I’m thinking of running a Mothership campaign in the near future, but my group typically plays over Zoom and not everyone has a device that can support a VTT, so all of our games tend to be “theater of the mind”. No complaints, I’ve played this way for years.
If you’ve played Mothership, do you think it would be runnable without a TT/VTT, or is that pretty essential?


I’ve run a small campaign of mother ship and a one shot. I didn’t use any visual aids other than a map of the space station as a handout. No issues whatsoever so it should be totally fine to run theatre or the mind.
