That’s the thing. D&D doesn’t really have an alignment system anymore. Eye color has about as much significance.

interesting theory, I’ll be interested in hearing how it plays out. I’ve always had good luck with individual xp, works great to keep players involved in the game in order to get their reward. Not sure about alignment, I’ve played enough systems without an alignment system now, where you just stay true to your characters personality that I don;t see it as strictly necessary.

of course, some of those games had a separate reputation system, so that may skew my views.

I didn’t forget, just didn’t want to embarrass you.

You forgot one highlight, running into me

Super-excited for this: I think when paired with some already-published maps (Wizards usually publishes their map galleries, for instance), you’ve got a real winner here. Still, things can get a little cluttered when you start adding bunches of PCs and monsters.

Are you working on anything that will let me change the color of a marker? If each of the PCs had their own color, and certain monster types had their own, that’d go a long way.

Also, if there were some way to display a small label above each map marker, I could see that being useful: you could add character names and status effects, for instance.

Anywho, great job… I’m thinking about starting up a 4e campaign on Wave now…

The waves aren’t public at the moment, so in order to see the actual things, I’d ask him. That said, I’ll give you a brief description. He’s pretty much setting it up like you might a wiki, starting with a subsector wave, which is linked to waves individual systems. The system wave is structured with several documents, essentially what you might see when you access the system’s ‘network’, plus comms chatter. So there’ll be a blip with available cargo manifests, one with job postings, one with systemwide announcements, etc. It’s pretty slick, with each system having it’s own wave, and the Travellers hop from wave to wave.

Links/search criteria/pix for Greywulf’s waves? I’m interested in seeing what setup he has.

@Chris Clouser Which bot is yours? Glad you like it. It's still got a lot of work to go, but it's pretty exciting here.

Hey, just tried this out – excellent stuff! I’m very impressed. I wrote a dice bot for Wave, but Javascript is beyond my ken, so I was basically waiting for someone to figure this part out so I could latch on to those coattails!

Thank you for this.
