Decide Whether to Start a Second Tabletop Campaign
A new group has offered you a seat, and it sounds brilliant, and you already have a campaign that meets every fortnight. This weighs the real cost, prep, energy, and scheduling, against the specific gain the second game offers, names the way this usually goes wrong, and lands on a straight answer.
