This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: jibbajibba;620097I was just cleaning out some of the junk on my android tablet that my daughter had added, severs apps with talkign animals, numerous barbie fashion apps and a huge number of hidden mistry apps (her favourites) and I was lookign to consolidate to a single ebook reader when i stumbled across a number of really sweet little RPG notable apps.
The most interesting for the folks on this site might be 'Old School RPG tables' which lists out all the most important tables from AD&D including UA. So its basically all you need to play. Stats, classes, spells etc etc.
Then there is d20 SRD an entire d20 system that has full feats etc it seems to be modern focus I say seems becuase equipment includes a lot of fire arms but the skills etc have a certain timeless quality. It does 1 very interesting thing with classes where it has 6 base classes, the strong hero, the fast hero, the tough hero, the smart hero, the dedicated hero and the charismatic hero each ties obviously to the core stats. Thought that might be a good one for the debate round thief abilities and such.
Then you have Cthulhoid which has all the short stories, aditional material and colaborations as well as a bunch of audio versions
Weapons Master gives real world descriptions with histories and background on just about every weapon I have ever heard off from a taiaha to a HK417 Battle rifle. Looks like a lot of it comes from Wikipedia but a great resource when you are away from the web and a really great reference.

Of course they are all free. I have seen a load of helper apps for Pathfinder and a slew of junk of course.
Anyone got any good recommends?

I can't seem to turn up 'Weapons Master" on Google or the Play Store. Is it perhaps known under a different name? Thanks!
