online battle map

vexare · Apr 15, 2005

My regular gaming group has scattered throughout the country, we are now hoping to start an online campaign via msn messenger. Our biggest dillema is finding a suitable system for depicting combat. Does anyone know of an online grid system that could support input from multiple users and function as a sort of map system?

Screen Monkey has such a function I believe, and a map mask function: http://www.nbos.com/products/screenmonkey/screenmonkey-lite.htm

And you can get screen monkey lite a free version, and your players can access thru their web browser.

OpenRPG has never steered me wrong.

OpenRPG, if you like a free utility with everything you'll ever need. ScreenMonkey from NBOS Software if you want something with a more slick interface (it's a commercial product after all).
