Not easily in Roll20, but Foundry VTT probably does that.

I long ago quit buying plasticrack, but I still love to use these for VTT. Some of the models are pretty sweet. The actual "glow" aspect is not particularly useful, but I could replicate it on the screen much better than at the table.

For my Spelljammer campaign we use Pre-Tasha and then all the spells from Level Up, some Supply and Travel and Fatigue rules, so we've already been playing a sort of "Advanced" version for a while and it works well (the Monster Menagerie is also exceptionally good). When this campaign is done I...

The artwork is pretty fantastic overall. The monster section has taken cues from Level Up Menagerie and is better for it.

I have found in 5e that my players don't particularly like their characters dying. The threat of death is enough to get them sweaty and nervous. Death saves alone can cause hysterics. An actual TPK? Man, that would just ruin the story. Edit: I did run Forge of Fury though and that was...

Before 2020, I would say the Paizo flip mats. I had so many of those and used them often.

This campaign I have been using "Side Treks" when we can't get the whole group together. Last night was one such Side Trek decided at the last minute. One thing I absolutely love about VTT games is that all the work I put into making the maps and encounters are "frozen" until needed, even...

Original copy of Saga of Old City by Gary Gygax. This screams D&D. Also, the original Endless Quest books, like Return to Brookmere by Rose Estes. These were products I had before I was really playing the game much. Like precursors.

It is a really excellent DMG expansion. I don't hear people talk about that one much.

I do that too, I love making my own monster tokens. I needed some space orc vehicles and threw this one together with AI and a bit of Photoshop. The players loved it.

The only time I have ever used dinosaurs in D&D is Tomb of Annihilation. The jungle was teeming with them, both mundane and dangerous. I never had a desire to use them any other place though, and frankly thought too much monster manual space was given to them.

Having done both, and VTT exclusively for almost 5 years now, I prefer DMing online. I was also very map and miniatures heavy in person, and it's a godsend not to print maps anymore or buy miniatures. And now I can use maps for any random roleplaying scene I want, not just combat. And some...

I really like that.

I have not run it yet, but the spells are very evocative and interesting. I like that although some of them feel like D&D, much of the magic system is very much its own thing. My problem would be getting players on board to try something not D&D.

I only play online currently, and my 5e game has a lot of traction left. Sadly, Roll20 has dropped the ball with 2024 sheets, and from what I heard I don't know if they'll even be up to par with the 2014 sheets when all is said and done. I guess there's always foundry in the future, or just...
