A few sessions under my belt...
<t>As some of you know, I've been DMing for a long time, but CKing just a few sessions. I came here from 3.5e and after quite a few bad experiences relating to prep time and length of combats I'd finally had enough. It wasn't the game I used to know.<br/> <br/> After a couple of sessions of CKing I ...

<t>Thanks for both of those.<br/> <br/> I'm not sure about rabindranath72's process. I can see the benefit in having lots of pregenerated rolls but my player's would likely complain.

That initiative question again...
<t>This question is not about how initiative can be done differently, as I quite like it as it stands (1d10 unmodified).<br/> <br/> However, the way we play it is I (the CK), ask everyone to roll initiative. We all roll initiative, then I ask all the players what the scores are and jot them down. Th...
