I don’t know if I call this a candle. It looks good, sure. Will it bring new people into the hobby? Maybe. It does have a bit of a draw to D&D Beyond which I don’t think is necessarily good.

RPG tip from the archive: Inflicting damage when hit is a great way to scale threat with the number of characters. An ancient red dragon with fireshield is a truly deadly experience.

RPG tip: Watch out for too many downward beats in a dungeon crawl. Add fun and useful encounters as well.
