What to Spend $50 on For Your D&D Hobby

Listen Later

Welcome back to How to Be a Better DM

This is another RAW episode, which means more personality and less polish.

I'm your host today, Justin Lewis.

Today we talk about what I would spend $50 on to improve my D&D hobby.

This is my list:

  1. A dungeon master screen
  2. A new Sourcebook
  3. A large tablecloth and some pipe cleaner
  4. A lot of Foam and some paint
  5. A set piece
  6. Some LED lights
  7. A simple sound system
  8. Minis I guess
