Title: Frostgrave Webtool - Wizard Creator/Spellbook/Warband Builder
Post by: TheWolfRage on May 11, 2022, 03:00:09 PM
I recently started playing Frostgrave and fell in love with the game and the community. But I was really surprised by the lack of a wiki or an online tool for the game. I have started working on a desktop/mobile website tool for Frostgrave to assist with warband and wizard creation. I have a lot left to do but I really want the community's feedback as I continue to build because this tool is for all who play this fun game! My goal is to create something that is useful for every player and expands the player base.

First and Second Edition toggle option available for Spellbook and Wizard Creator!

Please enjoy and share feedback so I can improve!

It looks neat. I haven't done extensive testing but I can tell that you need to update the spells. Those listed on your website are from the 1st edition. Some of them have significantly changed in the 2nd edition and some of them are even gone, replaced by new spells.

Looks good.
I still play first Ed, and may not be the only one, so two versions, one for each, would seem the most user friendly way to go.

Thanks! I agree that have an edition toggle and both first and second edition would make the most sense.

It looks good, any plans on adding the Captain into it?

I am not familiar with the Captain, is there a source where I could read up on it?

It's from the Sellsword supplement...it adds another leveling character.

Looking good. Animate Skull's description in the Wizard creator does not show text.

Wish list item- add the modifiers for aligned and neutral schools to the casting total.

Good catch! fixed :)

This is a good feature - I will see what I can do!
Thanks for feedback. <3

Looks good. A couple of points/suggestions.

1. Some sort of print option?
2. You're missing a lot of soldier types (the aforementioned Captain for example), which unfortunately you're only going to be able to get details of with the various supplements (all 1e supplements are valid in 2e).
3. Some soldiers have different prices in 1e to 2e, so if you have a toggle for wizards you probably should have one for soldiers.
4. In 1e you had a wizard and 9 slots, one of which could (should!) be the Apprentice. In 2e you have the wizard, optional apprentice and 8 soldier slots - you can't take a 9th soldier by not taking an Apprentice.
5. Add the bases? As these can change casting numbers (or add room for another soldier).
6. Add the following to the resource page: https://www.josephamccullough.com/frostgrave/ It's the author's own website.
