The Admiral is a great DM. He goes the extra mile to ensure a fun and rewarding play experience. He has a very good working knowledge of the rules, but at the same time allows for creativity from the players. Every session is one of the biggest highlights of my week. Maps, visual aids, music, voices, and custom macros for each character to streamline combat and ability checks are some of the great features of his sessions, and he's open to players of all skill levels! I could go on, but I'll end with this: If you are looking for a fantastic TTRPG experience, you've found one with Admiral Adventures. I can't recommend him enough!
The Admiral (Brody) is very entertaining with every campaign I am involved with (3) along with giving detailed explanations for rules and situations! Overall Brody has made my experience playing D&D5E very enjoyable along with creating a sense of belonging with the other party members, not to mention graphics, maps, audio and visual effects which are truly dynamic!
The Admiral is an EXCELLENT DM! He has a Vast amount of visual aids, music, and sound bytes to make you feel as if you are actually there. He is awesome at roleplay, using various voices and personalities as he interacts with the party; bringing vitality to the story line. In combat and in how the groups are run, his military background shows well, its strategic and challenging, but not too mind melting; Giving backing to how fluid The Admiral's play style is. He really is the DM for you that listens to you
