Calling it a "Campaign Saga" could be a winner.

We're going with Campaign Saga. Expect an announcement soon. Thanks for all the suggestions!

You're welcome.

Just a heads up. Sounds similar to a project I've had in the pipeline since last spring. Not that it will matter since they're different types of products, yours being an adventure string and mine being a full ruleset.

/me getting all embarrassed and flustered, like Woody Allen.

However, I'm pretty sure the terminological overlap here is harmless. Two series that describe themselves as a saga might be confusing, but you're using it as a title, and we're using it as a descriptor. Maybe there's some chance for an overlap. I dunno Mark, you interested in seeing what we're doing? I could email you the synopsis.

Campaign Saga, eh? Proper sagas seem to end only when all the main characters get killed off, so it could well be a synonym for Campaign TPK.

I actually got a comment much like that yesterday. A friend who was reviewing the outline said the final adventure looked too hard. I smiled diabolically and said, "It's the final adventure. Who cares if the PCs live? By that point we already have their money."

I mean, it's not like you're going to make a sequel to Saving Private Ryan.

I think so, too. Just thought it better to let you know sooner rather than later.

No, thanks. I'll just wait to see things as they come out, along with the rest of the fans.

Adventures are never "too hard" since 3E, they're only mislabeled.

I will not allocate you to colostomize how I choose to defenestrate the word 'campaign.' Vis a vis, if I were, hypotonically, to speculum as to the orinthol defenestration of the word concurrently under disruption, e.g. the word 'campaign' -- which is annunciated with an inexorable 'g,' much like as unto, quid pro quo and je nai se quois 'champagne' -- I would most proletariately accept your photosynthesis, and agree that an indecipherable crucifixition of a setting is not, ergo, a 'campaign.'

Can I say this made my brain hurt? Ranger, I think I will hire you to be my lawyer if I need one.
