Whether you’re considering becoming a DM or are a new DM, here are some tips to help you on your new hobby path.
Tip1: Make The Game Work For You.
One of the most important things you can do is "Roll with the punches" you have created this wonderful world for you players to explore the only problem is they go off and do something you never expected leaveing you and your story in the dust. Instead of making them just play the story the way you want, you should let whatever is going to happen (as long as it doesnt break the rules) happen. Your story should be flexible and you can always tie your story into what the players are trying to do. For example : you want the players to explore a cave that is on the outskirts of town because there is a tribe of goblins that have taken it over, then the players find out that it is the main export of the town so they will go broke if someone doesn't help, but the

That's a great question. In my group I have half RP and half battle heavy players so typically what I do is instead of determining whether or not there's going to be a combat in an encounter I really let my players choose. Most of my fights are optional and then when they do get into a fight I typically like to make it very complex and challenging to appeal to the players that really like combat. It is really good to find out before you start playing what type of players you have then you can figure out ways to appeal to them I will write another blog about this soon.
