"When the GM creates a campaign and starts running a session, all players will get access to the session live screen. This screen has different tools and utilities that will be useful during the session." the POST box is not shown anywhere in my GM screens. THere is no way to communicate to players in WA. Only to the group.

Yes. Can you please suggest that as a feature? Thanks!

I passed the NPC to the player by accident. Is it possible that he would give it back to me?

И вправду интересный вопрос. почему никто не ответил?

One of my players is somehow listed as a NPC, and I can't seem to fix it. Help?

How does one play-by-post using the Storytelling screen?

The feature is not designed for a play-by-post playing style. I think that there's something planned on this front in the future, but I'm not sure.

Yah, that should DEFINITELY be an option...matter of fact, if I were the Head Designer of WorldAnvil, I would have developed the entire system around it (since it is the basic, core mechanic of playing an rpg over the internet...everything revolves around people taking Turns, and play by post allows the break between turns to be indefinite, that’s a pretty powerful feature...to start with).

I still don’t have a clue?

If you tell me what you need help with, I'll be happy to help. But I can't help you if you're question is just "I need help".

Well how can you create a campaign

Dec 24, 2020 10:52

Go to the homepage (click the World Anvil logo to get there) and then click the "Your Campaigns" tab. There you'll find a "Create a new Campaign" button, on the right. Hope this helps!

This is one of the easiest layouts ever made, I like it a lot. Play-By-Post should have been the core mechanic it was designed around, but that’s just mho. A turn consists of players and gm taking turns, and letting everyone know what their character is going to attempt/describe/atmosphere. D$D online back in 93 was done this way, but we used email type thingy (only 4 of us). One kid played like this with his father and showed us....memories, ahhhhh (sigh).

I’ve never played but I would really love to and have wanted to try it for a long time but I’m having trouble with figuring out how to make the character sheet.

Have you followed this guide? If so, let me know at which step exactly are you getting stuck!
