[QUOTE="oswallt, post: 5959153, member: 63970"] Both Roll20.net and Fantasy Grounds are good options. With Fantasy Grounds you still have to have everybody install the software and connect up, but you get a lot more power in the form of automation and integration. With Roll20.net it is super easy and it still has a lot of features, though not as much as you will get with any of the desktop programs. Roll20.net can also be used for free, so that's a plus in it's favor if it can do everything that you want it to. There's a new online VTT called [URL="http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/joshuha/tabletop-forge-the-virtual-tabletop-for-google-han"]Tabletop Forge[/URL]. It is free and runs in Google+ hangouts, so it's easy to use. They're doing a kickstarter for it right now, so you can get a few extras if you want to help fund it. The possible downsides are that you have to use Google+ and that it will still be in beta for the next couple of months. I happen to be a fan of MapTools because it is opensource, so I feel obligated to give the standard opensource battle cry, which is "The community is great, so if you're willing to spend the time fiddling with it, they will be happy to help you out."
