    D&D 5E (2014) Starter Set: Excerpt 4

    I really thought the Realms would have been ready for the metric system by now. B-)

    Pathfinder 1E Running a Pathfinder combat online

    I spent some time today putting together a sample video that walks through a fairly typical combat encounter. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so a video with pictures and words is probably worth something too. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHRBeO6lUWo Also, if you want to...

    Gaming Ballistic interviews Doug Davison about Fantasy Grounds and Virtual Tabletops

    I spend a little over an hour talking with Douglas Cole from Gaming Ballistic for part of his Firing Squad interviews about virtual tabletops. He's a GURPS fan, so we talk about that, about VTTs in general and about some of the features that set Fantasy Grounds apart from the other VTTs out...

    Necromancer Games Under Fire?

    I bet he's really good at handling rules lawyers.

    Necromancer Games Under Fire?

    The only angle that makes sense is if they could prove that every campaign he runs ends in a TPK. On a more serious note, I do think the sort of biased viewpoint on D&D impacts a number of us in the workforce today in our professional careers. I am definitely a little reserved about who knows...

    Gamehackery: Virtual Table Top Solutions

    Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I'd like to share what most of the Fantasy Grounds users prefer. Most users combine a mix of text chat and Skype for voice chat. Within FG, you can prepare boxed text or spoken text and share this easily with the players when it is appropriate, change chat...

    8 Ways to Run a Game Online

    Don't forget Fantasy Grounds as well. It has a lot of built-in, but still optional automation and character sheet functionality and themes for a number of different game systems. The demo is fully functional except it doesn't allow saving. Search on YouTube for many videos.

    pogre's model and figure thread

    Hey Pogre, did you get in on the Reaper Bones kickstarter when it was running? If so, I'm hoping we can see some of these in 2013 and it will be interesting to see which ones grab your attention to paint first. I'm hoping that much new material will get me back into painting more often again...

    New D&D movie on SyFy tonight - Book of Vile Darkness

    I liked it, but I admit that the bar was set pretty low for me. I also found mild entertainment in the references to game elements -- although those weakened the script for serious viewers, I'm sure. The script and story played out much like adventures my gaming group have actually run through...

    On Pumpkin Pies: Monte Cook Talks... Everything

    I just wanted to add that Monte is also super easy to work with within the industry -- at least from our perspective. He was already doing well and didn't need us and yet he basically licensed us to carry his Malhavoc Press line within Fantasy Grounds just because he saw that as a preferred (or...

    D&D 4E WotC, DDI, 4E, and Hasbro: Some History

    Not a native version, but I run it on my iMac using WineBottler and it runs as well as on any of my PCs. Thankfully, Wine allows us to provide it for play on both Mac and Linux in a very stable environment without requiring a complete re-write of our core engine. Many other FG users run on Mac...

    SmiteWorks has a fully working VTT and a proven ability to faithfully convert over 200 RPG products into fully functioning add-ons, adventures, core rulebooks, etc. This is even easier when the products are all from the same company and you don't have to figure out a bunch of different styles...

    Battlegrounds or Fantasygrounds?

    FG does have a free trial version. Some other responses to earlier comments. FG has supported hex and square based grids on maps for about a year I believe. This can be toggled on an image by image basis, in case you have a mix over overland and indoor maps. Over the summer, we also added...
