[QUOTE="Sadras, post: 7503704, member: 6688277"] Over the weekend we began chapter 3 of STK. I had fleshed out 15-16 days worth of travel since the players had told me which direction they were heading in (Goldenfields to Everlund). It took me 4 hours of prep work to read through the relevant material, select and familiarise myself with the monsters/NPCs and their tactics as well as make notes. Using the weather chart in the DMG, the detailed information on the various areas and creatures provided in the AP as well as my own creativity, I found it surprisingly easy to put together an interesting session which was riddled with various lore tidbits, interesting combat and social encounters, weather hazards, and mysteries, all within an exploration-based session. I was amazed at how much ground we were able to cover in the 5 hours. It has certainly been the most enjoyable session in the AP for us thus far - with the players closely tracking their progress on the map and having to negotiate with each other on the numerous decision points along the way. The party only got as far as Ostolin's Hold but it was still very impressive. I'm finding WotC AP material very inspiring. EDIT: Have the burgomeister in Womford keep a journal of the attacks recording dates, if and how bodies were found, which violent incident sparked the baring of boors and closing of shutters...etc [/QUOTE]
