[QUOTE="Blackwarder, post: 6088064, member: 6688285"] I agree with every thing said on this thread, good digital tools are a must, going all the way old school is the greatest thing since sliced bread. Here is what I want out of D&D, I want to have a game box called [B]Dungeon&Dragons [/B]I want it to be self contained and have everything you need to play [B]Basic[/B] [B]D&D[/B], this kind of product wouldn't need any digital support. Next comes [B]Standard D&D[/B], I want this game to come in actual hardcover books (because I collect them) but to also have them out in an editable digital format so I can add house rules and notes just like we used to do in the good ol' days (mainly with yellow post it notes) and I want to be able to share it. Having a digital character sheet connected to the DM would be cool but the most important feature for the digital books would be their ability to interface with the various [B]Advanced D&D[/B] various rules modules and seamlessly change alter the books. When it comes to digital tools I want to have a single icone on my iPad for D&D, in it I'll have a dog octal store for all the books and a free copy of the rule book for [B]Basic D&D[/B] (without all the goodies in the regular box) when I buy the the standard PHB it will seamlessly merge with the portions of the basic rules it correspond with, same goes to DMG and any kind of MM. I also want to have Dungeon magazine and Dragon Magazine in there and I want to be able to buy the separately or subscribe to them and be able to add anything interesting to my books, and last but not least I want to have advantures, and game world books in there. I recently bought the Ankh-Morpork map for the iPad and OMG it's the best Gazeteer every, this kind of map with those details just make me want to run a game in Ankh-Morpok only thing missing is that I can't add notes of my own. Bottom line, I agree that having laptops around the gaming table (except maybe for the DM) is a bad thing since it creat a barrier between the group members, I also agree that being able to play the game with a regular pen and paper is a must but I think that digital tools afford us a quality of life opportunities and are too good to miss out and that tablet computers are the wave of the future and will probably become a fixed feature in our daily lives so why not use them?
