Thread: #dnd encounter design tip: Before you start to design your encounter, you need to know how it fits into your overall adventure – and what kind of campaign you are running. Is your game focused on resource management or set-piece over-the-top encounters? 1/3

If you run just one or two big encounters per session, you are going to design encounters one way. If your game is about surviving a long crawl through a dungeon with many battles, you'll want to design differently. 2/3
