Re: OOC
I am looking at use of Roll20 so I can use the "fog of war" effects. So far, I have had to make screenshots of maps and paste them in so as not to reveal the next section instead of using one map. This has slowed down our updates.
Agreed that it is challenging to keep track of effects; that has always been the case in 4e. My big bugaboo is keeping track of auras. Just the nature of the system, though.
I will never disclose enemy defenses, guys, sorry. There is waaaaaay too much metagame stuff going on in 4e to begin with; posting the defenses just takes away the last little bit of mystery, and eliminates the benefit of having knowledge skills and making rolls to know things. It's also more accounting work for me, which is already a burden in a 4e game.
I appreciate the suggestion of trying both. As above, though, that is too much work for me in a game that is already plenty of work to maintain (by my standards).
Please log onto the Roll20 game and try manipulating minis in the next couple of days. Let me know if you run into problems.
