There are a lot of great Virtual Tabletops out there, but it's no secret that we especially love FoundryVTT. In this video we do a bird's eye view of Foundry, it's features, what separates it from other VTTs, and why you might consider it for your next game.

We dive into Foundry's UI and Layout, showcase some of it's capabilities, demonstrate the tools, and show off some of those sweet sweet modules that make Foundry so special. If you're looking into picking up a VTT, or switching from your current one, you need to check this out!
