[QUOTE="RichGreen, post: 476105, member: 2039"] Hi greenslime, Know what you mean about the work involved in linking published adventures together but I still think I save time in the long run. This is even with not realising how much faster level progression would be in 3e, meaning that I had to keep bumping up the levels, hit dice etc on the enemies in the first few adventures I ran. Linking the adventures together has been challenging but fun -- the villains who have survived the different adventures have returned a couple of times, in some cases teamed up with a villain from another previous adventure. I bought RttToE and was going to run it. Then I realised that only playing once per month it might take two years to complete and the players might get bored. Although there are lots of different NPCs to interact with it also seemed like it might descend into a hackfest (like Night Below has a tendency to do). After The Standing Stone, I was going to continue with the WotC adventure path and run Heart of Nightfang Spire but on a second read through wasn't so keen. Some good set pieces, but a bit too much of a dungeon crawl for my taste. As the PCs get high level I'm going to have to write my own stuff because they are starting (at last!) to come up with their own goals and motivations. Cheers Richard [/QUOTE]
