Hello, I am familiar with FG and DM 5E a lot. I joined the channel to learn more. I want to say how amazing I think this is. What a wonderful idea! The level of support for each other in the D&D/FG community is glowing and healthy. This just does not exist much anywhere else.
I want to encourage anyone looking for a way to get into gaming again. Join the discord channel and see what the Fantasy Grounds has to offer.
Thank you for your kind words! Try to visit #class-planner and maybe there's also something for you as an experienced FG user.Quote:

Hi there! I am very interested in getting back into playing D&D again. I played for nearly 15 years from AD&D through to the beginning of 3rd edition. I have never played online before and I have recently just studied up on 5th edition and it looks fun! Would you be interested in teaching an experienced RP'er how to play 5e on Fantasy Ground?
I'm really excited to get back into this!
Regards!
Please join us, we will help you out! https://discord.gg/Ew6nYyw
I would love this. Maybe we could find a few more new folks to roll something out with?Quote:

Hello everyone!
I'm new to Fantasy Grounds (used Roll20 <year about 2-3 years ago), and newer to DnD, having played ~2 3.5e campaigns, DM'd a 5e campaign, and played ~3 5e campaigns. I know its going to break your heart, but I've never played a character past level 6 myself (my campaign got to lvl 15 before it died due to time constraints). I think its great that there's an integration of learning the software and playing some DnD, and am interested in catching the next match or two (even if only in a spectator capacity). Please let me know where I can check upcoming dates, thanks!
If you are interested in "spectating" there are TONS of videos on YouTube (I have 500+ alone) using Fantasy Grounds. Do a google search for a campaign you'd like to watch, Have fun!Quote:

Everyone is so helpful and there are alot of classes available in a variety of time slots. If you want help learning FG, maybe learn a new game system, or just meet some other rpg enthusiasts, come on over! Tell em I sent ya! (and they'll be like, "Who?") :P
Who? ;-)
I'm glad it has been helpful
Would your community be a place for a person who hasn't played a game in 20 years and would like to get back to it? I have no intention of ever being a GM just want to play. I was looking at your site and reading replies it seems to be leaning more for DM's. Also does your group just support D&D or other games as well? I don't have a local group to play with, and don't like leaving my house much anyways, so FG seems the way to go. Also should a person be familiar with the rules or are there ways of learning through play without buying the material if you just want to try it out. (not that i'm looking to be a leach, I'll happily buy them if it something I will use.) Sorry for all the questions, I have a bit of anxiety meeting new people and wanted to know if it would be worth it to muscle through that to achieve what I am looking for. I do use discord and voice so I'm not that anxious, just a little shy at first. I appreciate your time in answering these questions.
