Tabletop Simulator general

Play MTG modern / edh is very popular and frogtown.me makes it easy to create cards.
Also games like eldritch horror is actually playable unlike the real life version.

not that user but ive played some 200 hours of 40k on TTS and theres really not many issues with it. The most finicky bullshit comes with terrain not having a hitbox thats appropriate(for example a tree is going to have an inch of invisible space that you cant interact with)

That also means that doorways are a no go.

Dice rolling is also slower unfortunately.

We use Tabletop Simulator for our weekly RPG-meetings. We're spread all over the country so it's hard to meet up in meatspace.
Sometimes we use 2d maps spread onto the table with "custom table", sometimes we go the extra mile and build 3d maps with Workshop add-ons.
The 3d effect deepens immersion for us, because there's no "blah this room is 50x50 feet blah", but more of an intuitive approach to tactics and how the world looks.

So I'd recommend trawling through the steam workshop for some nice mods, building some maps in your free-time (DnD/fantasy assets are easier to find than Sci-Fi ones) and having a game with your old RPG group that split up due to college or w/e.

Tabletop Simulator isn't optimal by a long stretch, but it can be a fun tool!

I love playing mtg with my friends and random people through TTS

why don't you save up 500$ and play 40k as a hobby rather than a ownership fetish.

I tend to think TTS works best for lighter boardgames. It can also work for larger, more involved games, but the more moving parts you have to worry about the fiddlier it gets. If you only need to worry about a few dice, cards or tiles, it's pretty much the best board gaming experience you can get short of a real group.

Yeah, that is pretty much the issues I was talking about. Some of the models having just HUGE invisible boxes around them pisses me off, but all in all I've had a lot of fun.

what if you dont have any?

Play HeroQuest. Do it, faggot.

>play 40k as a hobby rather than a ownership fetish.
isn't that what he's doing by NOT spending $500 on owning parts of the game?

How do character sheets work in Tabletop Simulator?

doesn't have native support, except a small text area for keeping notes.

I'd recommend keeping a paper-and-pen character sheet next to you while you play, or using a text document open in the background.

Who here likes Digimon and card games?

DIGIMON BATTLES card game.

What? Why?

I'm considering getting this from sale, mainly for RPGs. Looks pretty comfy and immersive. The thing is, my friends aren't really into it. Is there any good online community(skype group or whatever else) where I can quickly find people for one-shots or campaigns in tabletop sim?

Veeky Forums's discord:
discord.gg/RwhRw

You can play URealms. That's something.

If you've got a crew and Skype or whatever other thing, Tabletop Simulator can be good times.

Is there a good general purpose minis collection on the workshop? I want to run a game for some out-of-state friends and need more minis.

It has a square grid that you can snap things to. it works well for 1x1 and 3x3 minis, not so much for anything else.

I want to get Tabletop Simulator to play some RPGs with friends on the other side of the country, but they so non-committal whenever I ask if they want to get in on it. Extremely frustrating.

Anyone have a backup of a mage knight mod? The links to the assets in all the mods on the workshop are dead.
