Mothership without a tabletop (lemmy.world)

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 dozen sessions of Mothership and never used any kind of minis or tokens to track movement.

I do highly recommend the official mobile app though as it has a character sheet tracker and dice roller and can join people together in a game session.
