Looks like I'm going to be running a game on Roll20 once a week. I'll be using Gamma World 1e, with little to no modifications. The only thing I'm changing is the tech roll, I'm going to use a homebrew percentile roll rather than the tech table in the book. Which is basically a game within a game.
I'll probably use discord for voice/chat and roll20 for dice rolls. Typically I don't use battle maps in roll20, and usually stick with theatre of the mind. The game is however a bit more tactile, so I may have to use a few maps here and there for fights only.
I have been slowly writing up a few encounters. While on vacation this week I'm going to write up a few small dungeons. This should give me a decent amount of gaming.

Without further ado, here's the encounters thus far.
1. Over grown road, huge pile of metal objects covered in vines. Under the foliage are the remains of a large vehicle (police riot transport). 2 Win Seen cover the area. HP 46,41 AC 9, SONIC ATT 2D6, CONTACT POISON PARALYZE 14. Inside the vehicle: Skeletons with riot gear (sheath armour) AC4, Batons 1d8, med pack (1d6+1). The Win seen give off a scent that attacks predators to protect them inadvertently. In 1d6 rounds Dog Pigs show up hungry. AC 8, 1d6+2 bite, HP 20. The Dog Pigs are a cross between a wild boar and a rottweiler.
2. A large metatlic building with no obvious doors. There is a computer terminal and a metal window screen. Figuring out the terminal will require a tech roll of 15%. A blood tester will open the window with food. Only pure blood humans can operate the blood tester. If the PCs wait, they will see a PSH green hman se the computer and leave. (There is a small PSH colony nearby).
3. A plastic building with overgrown bush. 50 ft above is a metalic road (rail tracks). There is an elevator inside the building that doesn't work and stairs to get to the landing. This is basically a train station. There are tracks that lead west to a military installation and east to a trading city. A very good chance that there will be a half derailed train somewhere along the tracks.
4. West of the forest: The next few miles are open terrain. A low 3 ft greenish haze covers the area. Nothing grows, the ground is rocky and treeless. Radiation Lvl 9 if moving thru it. Moving around it there will be the following encounters.
