Welcome to THAC0 . . . with Advantage! We’re two friends that have been playing D&D a long time. While we both love lots of other RPGs, we keep needing to hit the reset button to get another chance to conquer D&D.
Not every fantasy adventure story ends with a big fight, but many of them do.

We’re going to talk about what makes a boss battle interesting and challenging and explore ways to use the concept in your games.
