Res Mythica’s custom virtual tabletop (VTT) and game assistant is Res Auxiliaris. It was designed from the ground up to support Res Mythica’s unique dice resolution system and gameplay loop.
What it does
Res Auxiliaris supports the whole game loop and every type of Roll you will find in the Rules. It will Roll dice (and make sure you do it correctly), manage momentum tokens, manage project clock and action scene progress, etc.
The system also supports the faction phase – action scene game loop and makes sure faction phase turns are done correctly, stopping extra rolls or skipping a player’s turn.
Limited media sharing is also supported.
What it doesn’t do
The VTT does not include abilities, objects, or any rules explanations. Use the Core Rulebook and your Campaign Kit.
You will also need your character sheet, where you write down abilities, injuries, etc. or your factions sheet if you are the GM.
The buttons that affect your character sheet (such as “take injury”) are used to tell the system that you have written down the effect on your sheet and to not count that die anymore, but the system will not track and remember these effects for you beyond that.
External Tools Needed:
- Voice chat or video chat (if players are not together)
- Character sheets, pen & paper
- Res Mythica Core Rulebook & Campaign Kit
Notes
