For the past few months, Jonathan and I have been working on a Redemption workshop mod for Tabletop Simulator. We are finally to the point where we feel it is ready to be released for testing, feedback, and suggestions from the Redemption community!
Tabletop Simulator $20*
First of all, for those that are not familiar with Tabletop Simulator, It's basically in the title. It's a sandbox environment for playing/creating tabletop games. It's as close to a real-life experience as you can get without actually meeting in person to play.

System Requirements/Compatibility
Tabletop Simulator is compatible with Windows, Mac OS X, SteamOS+Linux and has VR support for HTV Vive and Oculus Rift
Recommended minimum system specs are:
Memory: 4 GB RAM
Graphics: Integrated
Network: Broadband Internet connection
Storage: 6 GB available space
The steam shop page has no other system requirements listed. In my experience, Tabletop Simulator is a very lean program and should run on most hardware.
Redemption Workshop mod
This mod includes EVERY card from Original through Fall of Man as well as every Promo/Legacy Rare. Using the ORCID as a starting point for our database we developed a streamlined automated back-end system which allows us to show any card's metadata with a simple hover and provide superb image loading times (Only the images you need are loaded).
Installing/loading the Redemption workshop mod
1. log into steam in your browser
2. Go to this page:
link3. Click "Subscribe"
4. Launch the game
5. Click "Create" and then "singleplayer"
5. Click "Games" in the top left and select the Redemption mod to the right of the blue Workshop button and click "Load".
6. Now you're ready to start creating decks!
Using the Redemption workshop mod
Table Layout
All of the cards have quick spawn buttons along the top by set and card type. Simply click any button and the stack of cards will pop up after the images load (first time takes a bit longer because they are not cached yet). Along the bottom is the search area. Use the filter on the lower left to limit your search. Click "Search" to spawn the cards you want! (limit 500 for performance sake).
You can now build your deck however you would with your regular collection! Except now you have an unlimited supply of cards!
Saving/Loading
When you want to save your deck: stack it up, right-click on the pile, click "Save Object", and Input the name. If you want to keep your reserve separated (which I highly suggest) you can rotate it 90 degrees, place it on top, drag-select both the main deck and reserve and then save it.
When you want to load your deck simply go to "Objects" > "Saved Objects" and click or drag the deck you want.
To save the whole table click Games>Save/Load>Create
