[QUOTE="Festivus, post: 3013162, member: 34532"] I swear by the spell cards fro TOGC, wonderful product. The new status cards are on my to buy list as well. Great idea for the monster cards. Now, for money I bought these cheap plastic coins for kids to learn how to count money, but I think I am going to go with your monopoly money idea as well as it really clears things up. Question, what denominations do you assign to the money? GP? If so how do you handle change? For items, I bought the Game Mastery Item Pack from Paizo, they are really nice looking and fit nicely in a 9 card CCG sheet for storage in a binder... however I found it was better to just create slips or paper or 3x5 cards that have all the stats on the card. I use the Game Mastery cards for unidentified items only, and then once IDed I have a special PDF template I setup for magic items that I hand out. If you lose the paper, you lost the item. The last thing is I always prepare a initiative card for all encounters as well as the players for use during the game. Having the most vital stats available on the card in order of init is wonderful, makes combat go much faster. I use the cards from the Game Mechanics and fill them in myself. I'll have to look at TOGC's monster cards, might save a bit of prep time that way. Also, any of my cards that are intended to be written on get the scotch tape trick applied. This way they last a lot longer between reprinting. [/QUOTE]
