[QUOTE="Ilbranteloth, post: 7146557, member: 6778044"] Well, it depends on what you consider your original campaign. I started my Forgotten Realms campaign shortly after the setting was released. I continued through 3.5e, a smidge into 4e, Next/5e, and now a modified 5e to bring it back to something more closely resembling AD&D/2e. None of the same players, but the campaign stories and characters (who become NPCs) continue from that time. Some of the characters were from earlier Greyhawk campaigns and transplanted when we shifted to Forgotten Realms. As far as rules go, back in 1e we incorporated a lot from Dragon magazine, and even third party stuff, so it's always been a modified ruleset, whatever the base edition. So as far as I'm concerned, it's still the same campaign, with characters, NPCs, and events all part of the current lore (and in some cases actually still in the campaign). The 100 year jump for 4e had a big impact on what we were doing as well, and in the end we decided that when the next group of characters were created we would make the jump to the 5e timetable. But none of the players that started that campaign are still around. I couldn't begin to tell you how many sessions. Back in the day it was often 2 or 3 sessions a week, and I might actually be doing that again in the near future as a public campaign that is tied into the home campaign. We'll see. [/QUOTE]
