The KGB Oracle Forums General Public Discussion (PUBLIC) The Pub P&P getting ready

I got turned into Hulking Zombie toe jam, it was great.

So, does the software have all the rules and books built in or do we need to have books in front of us?

It does have some built in, but not all. It isn't every thing but there is a quick users guide of the game on there web site at http://www.fantasygrounds.com/userguide4E/

Ictinike as well has the full books I think he is working on makeing cheat sheets for most of it, I know I am trying to help a bit with that. I am not sure if he wants to post all the full books or if he wants to post the cheat sheets that we are working on for something a bit more simple. I will be sure to ask

Well Phaq did a pretty good job but it's a bit of both, lol.

The license does NOT come with the books. I had to subscribe to the WoTC (now named CockasaurasRex) and use a community tool to "scrape" the books from the insider account.

Once I have the raw data I can parse it and build the "modules" that the software uses. This allows us to drag and drop equipment, feats, spells, powers, anything into your character sheets, etc.

Now add in volumes like Monster Manual 1, 2 and 3 as well the additional supplement books and I have everything I need, in reference fashion, that I can also drag and drop and create adventures. It's all linked within the software and the combat is more automatic than not. You still roll dice but the dice are in the game as 3d renderings of real dice you pick up, shake and throw

So again, a little bit of each but the software comes licensed with 4E, 3.5 and other rule sets such as Savage World, and others. You can build your own rule set as well so if we wanted and someone hadn't made one we could play Warhammer or even Darkfall if we came up with a rule set for the game and applied the concept of the online game to pen and paper

Check out the tutorials and videos if your interested as the guy there did a great job showing the abilities of the software but by no means all of it..

Here is a brief screen shot of of my DM client and the work done toady. Several encounters, the modules I have built and linked as well the Library search and a Beholder creature card:

Neato. I don't know if I will have time but Brutal might look into playing with you guys. He currently runs a game on Saturdays so he's probably interested in getting to play instead of run.

Seriously? A Brutal campaign would be interesting to play in, maybe some day, what system does he run?

oops

Whats up?

That's just a post I didn't mean 2 post lol I'm on the road on forms on my phone ill be online about 1am EST
