So yeah, I was just wondering what most of you guys do when you're playing -- are you using Miniatures? I'm used to that with D&D, but I'd like to go without them. Do you guys have drawn out maps to keep track of where people are, or is it all verbal description? I have a hard time sometimes keeping track of my NPCs when I have like 6 or more in the room.
I was also wondering about having info available for quick reference. We really want to keep the action moving, and stopping down to add skills, attributes, etc. can get tedious sometimes. I was thinking about having index cards for all the characters (and NPCs) that had common dice pools calculated. For example, when you use this gun, roll this much, unless there's a modifier, etc. Having precalculated pools for different firing modes, different weapons, for different methods of defense, all there at once so we can roll quickly and keep it moving pretty quick. Do you guys do stuff like that? Is there a better way, or a standardized way of doing that, or does everybody just read off of their character sheets? Thanks for the help. |
