Great video Paul! Like hearing about others tables. I currently run a 1e group for 6-8 every other week. In person group that has been playing for over 6 years now. Long term campaign that recently finished the G series and are progressing through D1. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work!!
Thanks and Wow! 6 years? That's great. Goals lol
Nice video, I enjoy watching these. I love the huddle-up planning moment. Great stuff! Regarding your Learn to Play games, do you use the full D&D 5e rules, with every sourcebook available? Do you just let the players use the 5e Player's Handbook only? I'm considering running a Learn to Play game at my local library, and I'm thinking of just using the D&D Essentials Kit Rulebook, found in the Essentials Kit boxed set. I'm concerned that the full Player's Handbook might be a bit too intimidating for newcomers, and for a game with a limited time slot (the Library game would only run for 2 hours once a week). That Essentials Rule book is a really nice stripped-down but still robust version of the 5e rules. So I'm curious to hear exactly what D&D 5e rule books you use for your Learn to Play games.
Thank you!
Play games, do you use the full D&D 5e rules, with every sourcebook available?
A: I scale everything down, even the character sheet. Too much information can be distracting and overwhelming, I focus on building the character they want and the basic mechanics. I share places like DND Beyond and encourage them to buy the PHB from their local games store.
Do you just let the players use the 5e Player's Handbook only?
A: Most of my new players have no idea that a PHB exists lol. I ask simple, opener questions like "Where did you learn about dnd?" and "Has anyone played?.What was that like?" This gives me context for their experience and how I integrate it in my approach to teaching.
Thanks for watching.
@@FlintFireforge Thanks for the response! Have you ever considered using Shadowdark for your Learn to Play games, since it is lighter than 5e?
@@brianthomas4383 I have not, only because to most of these players, some who are teens, will likely never run into another Shadowdark player/DM out in wild, although that could change. Also, my game store does not currently stock Shadowdark and I'd like players, if they'd like, to purchase books from him.
