[QUOTE="MarkB, post: 7942520, member: 40176"] I normally go to a gaming club of around 20-30 people on Friday nights, and run a game on alternate Saturdays. Yesterday, I decided to stop attending both of these until after the virus is in decline in the UK. This does unfortunately leave some of the club members in the lurch next month, as I was to be DMing a game from the start of April, but there's already talk of suspending the club next session in any case. As for my Saturday game, after getting things organised at very short notice, I've just finished our game session over Discord, and it all went suprisingly well. I actually had an easier time running combat DMing with a PC in front of me and multiple D&D Beyond windows open than I would have done flipping through books at our usual table, and while we missed the face-to-face aspect we could all hear each other well enough and our game proceeded with the usual mix of fun and banter. By next session I'll have some visual aids such as VTT software set up, and we'll be able to carry on very nearly as normal. [/QUOTE]
