How to Defend Your Lair
Book •
How to Defend Your Lair by Keith Amman examines how to create lairs and strongholds that logically protect their inhabitants and provide engaging tactical challenges.
The book discusses layout, traps, NPC behaviors, resource distribution, and how defenders employ their environment to their advantage.
It emphasizes narrative coherence so players can deduce and interact with lairs in meaningful ways rather than arbitrary obstacle layouts.
The guidance helps GMs design lairs that reward player investigation and clever play while remaining thematically consistent with the creatures who occupy them.
It complements Amman's broader work on monster tactics and encounter design.
