S4-E25: Foundry VTT

This week we discuss one of the newer Virtual Table Tops to the market, FoundryVTT. We talk about some of the things that make this a unique VTT, what sort of 13th Age support it has, and some of our likes and dislikes of it. You can find out more information about this Virtual Table Top and try out a demo of it at foundryvtt.com.

It’s worth noting that between the time of our recording and publishing this episode, an update was released for the Foundry 13th Age system that resolves some of our critiques. For more information, visit the module’s website.
