Asking for some advice on how to run a game.

[sarnichaos]

Hi guys
I'm new to this whole Dungeons & Dragons things but I've always wanted to play it.
This steam sale I decided to buy the D&D Essential Bundle together with Dungeon Painter Studio.
And as a simpleton, I have no clue how to put these tools to work. It would be nice to learn some tips & tricks on how to start playing from you guys.

And if it is too simple a question or too foolish in nature, please know that you have my apologies in advance.

Thank you for your time.
