New to Fantasy Grounds Unity
Hello everyone,
I'm new to fantasy grounds unity and I don't know how to play. Can someone help me get started? I bought this game thinking it will be easy board game on the computer but seems very complicated to use.

No I haven't played games like that before. I used to play a board game once called Hero Quest. Not sure if its kind of similar to D&D. I know in D&D it has a lot to do with your imagination rather than having a board to go along with it. I used to watch some of my friends play when I was younger and it always intrigued me

If you only want to play and not lead players (being a Game Master, Dungeon Master, or something alike) then you normally only need the free demo account.
Here are videos that show the software with different "games" or "ruelsets" in action.

Not seeing it mentioned yet, but I would highly recommend checking into Fantasy Grounds Academy and it wouldn't hurt to join their Discord Server.

Check out the LFG forums https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forum...king-for-Group
Find a game there looing for a player and then reach out to the game master. It may take some time to find the right fit, but keep trying. Also check out the sub-forums for organized play, D&D Adventurer's League and Pathfinder Society. Both runs lots of games and are friendly to new players.

I'm new to this edition too. Indeed, my FG expertise is decidedly limited. I'm hoping the fresh start will do me some good. As it is, I will be looking for games ion such a way that fits my schedule as a writer, reader, and health care consumer.
It should be fun as long as I can find a way to make all my deadlines.FGU Ultimate -- All Players Welcome
