Danny, I like what you're doing here... is this a new series Roll20 is kicking off? I know for me, I would love to see how to take a marketplace purchase & use it effectively in Roll20. Like Tyranny of Dragons, or any product, how does it go from my purchase to actually using it to run a game. A sample session with showing how to use maps, or create maps would be amazing too. The layers you spoke about, could you in the future expand on that & why that is helpful to GM's. This was a fantastic quick overview, just wondering if more detailed videos might be on the way. Love Roll20 & very excited about the future with Demiplane. Keep up the great work.

Hi there! We've got a couple of tutorials that can help guide you through a couple of those steps (using a book purchase: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZOTmGeQZdmhjZosi=oSH6BZix7WELmc2t), including ones for aligning maps to grids and setting up Dynamic Lighting! That said, we know that Roll20 has undergone some major changes since those were released, so we're updating our Tutorials to reflect those changes and provide the best possible information for our community. Stay tuned!

This is just what I needed. Thanks for the awesome video ❤

Being able to drag those custom initiative rolls will be a good help. Thanks. :)

Oh I was just thinking about going back and trying to master roll20.

[@mrsquirell879]

I would love to do that but I don't know how to get the maps 😢

It would be nice if all the D&D 5E modules got upgrades. Van Richten’s still only has some blue player tokens usable, and it cannot be mixed with the Curse of Strahd module (unlike the Candlekeep Mysteries and Radiant Citadel modules, which *can* be added to other adventures).

Too fast! You're assuming the watcher knows what the hell you're talking about as you flash through each button/icon. This barely taught me anything about how to GM on Roll20.
