Does the game show me my range of damage? I know my sword is 1d8 and I get +4 for strength, but does the game show that anywhere?
Instead of starting multiple threads with one question each, you probably should made one thread entitled "New Player Questions" or something. When you're in combat, if you click on the little d20 symbol in the lower right hand corner it will bring up the dice roll log. If you click on any blue text in that log, it will give you a pop-up window that lists the appropriate rolls and modifiers. For example, to see how much damage your character is doing, click on the blue text that lists how much damage he did after a successful attack.
