Pick Battlegrounds: RPG Edition if…
BRPG suits groups looking for a desktop virtual tabletop that can accommodate different RPG rules and genres, as well as some boardgames and wargames. A GM who needs to host sessions will need a GM Client license; the Player Client cannot host.
Pick VASSAL Engine if…
VASSAL suits board- and card-game players who want online, email, solitaire, or hotseat play, as well as users who want to build or modify game modules. It is not for players seeking a computer opponent to enforce the rules.
