How can we use digital technology to improve our games?

In this episode of GURPStalk, Pat and Che dive into the intersection of technology and tabletop gaming. They focus on how GCS (GURPS Character Sheet) automates the math of character creation, taking the headache out of tracking points and skills.

Pat breaks down his setup using Foundry VTT via The Forge, showcasing how cloud-based hosting streamlines the remote experience. The duo explores the shift toward digital dice, automated sheets, and map management, reflecting on how the pandemic permanently evolved gaming culture. It’s a deep dive into balancing high-tech tools with the traditional spirit of the game.
