Between Bag End & Orodruin

I’ve been pondering how to get a few more board games happening. The thought has occurred to me to try remote board games. I’m considering how best to get an internet camera to effect some games across the internet with geographically distant friends. Of course it’s going to be difficult with the size of the board games I like to play. I’ve yet to determine whether or not, the iMac inbuilt camera will do the job or not; it may be necessary to purchase a separate camera and position it somewhere better. I will probably need something with a bit of zoom anyway. Additionally it’s most likely going to need games that the other has played just to make life a little easier for the remote party. I’ve pondered how we might do it for the games we both have, but not sure how that could be made to work for the random aspects of a game. Research continues.
