Online D&D Session
-
Looks like we've got enough for 2 groups. Next is finding out who is available when. And as for new players, i don't have a problem with it at all, as a DM i love playing with noobs because you never know what they are going to do.
And post if you would like to play D&D or Star Wars Saga Edition, they are very similar, both use D20 and have lots of the same stats, skills, and feats. Just Jedi instead of Wizards.
-
personally id love to get in on some tradish dnd before branching out. schedule's pretty flexible around the weekends
-
I suggest someone makes a spreadsheet (I can do it, if we agree to do so) with times and dates and then individually mark at when we are available. It would be most transparent and easy to work around it.
-
How do you do it online?
-
@UltimateBrent https://roll20.net/ has a lot of nice tools to run sessions online. I think this is what Ben was using for the visual display in TTE before he dropped that.

Whoa! That is fucking awesome. I could finally make my Doctor Who campaign I've always wanted to.
So do you hop in a google hangout or something for an hour, or is there some correspondence or forum way to do it?
-
@Nillend
Please do, creating spreadsheets is my nightmare
-
make a google doc and then everyone signs up!
-
Never played but I'm in.
-
How would people like to play?
Once every week, or once every month? Or something else?
-
@Ehie-Yovach I'm on it
-
@UltimateBrent I think Ben hosted the patron sessions over Google hangout. I imagine any voice/video chatting program would suffice for communication during the session. The website has a community section where you can find/form groups to play with.
-
@Dirokia Cool, I was just wondering if there was some kind of asynchronous way to do it.
-
You can also useTabletop Simulator on steam. I have a discord group that uses it
-
Here is spreadsheet, so you can sign up and we can coordinate and get into groups. Pls follow the instructions. If you have any questions, please ask, so we can play together soon :D

So as we are getting the schedule and groups organized, how do the noobs want to create characters? Are you guys cool reading the books , filling out character sheets and making backgrounds yourselves? I wouldn't mind guiding people through the character creation process, it can get overwhelming at times and I'd rather answer any questions before the actual game starts. It's a real slog when the first few sessions are just question after question about the rules.

Is there a way to observe the session if we don't participate?

I will try to create the character, but if I'll have any question I will ask you before we actually determine when the sessions will start.
