It's not YOUR campaign anymore!

Hi everyone, thanks for listening and I can't tell you how much I appreciate it that you made it this far.  This episode we talk about the importance of thinking about the story arc.  Recognizing that your players have an impact on the world and that the campaign now has co-authors.  We also introduce the first ever DM challenge.  The challenge is there, give it a shot and let me know how it goes.  I'll give you a hint, it's short and angry all the time.  As always, I hope that you'll leave a message for me to work into future episodes, and of course, Happy Holidays!

Where the hell are we?

So, you've decided to start a campaign, well now you need to provide a setting so your players can start immersing themselves in your world.  We discuss the task of creating a town/city or country, while following the mantra of "Start small...get big."  We also have our first DM's Toolbox where we highlight DonJon's fantastic Fractal World Generator.  As always please feel free to leave a message or send an email.  Thanks for listening.

Baby Steps

So you've decided to start a campaign?  In this episode we highlight starting a campaign on a budget (i.e. don't buy every book in the store), common challenges and focusing on making sure that you and your players have similar expectations.  We also have our first Reference Tomb challenge, so I'm hoping to hear back from a lot of you...a lot meaning more than zero.  Thanks for giving this podcast a chance.
