Billy has a great understanding of the game and the VTT he uses (Fantasy Grounds). He keeps things moving and is good at checking in with players when not in combat to keep people engaged. He has a great knowledge of the rules for 5e and his mastery of Fantasy Grounds is top notch. People feel comfortable asking questions and his responses are clear and easy to understand. He is easy to get in touch with to ask more detailed questions and is very patient with players both new and experienced. I look forward to our weekly sessions with great enthusiasm.
I've had Bwatford as a DM for about two years, and he has never failed to bring enthusiasm and quality to each session. He is both lenient and firm when needed and he's often willing to allow the rule of cool for a more fun outcome for everyone involved. His top priority is that everyone at the table is having fun and it shows. You can't go wrong with a game run by Mister B!
I am so glad i found Billy as a GM. He keeps the pace of play going, especially early on when the group is still getting to know one another. His communication is top notch, which really helps with schedule consistency. His use of Fantasy Grounds is so impressive and the maps he uses are a lot of fun, especially the really big ones with multiple floors. I have enjoyed DnD so much with Billy i joined another of his campaigns.
