[QUOTE="Foxman, post: 4466574, member: 62088"] Some things from my game: Init - I use clothes-pins - labelmaker a name, and there you go. (wooden ones and a marker works too) I put them up on my dm screen and move the activated ones to one side, the unactivated on the other and the acting in the middle I use power cards (yay!) Tracking marks/conditions - office supply store and a box of coloured paperclips - PC's are responsible for placing them on thier own minis or targets minis (red bloodied/blue fighter/yellow paladin/purple warlock/green ranger - leaves black and white for other effects) Laser pointer!!! Instead of getting up and moving stuff around the table I can just point and ask someone to move a monster - saves a LOT of time. Can be had at a dollar store for CHEAP! ====================================== I found this thread looking for otherways to speed up combat, here are some things I've seen and I'm considering: * One other thing I've heard is halving monster's HP's. Not sure about this, but it should speed things up. * Making all players powers reliable, that is if you miss with your big to-do its not wasted. (roll twice for normally reliable powers) * Adding half-level to damage for the PC's (be easy to do for monsters too...) I wouldnt suggest using more than one of these... [/QUOTE]
