Has anyone tried running Castles and Crusades with roll20.net?

I run a game (it was two games, but the second one is on an extended hiatus). Been playing about a year now. It works great and I couldn't be more pleased with it. Do you have any specific questions?

Yep, just got done running a Traveller game tonight on Roll 20.
Since its 20,000 I suggest "Captain Nemo" as his title. Beyond the obvious connection, he is one who sails on his own terms and ignores those he doesn't agree with...confident in his journey and goals.

How does one go about finding a group to play C&C on roll20.net? I'd eventually like to run games myself using something like this but thought it would be better to start as a player.

While there is a drop-down menu for choosing the game you wish to play, C&C isn't on there. I know we are talking with roll20 about getting us up there, but, as of yet, it hasn't happened. I was told if they see a significant number of people in their LFG forums, they will eventually put it on the list. Steve and I are currently looking at TLG making some headway into the site, possibly having some C&C stuff in their Marketplace. It's all tentative right now, though.

The best thing you can do is post in their "Looking For Group" part of the forums. I know there are plenty of C&C players on there.

The Trolls might start by talking to Roll20 to include official C&C character sheets in Roll20 when that feature comes out in May. Not sure how that feature will be implemented but might be good and relatively simply way to start getting C&C noticed there. I've emailed them too and asked for C&C to be put on their list of games, and got the same response.

It's a bit annoying as I think a lot of us, use roll20 but find players elsewhere, so they're not using the Looking For Game forums, so aren't being noticed by the roll20 folks.

Yeah, I didn't need to look for players, since my groups migrated over from Maptools to Roll 20. So all my players, aside from my originals who have been with me for over 6 years now, were found right here on these forums.

Excellent. I'll be first in line to start using 'em when that feature is released in May.

Tonight? Yeah, I can do a one shot, but won't be able to commit to a long term game, I am already in 3 per week on line.

Yeah, just give the link they give you, then it will be added to the campaigns I've joined list once I use it.

Sorry Aergraith, it looks like I missed you. I did have session tonight and, despite a few bugs, found Roll20.net to be the best thing I've come across so far to play RPGs online.

I'm thinking I might start a new, Internet based gaming group. When I work out the times, I'll make a new post on the forum here for anyone interested.
