Just found this last night as our old dice roller we use for RP is no longer active. Just like to say what and outstanding job guys this is utterly brilliant. We will start using it for our Cthulhu Cyberpunk and Fantasy RP nights.Thanks again on a great job :)

Hey again guys was just wondering if there is a way for the GM to give rights to a player to help out with stuff like the music and atmos effects as a start. To take away the work load off the main GM. Its our first night trying it out. We are loving it but... We do tend to play our RP nights in real time. So big work load for 1 GM so we do tend to have GM + Imp :P Thanks again guys great system.

Can this be used with games like Deadlands, World Of Darkness and Star Wars D6 where you will need to reroll and add on or use Cards for initiative?

they're planning to add modules (pre made campaigns) but you can make them live or before inviting other players to join.

So, are these campaigns premade? Or can they be made live?

Had my first "real" game today - that wasn't all prep and fumbling around with new stuff. Good job you guys! This tutorial helped a lot, too.

Actually if you have a grid image in place you can go gridless and then use it however you the user.

it works with nearly anything.

This is an amazing tool that can work with not just any RPGs but also with boardgames too, my experience so far is that it makes playing games so much easier that i use the tool even when playing in person.
