Plus I mainly use it for maps, which I usually just have to import from the module I am using at the time, plus you can create character (and monster) tokens in which you can create macros, which are also easy to write [1d20+modifiers], [2d8+5], etc..., so all you then have to do to roll dice is push the right macro button. Plus its nice to have a character portrait as your token to best represent how you think your PC looks.So as long as you know how to copy/paste from PDF documents, and can open the proper menu to import, etc... you will soon be doing lots of cool gaming via maptools.I do agree that online gaming is not "as good" as face to face, but you know what? It's still a crap ton better than no gaming, or not having a good friend not able to game with you anymore.Now SKYPE video probably does cause issues if you have a computer with lower ability, but the times I have used it has been on my laptops, which have either 4 or 6 GB of RAM and at least 2.8 GHz processors as well as over 1 Gig video cards, so I probably have more than enough resources to not have problems.</blockquote>
