Torg Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 Does anyone use or have tried TableTop Simulator or tried Vassal for war-games? I have a friend whom lives in another state and we play Armada when he is in town. We would also play other table top games as well over the internet when time allowed. Can anyone give me a review or gamer opinion on either or both of them? Looking at TableTop Simulator more than Vassal - but either could be solutions. I have no experience with them so hoping someone here has some insight. -don 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duckman Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 I have a copy of TableTop Simulator but the entry curve for it is steep. I have looked for GW pieces and been unimpressed with what I have found to boot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torg Posted July 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2019 hmmm I am looking mostly to play non-gw games with my friend from New Mexico - currently Armada - but it could branch out. I was thinking at 20$ or less TableTop Sim may be worth the try. I will look for me how to vids - to see what kinda education I will need to undertake before buying though. Thanks! -d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 3, 2019 Report Share Posted July 3, 2019 If it's a turn based game, could just both have a copy and take pictures between turns. Or just write down the moves. Like chess by mail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InfestedKerrigan Posted July 6, 2019 Report Share Posted July 6, 2019 I was looking at TTS recently, cuz I found a mod for the Battletech TCG, with all expansions. /DROOL Vassal works pretty well. Playing Armada on it would be swell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixxer Posted July 21, 2020 Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 I played my first game of Malifaux 3E on Vassal last night and it was amazing. I highly recommend. If you know the rules of the game you are playing, vassal merely just takes time to learn how to move the icons and set information on them. Other than that its pretty basic bare bones stuff. If anyone is looking to play a game of M3E via Vassal LMK, I'd be down! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyraeus Posted July 21, 2020 Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 I have played 40k and Battletech on TTS. Works great I used Vassal for SW Armada many many years ago. I was....infamous on their forums for a time. It was good for games but real table top experience did vary. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
