I wonder if there are any modern games still offering PBEM support.
The Field of Glory II games do have a PBEM option but it's more
integrated into the game and uses Slitherine's servers to exchange the
'e-mails' for each turn.
I don't know why, but that makes me weirdly happy that such an old
game-play model is still supported. I'm halfway tempted to install the
game just to try it out.
For old school features try Conflict of Heroes: Awakening the Bear. That has the option of a dice cam. As its name suggests you get a dice cup, position your camera over it and then roll the dice.
If you want the blend of modern and new then you can get physical dice (with LED's of course) that know what number was rolled and then transfer that to a VTT. They are stupidly expensive and there's been concerns raised about how unbiased they are compared to a normal die.
