As comprehensive as this guide is, it didn't help me actually make sense of this module and clearly state what work I had to put in myself to make it run smoothly. I was a very novice DM when I tried my hand at Princes of the Apocalypse, to be honest, so this guide might actually be more useful to advanced Dungeon Masters who know what's what. But for a novice DM, this guide did not guide me to a good experience, and I had to quit this campaign a dozen sessions in because it was terrible.
