[QUOTE="Osgood, post: 7685679, member: 32792"] I like the idea of a digital tool--I hate flipping through books trying to find a stat block or a spell--but my group plays in person around a table with minis and the like, so we have no need to a VTT. For folks that use it (or Smiteworks) how does FG work as a tool to support in-person play? How does it handle building encounters and the like? How about adding or editing monsters? Does it have easy references (for example, if a monster has a spell it is easy to pull up the spell text)? I glanced at the website a while back and everything seems focused on online play... is there a good page or video I can check out (particularly for 5E use)? I think everyone has a tablet of some sort of tablet, and everyone really wants an app for character management, and I see tablets are in the pipeline. Any hints on if that's a matter of months vs. years off? Until there's tablet support, how would it work for players? Can they print a character sheet? [/QUOTE]
