    [UPDATED] Dragon+: An Official D&D iOS App

    I would imagine you'll see it eventually. It's very likely the pages are PDF format (in the background), but using the Newsstand app for distribution. Once they find a suitable delivery mechanism for Android, it'll be trivial to cross publish.

    [UPDATED] Dragon+: An Official D&D iOS App

    Just downloaded. It's a Newstand app (digital magazine). The main screen has all their feeds (Facebook, Tumblr, Twitter, etc.), and the top half of the page has the issues available (currently just one), with download links. The first issue contains: * A Word from the "DM to the Stars" *...

    FANTASY GROUNDS Virtual Tabletop's D&D License!

    This isn't "5E's electronic/online solution", it's ONE product that has obtained a 5e license. That's a huge difference.

    FANTASY GROUNDS Virtual Tabletop's D&D License!

    Thanks for your write-up. I'm most excited about the prospect of not having to build the published adventures manually, like I do in Roll20. It took me many hours to build-out Lost Mines. I would gladly have paid $19.99 to have it done for me. I'm hoping they get Princes of the Apocalypse done...

    FANTASY GROUNDS Virtual Tabletop's D&D License!

    Ah, ok. I suppose that would be OK. Is it easy to remove the fog of war? I do like dynamic lighting, but I hate having to build it on every map by hand...

    FANTASY GROUNDS Virtual Tabletop's D&D License!

    Ok, can someone who uses FG answer this for me? We currently use Roll20 for our IRL game, to display the maps (with dynamic lighting). One person connects via laptop and moves the tokens to open up new parts of the map. All combat is done on the "real" tabletop. So, with FG, if you go with the...

    Geek & Sundry Does D&D (and a bunch of other things)

    I watched it on my iPad using the Twitch app. Worked fine for me. Keep in mind he app has tabs, and I believe it defaults to live streams, so if you're looking for the archived content, you'll need to switch tabs. But G&S is definitely there...

    D&D 5E (2014) Products You Would Like to See WotC Publish For 5E

    Of course it is. The pessimism on this board is too deep to overcome. WotC literally can't win.

    Geek & Sundry Does D&D (and a bunch of other things)

    They're already archived on their Twitch channel. It's split into two videos (there was a brief dropout about 45 mins before the end...) Matt Mercer is one of the best DMs I've ever seen. So, so, good. The second (shorter) video has the combat, and it's epic. His descriptions of the battle are...

    ELEMENTAL EVIL Player's Companion - FREE!

    Boss: "Did you put in a vacation request for Hawaii?" Me: "Huh? I'm not going to Hawaii." Boss: "I saw the brochure on your desk." Me: "I was considering it, but decided against. Don't have the funds right now." Boss: "If you're going to cancel your vacation, you need to let HR know." Me: "I'm...

    D&D 5E (2014) So what exactly is Wizards working on?

    Ding, ding, ding. I wish more people would realize this. I'm getting really tired of the overly selfish posts in so many threads. So much so that I've cut down my involvement/reading/posting here by at least half, and have considered just not returning. Plenty of good constructive discussion...

    If that were true, Apple would be in big trouble. You could write encyclopedic volumes on the number of "leaked" prototypes for Apple products that never existed. And, every time, some overzealous tech writer or blogger took them as fact, and every time the message boards and comment threads...

    D&D 5E (2014) D20 Fight Club 5e [iOS]

    Spells will be easy with the xml import. Until we get race import, those will sadly have to be manual.

    Don't know yet, as I *just* leveled up prior to the update. I'll let you know once I hit next level.

    D&D 5E (2014) D20 Fight Club 5e [iOS]

    I should also point out mine isn't a good use case, because my character is a half-elf, which wasn't in the old version either, so I had to manually enter racial modifiers (ex: CHA bump). The old version only had things from the basic rules, not the entire PHB. (I also manually added class...

    D&D 5E (2014) D20 Fight Club 5e [iOS]

    Gotcha. After updating on one device, I saved to iCloud, then loaded onto my other device. It seems to have kept all my race based things. I'm hoping the dev eventually adds the ability to import classes, races, and feats.
