Firebird01 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 As we are in lockdown does anyone out there have any recommendations, ideas, thoughts or rants on a suitable platform for remote gaming? Hopefully something that is bandwidth friendly as I am keen to keep my games going throughout the current emergency, no virus is going to stop my PCs from killing themselves in other interesting ways. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loïc Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 (edited) This was discuss (and is currently discussed) here : As I said, I recommand Discord (for the vocal) and Roll20 (for the sheets and applications). See my post (and the others' of course) about it. Good luck ! Edited April 8, 2020 by Loïc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Mindlin Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 I’ve been planning a Dark Streets game on Roll20 (we use zoom for voice/video). Been busy uploading stuff, it’s a lot of work. The BRP default character sheet On Roll20 is *just about* usable. Any techies our there want to make a renaissance character sheet for Roll20??? ill chip in a bit towards crowdfunding someone’s time... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Mindlin Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Further - I would love to run C&C in Roll20 but the number of variants in the rules (factions etc) make it a difficult game to set up online. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butters Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 I'm currently running a slightly hacked version of Kingdom and Commonwealth using Roll20 and Hangouts and it seems to work out okay. Two Americans, a Brit and an Australian so a rather well spaced group. And look for the Renaissance character sheet by Michael S. Bagley on the character sheet drop down menu.

HierophantX Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 That's great to hear! How are you guys managing the crazy time difference? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butters Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 20:30 UK time on a Sunday works for us so a late afternoon for the Americans and it's a super early start for the hero in Oz at around 05:30 I think.🥱 it works out pretty okay I think as we only play twice a month but the Ozzie has missed a couple of starts due to oversleeping (Is that even a thing at five thirty in the morning?)

HierophantX Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Hah! I get up at 6am for telework days and feel like I’m luxuriating in decadence. 🥱 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
