Really nice intro. One comment I would make for a follow up video is that your bit on setting up tokens should really show the strengths of linking tokens, and the wealth of pregenerated monsters available in the Compendium. Also, the setting of Default Tokens really trips a lot of beginning players up. By all means, creating an Ankheg token is important, but going the extra step to show your viewers how they can drag a complete Ankheg, ready to go from the Compendium, and assign your custom Ankheg to it is a vital strength of Roll20. Also, the trick of keeping monsters on a "secret page" pretty much duplicates the purpose of the GM layer. Is there a reason you feel this is a superior method? Other than that those last two&nbsp;bits, the rest of the video is very solid and clearly presented. Nice job!

And I notice that you address the linking in the comments. Moving it up into the description or tacking on a card during the vid would be a big help to new users. Again, great job.
Thanks Keith! I went in to play around with that and blew my mind!! Thank you SO much for the tips and I’ll have to put that in a follow up video! I appreciate it!

Here's a video I made on the subject. I tend to be rather long-winded, and you seem to be able to communicate a lot of information very quickly, so I look forward to your future offerings. Roll20TnT Linking Tokens and Journals
