Descent RTL Online Campaign Sheet

By Kikketer, in Descent: Journeys in the Dark

I have officially completed an online campaign sheet for RTL. It has been quite a bit of time in the making, and I hope it helps anyone that's starting or currently running a campaign.

It was built to mimic the current pen and paper saving that comes with RTL but our group was always curious how they compare to other groups.

We live in an area where not too many people play Descent, so I (and a couple others) built this website to track progress of all campaigns and compare them.

I realize there may be a few other sites out there that track campaigns, but this one really does base itself on the pen and paper. So you are still able to play the game (instead of constantly updating the website, "Joe opened a door" kind of activities are not needed).

The site is live, and in order to keep the data relevant I ask that you try to put data in for actual campaigns. I will be scrubbing the database to rid it of any "test" campaigns. The reporting functionality is just waiting for some real campaign data, so get those campaigns running!

Please take a look and feel free to post any comments or suggestions here or on the site.

The online Campaign Sheet has been updated. There was some good feedback right after release and now I believe we are achieved an ideal state. If you do find anything you would like to see changed feel free to message me. Here are the details of what has happened for the last couple weeks:

Features:
- UNDO! You can now freely undo several portions of the site. This includes Week, Hero Location, Heroes, Individual Heroes, and Overlord. Feel free to give it a try, you now "have a pencil with an eraser" as one of our users would say.

- Week 0 is much more flexible. Previously our Week 0 (or the initial setup stage) had too many rules in place. Now you can freely set up your campaign at any week, this is very handy if you already have a campaign running and wish to start recording it here.

Fixes:
- Fleeing dungeons ? Previously if you fled a dungeon there was no way of recording that you were currently at Tamalir.

- Rumor Location ? Fixed an issue where you could not ?none? from the rumor location once one was set.

- Textbox size ? Fixed the issue with the Safari browser where text boxes were a bit too small (please let me know if you see any missed ones, I do not have a mac to test this on).

- Correct Overlord XP gain - Fixed an issue where the overlord was not gaining the correct amount of XP when a new week was created.

The reports are coming soon, but we still need a critical amount of campaigns. So get out there and track those campaigns! :)

Release 3 for the Descent Online Campaign Sheet went live about a week ago. News can now be found via the RSS feed:
