12 Tips for Running a D&D Module or Pre-Made Adventure

D&D modules and pre-made adventures are great because they do a lot of the work for the dungeon master--adventures, NPCs, villains, maps, etc. However, how exactly does a dungeon master run a module or pre-made Dungeons & Dragons adventure? What are the steps a DM should take to prepare to run a D&D or RPG module? Surely there are helpful tips, tricks, and just general advice for game masters who just picked up a cool new RPG adventure they want to run. (You know, besides the tried and true "just read the entire module a few times" advice, which, by the way, is generally just BAD advice.)

So, in this video I'm going to discribe how I prepare when I'm going to run a D&D module for my players. These are the twelve pieces of advice that I believe will be most helpful for dungeon masters looking to run a pre-made adventure for their Dungeons & Dragons group.
