EP 5 - Life before DM

I finally got a chance to use two of the DM combat rules that took me months to understand - sort of understand. This episode will be the last until things settle down for me and my work schedule, apologies for the out of the blue hiatus - but fingers crossed I manage to level out my life haha.

Weirdly been on this kick of wanting this whole Player's handbook to be over and done with so that we can see our friends in person again. So that's what today's episode is about. Honestly, everyone has feelings like this and I want everyone to know, its okay, and we can all rant about it until the day comes when we can get things to back to normal.

I still feel like a beginner DM, however today I'm sharing some skills I've learnt, tips and tricks to generally help you as a DM. It's not a comprehensive list, just some stuff that I'm currently implementing into my games.  Aka - this episode is me rambling, attempting to explain how I am as a dungeon master.

Playing tabletop games usually require meeting in person to play them - however with social distancing going on, that makes things trickier. Luckily there are a number of tools and resources that lets us play online. I'll be talking about a few of those this episode.
