Thanks for the suggestions. Realmworks looks very promising! I'll be returning to try that once it's released. I'm checking out RPG Manager for now, it looks to have a lot of the features I'm after.

I'm currently running a game of Basic D&D, and while I've always been a bit of a dinosaur when it comes to technology, I'm slowly converting to a more digital DMing style. My DM Screen has become the reverse side of my laptop monitor and I'm preferring it this way, but I feel there's so much...

I'd love to play. I've done a bit of D&D Next play testing and so far much prefer the system to 4E. I'm a big fan of the Planescape setting so if this game does go ahead I'm placing my vote in the multiverse.

Hadn't thought of it like that but yes you're probably right. All that strafing, jumping, running away to periodically hack at a pursuing enemy, it does feel, as you say, lacking in verisimilitude. And a good GM can make a turn based combat feel more like real-time, or at least give it that...

Haha yeah, 'Computer, load 2d6 kobolds'.

As I said, its more that I'm contemplating the connotations of such a program rather than suggesting it would be superior. And yes I'd forgotten about Neverwinter Nights. I tried to get involved in a campaign on there but too many lags, players not co-operating in a productive roleplaying...

Just googled it. As a trekkie I find this concept...fascinating.

I apologise if I've posted this in the wrong forum, not sure where this would belong, but this idea I had is almost abstract. Its perhaps more contemplative than theoretical but here we go. For the whole time I've been gaming - I'll specify this as pencil and paper RPGs to differentiate from a...

I like this idea. I'll think I'll go along with this as well as keep in mind a few other suggestions. Thanks for the contributions guys.

Oh right, I thought it was some special dnd thing. Good idea anyway.

Thanks guys, great advice. But what are war dogs?

Are you still recruiting? If so how would you feel about a rogue/assassin? Or maybe a wizard would be handy.

At the end of the previous scene I’d established that this man was an illusionist of some kind, or at least in possession of a very powerful item which enabled him to create extraordinary illusions, presumably the orb in his hands. My character doesn’t know this which I don’t like because it...

Hey there. I'm just looking for a few opinions and a bit of advice really. I'm running a solo game where the PC, Draknar, has begun play as a half-dragon human rogue 1. The level adjustment for a half-dragon template is +3 so Draknar's effective character level is 4. His AC is high at 20, due to...

Bloody hell! I can't wait to kick some ass, I hope this man's a good guy!

I received some old TSR Planescape books from a friend and after playing Planescape:Torment I was hungering for more action in the multiverse. The problem was it was all in 2nd edition AD&D (I'm a 3.5 player) and regardless of this I didn't have time to prepare a campaign anyway and didn't know...
