[QUOTE="Fad3, post: 5287311, member: 94021"] Hey, Not sure if this is the right thread, But I've been playing DnD for a little while.. only about six months.. I REALLY like it.. But now, due to work and Stress and well his wife, Or DM wont continue to play. The Group elected me to try to DM Next. (The Last one who tried... well i think we got him to cry on the inside.) I've never Dmed.. I'm barely a real player, thats how new I am. I got a simple story line, and Simple Characters, But I was wondering if anyone could spare some time to go over DMing with me. I know for a fact that my group is Evil (Trust me... I play with them). There sole objective is to break the game. I also know that Two out of three like combat more, while the other is more into the intrigue and plot. The more I try to get the game ready, the more I seem to have to add, At first it was, "Here is the bad guy and this is how to get to him". That turned into "here is the bad guy, this is how you get to him, But you have to gather these clues and oh.. here's an item for your troubles." NOW, I've got five maps, Towns, citys and places of interests on each map. I've got side quests cause i know that group have baaaad ADD. I've got the Good guys lined up with the bad Guys. I've got the names the spells and backstory. And All of it is lined in a binder with Dividers. And I'm stuck. I made a world. And Now i can't push the world forward. I mean.. I got points A and B, And Everything in between, But now I don't know how to get the ball rolling. How to go from What on my paper, To presenting to my Group in a way that not boring and well.. Stupid. [/QUOTE]
