[QUOTE="Quickleaf, post: 6672161, member: 20323"] Thanks, just watched the first video. Good stuff. Seems like a DM definitely needs to invest *at least* an hour figuring out Roll20 in order to get the basics down. Thanks for the hint about not drawing maps (presumably in some sort of built-in drawing program?). I am an amateur cartographer, but when I don't have time to make something, I've found some nice geomorphic battle maps over here: [url]http://dungeonchannel.com/maps/[/url] Thanks for the tip about distinguishing Fog of War from black walls on the map. And thanks for the tip about the character sheets too. From what I've seen it seems like all the players are into using character sheets thru Roll20 with special macros pre-loaded into the sheets. Ah, so dice rolling is handled by macros? So there is some programming code involved? Is there a way to load up a campaign just so I can dick around with the maps and get familiar with stuff? But without advertising that I'm starting a campaign? Just something for me to experiment and learn with? [/QUOTE]
