Zombie Gunship Survival

This app allows you to quickly change your equipment and adjust your scores.

Imagine you had just escaped from a prison cell. You have no armor and no weapons (now take time to recalculate your AC and attack roles). You bare-hand fight your way through the guards to the armory and you get all of your gear back. You put your armor back on and equip your trusty weapon (take the time to recalculate your AC and attack roles AGAIN). Now you’re on your way trying to get out of the prison and you go through a series of encounters, each of which you have used different powers. You’re finally at the front door and the main boss is blocking your way. You engage him and just as you are about to attack, you can’t remember if you’ve already used the daily power that you want to use. Was that checkmark next to the power from this day, or did you forget to erase it when I took your last extended rest?

Dungeons and Dragons requires a lot of different calculations be made for each power, and the modifiers keep changing based on what equipment you are wearing and what status effects are afflicting your character. This app does a lot of the work for you. With this app, you can create multiple characters, weapons, implements, armor, gear, powers, and feats. Based on how you create the items, the app will add the modifiers to the attack and damage roles. You can quickly equip / unequip items and all of the values will change automatically based on your new equipment. Whenever you use a power, the power will be removed from the list of usable powers until you end the encounter or take an extended rest. Your health values and healing surges are also refreshed when you take an extended rest.

With this app, you will be able to focus more on the game rather than on keeping up to date with all of your characters’ stats. With fewer interruptions, you will be able to feel more like you are actually in the action and will be able to feel what your character is actually going through. You will be able to make better, more realistic decisions that your character would actually make and the game will be more fun because of it.

This is just a beta version of the app and many updates are forthcoming. If you have any suggestions, please write a review with what you think could be changed, fixed, or added. Some planned updates are the following:

- attaching At-Will, Encounter, and Daily powers to weapons, implements, armor, and gear which show up in your

powers list whenever the item is equipped

- adding rituals / spellbooks to the list of powers

- ability to send private messages to other players on the same Wi-Fi network

All calculations and auto-filled information about character classes, races, and equipment are from the Dungeons and Dragons 4.0 Player’s Handbook. (1)
