Loved the article, found it on google as Im planning on starting my 5 and 7 year olds in 4e when I get home from Afghanistan. I’ve been thinking of ways to simplify character sheets into dry erase cards with just the basic info they need. AC, hit points, attack and damage bonuses for their basic and special attacks etc. I’m sure using miniatures will keep them super interested and help them visualize combat. Can’t wait to get home and try it! (Got the wife reading 4e for dummies so I can get her involved too)

You can get this exact type of punch at any Michaels store nationwide.
What program do you find works best for printing mini sheets?

I’m sad and upset. I’ve purchased several of your products, and I have to say that regarding 4e ‘you guys get it’. I actually just came looking to this web page to pass on some ideas that I think are good.

On the other hand, I want to say, I’m not surprised. This is a day and an age where d20 companies are all going belly up. This was the motivation for WOTC creating 4e and the GSL. There is a great book by one of the creator’s of Mongoose and it paints a pretty bleak picture. A best seller online is essentially 50 units world wide, and basically covers beer money and expenses. He even suspects that RPGNow is loosing money.

If you want to make it big, you have to put it to print and put it in stores.

As Alea Tools was mentioned, I wanted to give anyone reading this a heads’ up. Just a caveat emptor: I highly suggest shopping around to see if you can locate the products somewhere other than Alea Tools. One of my items arrived damaged and I have been trying to get in touch with someone at Alea Tools. It’s been nearly a month now and despite repeated efforts to contact them using the e-mail addresses provided on their site (plus replying directly to the invoice e-mail) I haven’t heard anything back. Now that I am looking around online I am hearing from other people that the company does not seem to reply to e-mails–ever. As neither their site nor their invoice includes a phone number, I am at a dead end. Their products may be a good idea but if you run into a problem with missing or broken items, or any situation at all in which you need to reach someone at the company, best of luck. Remember: caveat emptor if you place an order with them.

Comment on Kids and 4e by Jeff Foley

Hey, this was a GREAT read, thanks so much! I am about to introduce my 5 year old to D&D 4e. He loves playing my old copy of the old “Dungeon!” board game, and I immediately noticed how it was helping him with math, story-telling, and now just starting to learn to read. Every night before bedtime I make up a story about a hero we created (“the Knight of the Red Circle”) and the villains he faces, and they’ve become increasingly more like little D&D encounters. He recently added himself to the stories as the Knight’s helper and sometimes takes control of the stories. I showed him some miniatures and he was very interested in them; it’s a natural leap from the action figures he plays with now. So we’re going to give it a whirl, just he and I and two characters I pre-roll for him (me playing the Knight and him playing the Knight’s assistant), and I’m going to buy a dungeon tile set and dive right in, and probably ignore most of the combat rules except for movement, dice rolling to hit and for damage, and things like healing surges and hit points (which will be a stack of poker chips I give him.)

About the ranged/reach weapons, forget it. The Oath of Enmity only works when your character is adjacent to the enemy. Such a shame because reach would otherwise be great for an Avenger…

Sorry to hear you guys aren’t doing any more D&D 4th ed products. I’ve recently discovered your product line and I recently purchased the Witch Docter book and it’s great. I’m beginning a new campaign soon and I’m looking forward showing off the witch docter. I think I’m going to get the poison books too.
