The biggest issue is the game table and that's when a service like
Roll20 comes to play (that's the only one I have used).
Use Roll20 to setup your game, and if Roll20 built in audio/video
doesn't work use something else[*] (we used Google Hangout / Meet). All
of that works in the web browser.

[*] of the 5 players, 3 do computers for a living and we couldn't make
it work yesterday on Roll20, so we switched to use the Google thing for
the audio video. - However it worked last week.
