Been working on our Thursday campaign in roll20 – I like how our landing page/world map has turned out!

1. Looks awesome.

2. Is this a result of play or did your group set out to design a realm first? Very nice looking map!

3. Roll20 allows you to create maps like that?

4. No, that’s just a image on the map.

5. Was that map hand drawn or computer generated then? It looks great.

6. Looks like it was made with photoshop.

7. I often wish I had even a sliver of artistic ability. 

8. That is an outstanding map.

9. Hey all that is not my map! I WISH I could make a map like that! That was shared by the creator on Reddit, he put it here for anyone to download: curtisw800i.deviantart.com/art/The-Wooded-Vale-437245252 He also did a blank map version  but I liked his town names! I just turned the map into a landing page for my players in roll20.

    We played one session last week and then I found a map to represent the world we’ve created.

    The guy who made it did it in photoshop with with a brush set from here: http://www.deviantart.com/art/Sketchy-Cartography-Brushes-198264358

12. Wow, looks really great. We are using roll20 too, but we only use dice macros. I am interested in how you programmed your macros, since they seem to cover all basic and special moves. Could you describe how you did it?

13. Roland P

    Sure! Those are token actions (macros attached to a token) and I just put the applicable dice roll into the macro and a description of the move. Here is one example:

    “On  a  10+,  you  do  what  you  set  out  to,  the  threat  doesn’t come to bear. On a 7–9, you stumble, hesitate, or flinch: the GM will offer you a worse outcome, hard bargain, or ugly choice.

    [[2d6 +@{selected|CON}]]

    (If you roll 6 or less, mark XP.)”

    Each player will put their stats on their Roll20 Character Sheet and the macro will pull the stats and spit out the roll.

    I learned it all from here. I wish I could share a copy of my campaign so others could have the character sheets and macros and everything already set up. 🙁

14. Thanks, and yes it would be great if roll20  would be more open to sharing stuff, like maptools. Ill make a a feature request.

15. Actually there is a way to do that Jessa… but you have to make sure that you have the rights to distribute all that information, images, etc. You can create a base campaign with all that stuff set up ahead of time and talk to the devs about making it a module.

    A module, huh? Thanks for the information, I will keep it in mind! I would just make a blank campaign with just the macros/token actions and templates included.
