Hi all,
Does Hero Lab support the Hero Point optional rule and if not is there a way for me to manually had a hero point pool for tracking under In Play -> Tracked Resources? The little boxes are useful for my players. Thanks. |

I also would love hero points. My group uses them regularly and as a work around, I created a potion in HL called "Hero Points" and my group uses them throughout their adventures. It's at least a way to track them on our printouts.

Submit a request to LWD. They have been really good with adding functionality.

Spoke to support, but they can not add it as it is not part of the SRD. Having said that, the community is free to add it via the community pack. So that's an option. Will need to research how this can be done.

I honestly tried to create this but I truly believe that well have to beg a boon from ShadowChemosh to implement this one . . .
I tried studying some of the other Options like Spell Points,Varient Encumbrance, Always Show Journal Tab, etc and sad to say I couldn't figure out how to implement the DMG's Option Hero Point rules. I could probably add it as an Adjustment & Ability but I'd like to see this done properly as an Optional rule that you implement with a Configure Hero checkbox. I'll create an Adjustment version if needed. Watch your back, Conserve your ammo, and NEVER cut a deal with a dragon! |

So my question is can anyone point me to the full rules text for this ability. That will make it much easier for me to implement it correctly....

ShadowChemosh:
The following is the Hero Point rules straight from the 5E DMG - p.264. It would need to have the 20% paraphrase ruling applied to the text. Quote:

As an adjustment it took me all of 5 minutes to create. But for the life of me I cannot figure out how to add it to Configure hero as an option so that you don't need to add an Adjustment to each character.
What I'd like to have done just have to check it off under Configure hero. Watch your back, Conserve your ammo, and NEVER cut a deal with a dragon! |

But instead of bootstrapping the tracker to an adjustment you bootstrap the tracker to the 5E Community Mechanic. That is a link to the one that is in the Pack already. PLEASE do not use the editor to edit that file as you will blow away all my comments. Once bootstrapped to the mechanic the tracker will become "live" only if the source is turned on. This is because the 5E Community Mechanic is "live" on every hero already.
