Modified Rolls - How to Prep & Run Published Adventures (Modules, APs, Campaigns, etc.)

from DMs After Dark Hosted by DMsAfterDark

We're back with another episode of Modified Rolls, continuing our little run of "How to Prep & Run [Blank]." Last episode talked about the wonderful world of one-shots, the stress-free experimentation station of RPGs. This time, we're going bigger - the published stuff. That's right, you bought a big written adventure and you're going to run your friends through an epic tale and all the good stuff is right there in that book, right? ... Hopefully! But we're here to help make sure you'll take the extra steps, ignore the unnecessary ones, and be skipping in tandem with your players along a beautiful road to glory. Take-Home Points: The book is just a series of prompts with some of the prep done for you, but don't be afraid to change as much as you want to tailor it to your players' PCs to make the story even better (after all, it's their story, not the book's). Even if you'll never run the whole thing, steal the cool stuff for other games you run!. And, lastly, find the one YOU want to tell, not just the one that looks cool. It'll feel a lot less like prep and stress if you're into the story and you let that come first.
