[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 4632227, member: 22779"] Skype is incredibly easy. You will need a headset and a mike, but it's free and it handles conference calls. You can pick up a headset and a mike pretty cheap. I use OpenRPG and have done so for years. It works and it's pretty good. It can be a bit unstable at times though and every now and again someone tends to get booted/dropped from the room. Can be a real pain sometimes. I have never tried MapTools, but, I've heard nothing but good things about it. Note, depending on how fast your players can type, you might not even need the headset. :) As far as handling 4e rollers, that would be a cinch. You'd simply have to type up your rollers in a text node, and then cut and paste to the chat window as needed. With a bit of work, you can set everything up to one click and it will just go to the chat window. I know it really helps my 3e game. [/QUOTE]
