Need roleplaying "Theater of the mind" walk thru using FG

[ProfDogg]

I frequently use TotM in combat for my 5e and SW games. Sometimes I'll drop a backdrop image so the PCs can put tokens down and then I can also drop NPC tokens to show the number of enemies and such left. But then I just narrate the events and provide approximations of distance and such. I'll describe a move as a "quick dash can get you there to be able to swing" or "you'll need to run all-out to arrive and you'll be too out of breath to attack" and such. If a PC makes a reasonable argument that they're should be flanking I usually give it. The players can either drop dice on the tokens or they can do it in the chat box and then I'll just manually calculate everything as it comes up.

Here's my most recent battle scene:

That is a great idea! The battle map is just a graphic photo or a scene and not an actual battlemap. I never thought of that.
