Tabletop Simulator

My friend ran us a DnD campaign on TTS for a few weeks. It was really handy having Steam for voice chat but we sometimes used Skype.

We enjoyed finding a seemingly unlimited amount of miniatures to download on the Steam Workshop, some of them had animations too. I was really surprised to see that some users had even made dungeon modules and maps for downloading.

Problems we had:
>Lost the theatre of mind.
Our DM spent increasing amounts of time adding more and more detail to the maps, settings, enemies, music, sound FX etc. Which was really nice and thoughtful but only stood to emphasise the gaps in the experience which he didn't fill. I don't know how to explain it in English, I just mean sometimes your imagination is better. Less is more?

>Players messing about
Its very easy and tempting for people to fuck about with the miniatures on the table. Not sure why its just harder for people to pay attention and it was hard for the DM to know who was focused.

I've used it for 40k. Worked really great for me personally. Good way to play with my buddy who loves too far away for it to be practical otherwise.

Used it for Kingdom Death Monster, took some to get used to it, but it's pretty functional.

There is a great starwars armada workshop project that does lots of the little stuff for you. Super well made.

Which mods do you recommend? I noticed that most of the armies mods are incomplete

You have to hunt and mix and match some. And saddly some things you just can't find. Fortunately my army was pretty complete and my buddy was able to just label some of the other pieces in order to reflect the units that were missing. It's not perfect, but you can make it work decently. What armies are you looking for?

Maybe I'm blind but I can not find a Triarch Stalker

Use a giant spider as a proxy?

If you can't find it in the rest of the model groups there is a guy who does custom models that were not in dawn of war (which is where most get ripped from) he did the harlequins and some missing dark eldar stuff, along with mechanicus. He might have your missing necron stuff. I think it was just called custom models. Tell you what, if this is somehow still around in the morning when I wake up I'll go find it and put up a link. I need sleep.

Would you play a Tabletop-Simulator Simulator?

I can proxy everything with anything but that's not the point of playing 40k on tts
