I use Combat Manager on my laptop when I GM, so I have a good handle on initiative, hp and conditions. What constantly seems to cause me problems are triggered events, such as auras and reactive abilities. Does anyone have any ideas for a good reminder system so that I stop forgetting these...

Don't put the mic on the table where it picks up every little bump or tap on the table. Ask the players to stop playing with their dice for the entire game. I have started listening to some podcasts where you can barely hear anything other than someone drumming their fingers next to the mic and...

I have some fellow players who are telling me that consecrated ground cannot be moved further from the cleric that the close range of the burst. To me, the text is clear that the intent is to allow it to be moved around on the battlefield. I think that the key phrase is "can move the origin...

I have had great luck with this meetup group for Triangle D&D players. The Raleigh-Durham Dungeons & Dragons Meetup Group (Apex, NC) - Meetup.com

Thank you, that is certainly clear. It's amazing how many times I read right over that and it never sunk into my brain.

When does the death saving throw count reset? For example, someone is dying and fails 2 saves before being raised back to positive hp. Later in the encounter, they are dropped back to negative and fail another save. Are they dead or have they only failed one save? I was playing in a group that...

I am looking for players for 4e D&D near Durham, North Carolina. I am a long time DM, but I haven't DMed 4e yet. I may start a new campaign or use an adventure path. I am mostly a gamer, with moderately low role player and simulationist tendencies. If you like 1 hour conversations with a...

Wildshape Totem Wildshape Totem: Allows specific magic items to function while wildshaped. The totem is a reproduction of the owner’s natural form, with tiny versions of the items that are to be preserved during wild shaping. Each slot on the totem allows the bearer to benefit from an item...

I am in a weekly Tuesday night game (~6-10 PM) that is looking for 1 or 2 new players. We mostly play D&D 3.5 with the occasional Champions game for variety. We play near the intersection of 751 and 40, just on the Chapel Hill side of the Park. We range from 25-45 years old and are middle of the...

1) Sounds like a bug to me. I will look into it. 2) Probably not. There are so many possible ways to combine attacks that it would require a full blown program with many buttons and switches and knobs. This is just a quick and dirty spreadsheet to get the numbers done. 3) Doubtful again...

The software library here on ENWorld.

I wrote an Excel spreadsheet that does monster calculations for 3.5. It is in the library as 3.5 monster editor. It will create a std monster output and a statblock. They will still require some editing after they are copied and pasted to another editor. It is mostly designed to get the math...

It could have been worse. The GM could have remembered that vampires are immune to mind-effecting magic. :-)

Try to get on a treatment with a new drug called Fuzeon, a viral fusion inhibitor. I was involved in the initial research at the company that developed it (www.trimeris.com) and it is an extremely promising medicine. It has almost no side effects and has been successful in reducing viral loads...
