[QUOTE="gaptooth, post: 5419411, member: 98818"] Thanks for the recommendation! I searched the Wizards D&D site up and down, but I could not find this product. Either they don't stock it anymore, or they don't want to sell it. Or else, I just had a mental lapse and missed the obvious. I found a similar product on the Paizo website, but I couldn't tell how it would help. I should have asked about it at the game shop tonight, but it fled my mind. For us, it's important for everyone to be able to see the initiative, especially to see when they are "on deck". It's not hard for me to track it on an index card, but then no one is ready to take their turn when their turn comes. What we do now is this: I use my own miniatures and tokens for the combat, and I use duplicate miniatures lined up in initiative order beside the map where everyone can see. For monsters in the initiative, I use the generic numbered tokens that came with the first chapter's materials, and I try to use numbers that correspond to the numbers on the actual monster tokens on the map. If there's a faster way, I'd love to know. I'm not keen on a software solution since I don't have a smart phone and I don't bring my laptop to the table-- I love it, but I get to look at it enough throughout the week. Thanks again! [/QUOTE]
