What is the Instant Campaign Builder Project?
As a DM I always have 2 objectives when I plan a campaign.
Create the best campaign ever.
- Not spend any time doing it.
DnD Campaign Management Tools. The Best of DnD Campaign Management from Around the Web. Campaign management is an ongoing struggle for every DM. Knowing your players, your NPCs, story lines, and all the details in-between is tough. We've collected the very best in campaign management tools to help you keep everything straight!
They seem to be contradictory goals. Well, they are. Compromises have to be made. The more time you spend planning and plotting, the better your campaign should be. But I believe that it is possible to prepare a quality campaign without spending too much time at the drawing board.
Over the next 2 weeks I’ll share my thoughts on optimizing prep time, channeling inspiration and creating unforgettable scenes.
The objective
- Campaign PLANNER. Not only can this high-quality notebook be customized to perfectly fit your needs, but the unique disc-based binding lets it keep up and adapt as your needs change. Add, remove, and rearrange pages, swap out the cover, upgrade the binding discs, and even snap in a variety accessories.
- Building a campaign. So let’s say you’re planning a campaign that will last 100 hours of play – roughly 25 4-hour games. You should be able to plan the whole campaign in 25 hours so you’ll probably need as much as a few weeks of preparation in your spare time – or 1 week-end if you’re really pumped up.
What is too much time? In my opinion anything over 1 hour of prep time for 4 hours of play is unnecessary but you can spend as much time as you want creating and writing – I wish I could.
Expy the dragon says:
Always wear a helmet when
building a campaign.

(to get pumped up, you can browse this collection of gaming motivational posters)
The objective of the Instant Campaign Builder is to give you the necessary tools to keep that prep-time to play-time ratio under 1 to 4.
The prerequisites
As long as you’re not Dming your first game ever, I think this project will help you. If you’re just undertaking the Dungeon Master profession, I think you would be better served by using a published campaign setting, or at least a published adventure to get your feet wet, see what your players like and what your strengths and weaknesses are as a dungeon master.
