Other Websites to Help Your RPG

Awesome Websites to Help Your RPG Game
The very best RPGs come not from one single source but from a combination of many different games, stories, and the imaginations of players. To help you create the greatest RPG experience, I’ve put together a list of awesome websites for all your RPG needs, including the things you didn’t know you needed!

General Websites and Tools

It’s easy to forget the simple things. There are a few tools that can come in handy just to get players started. Before your epic adventure (or epic character) can take form, you may need a few basic things to get started. GMs and players both benefit from a word processing program on the computer, and if you want to create some visual aids, an image editor of some type is useful.

Open Office is a free open source suite which contains a word processing program, spreadsheet program, and a few other things. If you do not have something already, Open Office works great.

GIMP is a free open source graphics program. It is great for coming up with maps, images, and character portraits. It doesn’t take a graphic artist to create images for a quest. Anyone can create basic image resources that can really make a Atomic RPG System game stand out. Try out GIMP today!

Having something that lets players easily communicate with each other during play is helpful. Chat and video programs can be used both for remote play and in-person play. There are lots of options but one that works great and that many people already use is Skype.
