Birthright databases

[Rasmus Juul Wagner]

Does anybody have some kind of software that makes it easier to track
changes to the domains?

Hiya,

The Gorgon's Alliance computer game for Birthright had some domain
action tools added to its final release. Unfortunately Sierra dropped the
product, but it is still quite usable. I don't know if anything else has
been written to date. It would definately be something worth having for
those many player domain actions. :)

Um, well you could do what I did. I made a database and use it to keep track.
You could do it with any Works, Access(harder), or FileMakerPro(easiest)
program.

Unfortunately, I won't be distributing my database as it contains entirely
domain-specific stuff.

More fun with databases: Create a spreadsheet containing all the War Card
info, link it to the database with a war card graphic (I use the BR net logo,
dimmed as the background) and print up all the war cards you need, on demand!

Ahem. 'Course I haven't got the "link" to work yet, but hey! it's still
useful to me.

I might be able to throw a little something together.

The problem is my Birthright experience is relatively limited. I just
started reading the rules and experimenting about a month ago. But, if
everyone who would be interested in such a program threw in a little wish
list of what they would like to see it do then I could just write it based
on the input from the Birthright veterans.

I have also written some other freeware AD&D utilities on display at the
website listed below. This should give you an idea of what to expect.

Let me know what you think,

You could go to Eric Dunn's PBeM page.
it's at

http://ascent.cyberserv.com

There he has some utilities that are useful for this kind of thing.
