So, after almost 2 decades I decided to 0lay DND again. Since I have been and always will be forever DM, I’ve been reading up.

I am very charmed about the idea of foundry (that I have a liscence to (what can I say, I’m impulsive)), but have no experience with.

So: DM’s and players that play locally: how do you play?

Do you do oldstyle pen and paper? Printed maps? 3d printed? Foundry for battle and the rest theatre of the mind? Weird combos?

Tell me and inspire me to navigate my fresh crew and myself through this new and perilous world.

Edit: did NOT expect so many reactions so fast here, loving it.

    I haven’t played in person in a while. I have a wet-erase map and some markers, and a small starter set of minis from an old 4th edition box set. If I were to run in person again though, I would probably just find a way of integrating Foundry, like maybe hooking up a TV for the players to look at, and separately using a laptop for the DM view. Foundry just makes things so much easier. Although if I was in person, I’d probably let people roll their actual dice instead of using the virtual dice.
