I haven't run my first session yet. Well, I did between me and another friend for the dragon dungeon, but we both died on the first encounter. It was just a small test run. I was just following him around. My friend had 20ac but the goblins critted twice in a row haha.
Anyways, I have a good grasp of the rules (bb) and generally feel comfortably ready as a gm. However, I cannot for the life of me understand how to manage equipment in creating characters. Do gms keep track of food, water, storage capabilities? Also, I noticed key items like grappling hook and ropes; they can be used to easily bypass obstacles in the dragon dungeon and others. How technical should I get with equipment sans weps and armors?
