The launch of the official license is the primary factor for the sudden surge in April. Prior to this, we had no official support, although people could still play 5E games if they didn't mind entering the data on their own. Pathfinder has had strong support on Fantasy Grounds due to the...

DSA is Das Schwarze Auge (Translation: The Dark Eye). It's really popular in Germany, which has a sizable RPG gamer population as well. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Das_Schwarze_Auge I don't know how these games compare outside of Fantasy Grounds. This data just shows what is the most popular...

You can pretty much houserule however it fits your system. Depending on the houserule, this may mean that you don't use the automation that is there for the feature already, or it might be something you can just toggle and continue to use automation.

One thing to consider is that the subscriptions for Fantasy Grounds don't require any commitment on the length of the sub. You can choose to try it out for 1 month as regular sub ($3.99) and then pick up the D&D Basic Rules Pack ($3.99) and then decide from there if you want to go up to an...

All of the content from the printed book is included, but the organization is different and meant more for playing through it online. I personally prefer to read through a printed book in advance of running my game through FG, but your mileage may vary. It also probably doesn't help that I'm a...

The 5E ruleset is included without the core books with any of the licenses of Fantasy Grounds, 1-time cost licenses or the $3.99/mo or $9.99/mo Ultimate licenses. Your players would need to enter their character info, like weapons and spells, but they could play any adventures you picked up.

Yes. I use it for that regularly for a wide variety of games. I use it to track initiative as well, what effects are there, HP remaining for PCs and NPCs, etc, as well as story and encounter notes. I recommend still adding the basic stats you want to track for PCs as well so you can have that...

EEPC isn't on Steam yet. It is included with POTA as a separate, shareable module but is not available on Steam as a stand-alone yet. ETA ~ 1 week for that due to the oversight.

The nice thing about the adventures is that they include all the monsters. If your plan is to just run the adventures, you can skip the Monster Pack and then just add in any homebrew or 1-off monsters you want as you go. The class packs are also optional, although I'd say the D&D Basic Rules...

We got it done just in time to start on the next one. Sitting side by side with Rise of Tiamat or the other adventures, it doesn't seem that much bigger. There is a bunch of content crammed between the two covers though. It looks great, though, so we hope you like it.

That's good to hear. Each of the developers (2 owners + 1 official dev) all started out as community members and had a similar experience. We became die-hard fans ourselves before becoming owners of the company in 2009.

Yes, that is correct. On Steam - Buy standard license then Ultimate Upgrade DLC On Fantasy Grounds Site - Buy Ultimate license directly -- or you can buy Standard plus Ultimate Upgrade

The sale runs until June 22nd.

Because it doesn't require an Internet connection to use the basic license, many people use it as a campaign manager, rules and NPC lookup and combat initiative tracker at the table for their in-person games.

The Ultimate license is listed as an Upgrade DLC only on Steam. That means you need to pick up the standard license and then the Upgrade from there. That kept us from having to have two store pages and then trying to keep all the DLC in sync for both versions.

The picture on this post reminds me of a painted mirror I won at a state fair throwing darts at balloons. If I remember correctly, it was a Guns 'n Roses mirror. The skull and the roses just remind me of it. Ahhh... 1980-something nostalgia. The easiest way to find the new edition is to launch...

There is a reason Microsoft bought Minecraft for $2.5 Billion. I confess that I simply don't get it... but obviously a large number of other people do. Of all the crazes and fads, we could do much worse than Minecraft, though, so I applaud them for making something that spurs creativity.

I apologize in advance for the thread necro, but I thought that I would share that the 2015 Summer Sale just launched on Steam and we have matched the discounts on our storefront too. You can now get all Fantasy Grounds 1-time licenses and all the adventures and complete packs for D&D at 30%...

The 2015 Summer Sale has just launched. The dates correspond with the official Steam Summer Sale and the prices of discounted items is matched on our store (www.fantasygrounds.com) and on Steam (http://store.steampowered.com/app/252690/). Highlights: All FG 1-time licenses are 30% off All D&D...

The adventure has everything you need to play included. You don't need the MM for it. The PHB is optional, although I would highly recommend the $2.99 D&D Basic Rules pack since it pre-enters a bunch of the character building stuff and includes the basic 4 races and classes, along with the...
