Basically the title says it all. I'm looking for some GM tools to help me run my campaign. Here's what I would like something that:
SR4a compatable Tracks multiple char sheets, including advancement NPC sheets GM Notes Storyline tracker Would be nice to have: Chargen Die Roller Things I've tried/looked at: OpenRPG iTabletop ShadowDice cndblank's GruntBuilder spreadsheet all the dxi apps DarkSeven's awesome chargen spreadsheet I've seen a couple software packages out there, but they generally seem built towards online play, or are no longer maintained (hence, not SR4a compatable). So what do you all use...the classic manila folder system? Multiple spreadsheets? Something you built yourself? As a note this is for an in-person game, so online capability isn't really needed. I'm also willing to look at paid software, but it must have either a free trial or an extremely good recommendation... |
