As one of the more helpful/ friendly boards I’ve seen, I thought I would avail myself and throw out a question. My group is older and scattered across the country. We play online one night a week for a few hours using Skype for voice and jpeg maps plastered on excel files. It’s like playing bingo, “I move from K5 to K9…” and then everyone adjusts their maps.
What we are looking for is very simple. We had been using Screenmonkey with great success, but it started getting spotty and not working.
We have looked into Fantasy Grounds, Battlegrounds, etc… but it’s all too much. We do not need a built in rule set, character sheets, even dice rolling. I just want a map function that we can all share, the DM can hide what needs hiding and everyone can move their “miniature.” Does anyone have a similar situation and how did you solve it?
Thanks!
