Realm Work and Hero Lab - Managing a Massive Combat Encounter
 

Hi Team,

Last night I ran a massive encounter. Easily the largest I ever attempted.

It was a siege against a keep that my players had claimed. Using relatively large units of weak mobs against the players and a contingent of NPCs.

I created a video to discuss some of the elements of Realm Works and Hero Lab that helped to make management of such combat possible.

I probably should have used the Unearthed Arcana Mass Combat Rules but instead Hero Lab allowed me to play the encounter with the standard rule-set.

Bloody exhausting keeping track of so much stuff but it was one hell of a fight.

Very cool! Those pictures work perfectly for breaking up the wall of text and making creatures easy to find!
