<div>Let's keep fishing around for the right tool(s) and then have a get together to discuss.</div>

<div>Personally, I won't be giving up DDO for it because I love DDO for what it is... it's not PnP but as an MMO it's enjoyable :)</div>

<div>I'm nearly 9th level!!! :)</div>

<div>I dont know if players can draw on stuff or post content?</div>

<div>In answer to some of the other questions. I would be willing to DM and I have tons of content which I have been wanting to play people through for years, and also I know that Joe and Bren are interested in such a game.

Combat and skill/save/whatever checks in D&D
3.5 are a whole lot simpler in terms of resolution than previous versions but there are a lot of options open to you (disarm, trip sunder, coup de grace etc). Combat is also fought on a squared board which takes a lot of the guesswork and petty arguments about who can move where and hit whom out of it.
<br><br>There are a number of virtual tabletops already in existence, Dragon is full of ads for them every issue, I'll try to get a list of them so we can check them out. The best of these might even take a lot of the drudgery of *snort* "roll" playing out of the "role" playing *chortle*. Gosh, what a clever play on words. ;)
<br><br>To start with though:<br><a href="http://rptools.net/doku.php" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">http://rptools.net/doku.php</a>?<br><br>Now, the real question is: who'll DM? :)

<div>Skype 3.0 has a virtual drawing pad under extra sections. I haven't used it though. that could be used for both communication and drawing then. We'd need the dice program though, unless we all have web cameras and could roll live....cool :-)

<div>I started DDO in order to get a good DND buzz up again, and play with you guys. I loved PNP in college, and I would be interested to see how this would pan out. An intriguing idea, definitely and a chance to start over without the drudgery of repeating quests or REP runs. The new content is fun, we're playing tight little team now but I still am right clicking the ass off my mouse every evening, and tumbling and eventually getting squished. There will be more control in a PNP situation, thought a lot of it will be new to me as I haven't played the new rules. I do have the newest PHB though.
</div>
<div>Surely the computer guru's in our group could write a dice prog in like 1 hour?</div>
<div>We could see if Conor wanted back in and see if Chop would like to start up with us as well. No maximum party players, no confinements.</div>

Part I is teamspeak, easy, solved.<br>Part II is some means of putting up shared content<br>Part II is a virtual table top of some description<br>Part IV is an area to scripple on.<br><br>I have found Battlegrounds and Open RPG, they may be a goer. And GE

<br>What would be ideal is a facility to put up an image and for<br>everybody to be able to draw on it (different colors) and some sort<br>of dice roller.<br><br>Couple of questions; Would anybody be interested in this kinda game?
