Wizards of the Coast has stated they're developing some online tools to facilitate online play; things like an online game board with creatable dungeons, a way to manage your characters, all sorts of stuff. But, they haven't said what the status of that tool is other than "it's coming." In the interim, us Fancy Bastards (some of us DnD veterans, some complete new comers) decided to take the 4E rules for a spin together. We're using MapTool, part of a pen and paper RPG computer tool suite. ( <a href="http://rptools.net/ ">http://rptools.net/ </a>) It's quite robust as far as these things go, and it's free. And while the tool itself isn't perfect, I find it hard to believe that Wizards will release anything that will trump it's functionality, other than the official DnD branding. I don't want to speak for Mike, but our group isn't quite full yet, so if you want to join, surf to the Forums and find the threads and make your case. We don't care if you're a veteran or a totally new player. And if we fill up too quickly, there's lots of forums to choose from to find a game looking for players ( <a href="http://forums.rptools.net/viewtopic.php?t=1745 ">http://forums.rptools.net/viewtopic.php?t=1745 </a>). I could go on and on about DnD or our specific play session, but I don't think there's that much interest to the casual observer. Regardless, feel free to contact me through the forums and I'll answer any questions I can. As you may or may not know, DnD 4th Edition came out just a couple months ago.

Thoughts on Batman? Firefox 3 and how much their new 'update' didn't fix.... Which games are you guys looking forward to for the rest of '08? For me it's all about Fallout 3... Has Eli purchased 'I Drink Your Blood' yet? If so, has he watched it? If so, he is now some form of demigod... Does anyone actually think GoW2 will be a good game? Should I give up on games now that they've become generic, short, online-focused and dull? Thoughts on Doctor Horrible?

Thoughts on Batman?

Firefox 3 and how much their new 'update' didn't fix….

Which games are you guys looking forward to for the rest of '08? For me it's all about Fallout 3…

Has Eli purchased 'I Drink Your Blood' yet? If so, has he watched it? If so, he is now some form of demigod…

Does anyone actually think GoW2 will be a good game? Should I give up on games now that they've become generic, short, online-focused and dull?
