Initiative Tracker

This product is amazing! I am a very visual person and feel this tool helps me and all the players keep track of who is up next without me having to tell them they are up next. The bottom rock portion has a good weight to it, so it doesn’t tip over in any way when putting in the cards. And everyone loves seeing the sword come out. I plunge the sword in the stone and say “roll initiative”. I find it’s helpful to have the cards sitting at everyone place when they arrive and I have them fill them out front and back for me at the beginning of a game. Then it’s all ready to go. Plus it’s just a beautiful product to have in the table.Update:After using it multiple times in sessions I have some new thoughts.1. I still really like it and it is such a helpful guide for everyone playing2. It’s helpful to pre-write everyone names and the enemies. It’s too time consuming to do it on the fly during game play.3. I wish this product was connected magnetically for ease of placement. It does tend to be challenging to quickly put it together and is easy to knock off other cards when you are placing or removing them.Still love the product and will keep it 5 stars.

They must have taken some of the design critiques to heart. The Flags easily fit into the sword, they erase cleanly and they are stable when attached. The sword detailing is beautiful. The sword and base is still a little unstable, but we used a small bit of silly putty at sword tip going into the base and tada! Worked like a charm. My husband is our DM and he absolutely loves it! Best present I got him this year.

So it's nice aesthetically, but for practical application it's kind of fussy. From the picture, I thought the sword was silver-colored, but really it's clear. It comes in a nice foam-padded box and is well made. Definitely lightweight. We found, however, that since the little flags are so lightweight, it's easy to bump other flags when you're moving one, which can knock a few of them off. Which makes you take time to have to re-adjust them all back to their needed order. The pieces are well-cut and fit good, but it might need to be a bit taller with more space between flags with the kind of lightweight pieces it has (maybe the maker could offer a taller version for that). Dry erase markers seem to work well on it and cleans off easily. We gifted it to our DM, so we're able to see it in action. She too loved the design, and all the issues that I'm stating were me watching her fiddle with it during the next session where she used it. A clever idea, neat gadget, but the execution could use a bit of finesse.

What's not to like?!?!?!?!??!? Show your group's initiatives in fantasy style!Could be a little thicker, the blade portion, but that's nit-picking... it's pretty good, just seems like it leans a little and I'm not sure if that's because of the material used or the hole in the foundation/rock...Overall - worth it to add style to my games!!!

This was a prefect addition to my d&d group. We were tracking initiative on the map taking up room on the board that would otherwise be world. The only thing that I don't quite like is how thin the sword is. Its not thin enough to break from use but would look a bit better aesthetically.

Honestly was a little disappointed that the sword isn’t the same color as shown in the pictures. It has a purplish tint and is mostly see-through. Functionally works well though.

My husband, who is the DM for out current DND campaign, mentioned that he sometimes messes up the initiative order, so I got him this. It's very cool looking, on theme, practical, and easy to use.

We chipped in and bought this for our DM for Christmas. I love it, because we can ALL see the initiative. DM puts a clip on the person who's turn it is. It's really helpful for seeing whose turn it is, and you know when you are next.
