[QUOTE="Blue, post: 6988221, member: 20564"] FG has a lot of good things, and if you run published modules and are willing to buy them again through them all of the prep is done for you if you run it strictly by the book. It's also not that cheap, and the fact that it covers 90% means that it's really noticable for the 10% it doesn't cover. For instance, last campaign I was lpaying in on FG it couldn't handle Paladin auras, so while all to-hit and damage was automatic, the DM often needed to manually undo things because saves were actually made or there was resistance to spells up. That said, when it's working and you've moved past a bit of the learning curve like area of effect targeting, it's gets out of your way and lets you play. I don't have Roll20 experience. I've done MapTools where we handled all mechanics ourselves like around a table, but Roll20 has a lot more. From what I understand it's a bit more mature, and people rave about it's fog of war.
