What is the Ruling on House Rules in D&D?
Hello, and Welcome to How To Be A Better DM. My name is Tanner Weyland, and together we will learn about how to prepare the best adventures and environments for our players to enjoy. Today, we are going to jump right into the announcements!
First, Rob from Dungeons, Dragons and Psychology will be running a one-shot for some of our listeners this Saturday the 19th at 7 PM. We will be streaming the one-shot live to YouTube, so check us out there at the link in the show notes: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDjN4ICKUuW7HSNI_Nsv6Wg

Other than that, we have a favor to ask you: We are always trying to be better dms, for sure, but we also want to become better podcast hosts so we can be more helpful and interesting to you. As part of that, we need your feedback. We set up a super quick survey at https://betterdungeonmaster.com/feedback. If you could take a few minutes out of your day to help us, we would be so appreciative!
Today’s topic is House Rules: What makes a good house rule, and what are some good and bad examples?
