[QUOTE="NotRussellCrowe, post: 6992648, member: 6857038"] Dramatic? Not sure what you mean by that but I think FG could be very useful when running at the table. My first thing I'd do is create characters for all your players and then you can run combat from the Combat Tracker. Just manually input the player's initiative rolls and it will order for you and when it's a monster's turn it will tell you all their options. You can turn on the option for manual dice rolls and enter all damage the players make (I'm assuming they will roll their own physical dice) and it will keep track of hit points and such. If you have a second monitor or TV or something you could run another instance for the players to watch with maps and other images and such. Or you could use a second computer, give them a mouse and let them move their tokens around. If you want to go all out you could use another TV/monitor as a battle map in addition to the following extension: [url]https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?33834-Map-resize-to-TV-resolution-for-Face-To-Face-games[/url] Fantasy Grounds is also great if you have the official products (or even the SRD may be good enough) as it's quicker to lookup information than flipping pages.
