a projector for D&D, not for use as a telly). Seems that Wifi really does solve my issue of not having my tablet pc attached to the ceiling via a wire, but at...
