Keith Ammann, author of The Monsters Know What They're Doing, discusses monster tactics, preparing for combat sessions, and the best ways to level up your encounters to make them even more exciting.
My First Dungeon is the tabletop role-playing podcast where we put first-time DMs through their paces as we build and run their first adventure and then circle back around to discuss what went right, what went wrong, and how they can make their game better.
