You don't have to run your tabletop campaigns purely with theater of the mind, nor with maximally tactical battlemaps. Split the difference! Our "Hybrid Theater" approach is the perfect way to run immersive campaigns with an emphasis on visual aids.

Run Tabletop Campaigns with Hybrid Theater
Halfway between theater-of-the-mind and strict use of tactical batlemaps, Hybrid Theater is an ideal way to run tabletop campaigns.

The most important detail you have to pin down when worldbuilding your fantasy tabletop cities is what everyone eats. You can’t just have a village in the sky or a city in a volcano and NOT figure out how the citizens get fed.

Introduce a mirror party into your campaigns! Characters that function similarly to the PCs are great foils for your players, and they may help your friends formalize what they want out of their adventure.

Make the Most of Mirror Parties
Mirror parties are a convenient reflection of the player characters. Throw them into a tabletop campaign to force your players to consider who they really are and what they want.
