Shorthand #HTTRPG #AdventureDesign is "prep for 12 approaches so the PCs can create the 13th."

It's not really that exact, but defining a problem in sufficient dimensions (logistical, political, interpersonal, etc) creates a playground with a lot of factual ingredients the PCs can use to make their own soup.

The design effort required goes _way down_ if the gameworld is _built_ for HTT. The world's own substrate of dimension makes problem design both stronger AND easier.

This one looks particularly interesting. These guys are hit and miss. But when they hit, they hit pretty well.

Practical advice for dungeon masters and players: how to design adventures that work, prep without wasting time, and run sessions that people actually want to come back to. I’ve been running D&D since 1980. This channel is where I share what decades at the table actually teaches you. Think of it as having a mentor who's already made every mistake and can tell you what they learned. Dungeon masters: every month I send a ready-to-use adventure, encounter, or location straight to your inbox. Free. You'll find the signup link in the description of any video. Have fun, stay cool, and keep your dice rolling.
