[QUOTE="tetrasodium, post: 8855019, member: 93670"] That's part of the problem though, they aren't marketing it that way & it's not really [I]used[/I] that way. Players aren't the ones who need to adopt the vtt because the GM is the one who does most of the work involved in building dungeons/running the game/etc. Taking that a step further they might not even be the ones who buy the hardware running/displaying the vtt itself.

But then you're going to be able to take this playset, take it apart & build your own.
