It’s all about subterranean locations in this week’s episode of the It’s A Mimic! podcast, as the panel of Dungeon Masters discuss what makes a dungeon a dungeon, and how to properly design one. One of the lynchpins of Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition, the dungeon has some must haves and some faux pas, and the DM’s discuss what these are, as well as how players should go about exploring, fighting, and role playing in these infamous locations.
SUMMARY: On of the biggest tropes in Dungeons & Dragons is players fighting their way through the first half of the title, but how boring and how difficult should these areas be? Terry discusses the use of some helpful mundane items, Dan gripes about the issue with Mega Dungeons, and Adam encourages players to get tricky with a certain tool proficiency. From rests and role playing to puzzles and pacing, this episode covers the ins and outs and unders of D&D’s most classic adventure type.

Now then here is a trick for marching order when you are using minis: you can glue the mini onto the plastic that is part of the blister pack in order to make a base so the figure stands up. its clear so it doesn't block whatever you are setting the figure on. Now then make it big enough to hold some other figures and now you have your marching order for everyone to see and it moves the whole group at the same time. Makes life less difficult.

One of the things i found i wouldn't like about 5e is if the only way to make traps is the rule of you must be proficient in thieves tools to set traps. Complex traps (like a crossbow trap) sure that could need special tools but simple things like a stack of rocks or a trip rope might require little more than imagination.
