This is part of what led to adventures you can run within the DMG itself – a first for D&D Dungeon Master’s Guides.

“We had a constant goal in mind of making sure that everything in the book is useful, that all the advice is tested, tried and true, approved by local DMs,” Wyatt continues. “I’m always saddened to hear people talking about not having read the DMG or not really knowing what’s in it, and hopefully just the organization will make that problem go away to some extent – it’s easier to find what you’re looking for.

The new DMG will arrive on November 12, and it’s currently$39.99 at Miniature Marketinstead of $50. Meanwhile, those in the UK can pick it up for£28.99 via Magic Madhouserather than the usual £40.
