Post subject:  Steam "Tabletop Simulator"

I was looking at random stuff on the steam store and stumbled across something called "Tabletop Simulator". Someone built a physics engine and made it really easy to create additional mods for it, then dropped it to the steam store here:
http://store.steampowered.com/app/286160/

$15 for single, $45 for a 4-pack.

Primary idea was so that people could build their own board games or similar into it; then publish to the workshop here:
http://steamcommunity.com/workshop/brow ... touseitems

I really liked the idea, so started browsing the workshop. Lots of classic boardgames with various nice skins (battleship, risk, WoW themed monopoly, etc.).
And then I came across Heroquest:
http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/f ... earchtext=

I still have my original boardgame of this...played the fuck out of it many years back and hanging onto it to play with my son some day. It's a great into-to-D&D setup, and the modeling looks great.

Anyway, I'm actually kinda interested in this concept...

Yep, 30-60 minutes per map. Very simple stats. It's Barney-level D&D.

Keep thinking this will be the 'intro' game that comes free with steam consoles...though that marketing strat may be broken by Gabe. Want it, just not willing to drop $20 on something I cant play with others cause no one has.

I mean, we could just use http://roll20.net/ and Google Hangouts...

yeah roll20 is pretty badass. i've actually used it as a DM and it's great.

I quit using it because I thought tabletop combat in 4th edition was boring and slow. so i moved to 13th age which has no grid and is more story-telling-oriented.
