The Elder Scrolls 'The Ultimate Journey' - Music Compilation

Theater of the Mind is No Excuse to Just Fake It

The topic came up over on therpgsite.com about using minis or using "theater of the mind", especially during combat. For my games, where we use Mongoose Traveller, it's strictly role-playing in our heads only. No maps, no minis, no initiative, no combat rounds. Actions happen in real-time.

Anyway, I've already done videos in the past on this subject. Here's RPGPundit's video on the matter.
