D&D 4E your 4E game is set...

[TerraDave]

Mythic/ fantasy real-world geography. The level 15 party is in drow tunnels under the Irish Sea; the new level 2 party has just landed in the new Halfling port village of Ponce, Puerto Rico. (Halfling merchant houses fill the Borgia/ Medici niche, and they are latecomers to the colonization of the Americas; their arrival was made possible after the level 15 party burned the (Drakkoth) Spanish Armada, ending the Drakkoth stranglehold on the strait of Gibraltar).

Ran an altearth D&D game for many, many years. Its where the "Terra" in TerraDave came from.

Somewhere in my sig (bonus) is a link to (part of ) the 3E version of it.

I am running FrogGodGames' Slumbering Tsar in 4e. It's a pathfinder mini-campaign by the old Necromancer Games' guys and it's awesome. It's a nice 4e sandbox with lots of wiggle room and I am having a good time converting it.

I also ran Scales of War up to about 9th level, but the game took a hiatus due to bad schedules and such.

Did a little WotBS online and some Gamma World as well.

In reply to this one the other on PF, I wondered how many would be converting over. And how easy it is?

4E monsters are pretty easy to adjust, any other issues?

Nentir Vale and Darksun a little, by virtue of running some Encounters.

All 'real' games I've been involved with (i.e. campaign games) have been in my homebrewed world of Cydra.

If I remember the couple that I was involved in accurately (Crimson Throne and Runelords), it would involve removal of a fair bit of railroading, leaps of faith, and putting important information into locations where it can be easily found.

My biggest challenges so far are with environmental effects and such. The first part of the campaign is spent in a rather large sandbox (figuratively and literally) and there are some stuff I am making hazards and skill challenges (like bone storms, or surviving an outburst of acid rain).

I have had to convert some typically 3.x/PF solo monster encounters into group encounters but managing the fluff on that isn't difficult.

We're only a few sessions in, and I was thinking of blogging about the conversion experience, so maybe I'll get a quick wordpress site up and go for it.

It is interesting DL/krynn has still to get a single vote after the poll on WOTC's site had a very strong DL result.

Of course I know neither poll has any accuracy at all, but it is interesting.

Where you ask a question has a dramatic effect on the outcome. The same question asked here and on WotC's boards can yield different results.

Oh, and Dragonlance has that single vote now. I mainly play online these days, but I run one 4e DL game and play in another.

Here's running a 4e game in Monte Cook's Ptolus setting, using a mixture of converted Ptolus adventures, Ptolusified 4e material and homebrew stuff.

Ooops -- I accidentally put in for "classic" Realms instead of 4e.

Dragonlance is the only real surprise here. Though I also expected "planar" to do better, given the amount that it is mentioned. This also confirms the strong reception for Darksun.

Question to anyone who reads this: does having something in print or current have any influance on what you are running?

Presumably, darksun would barely register if it wasn't for the official support.

, baby, !

This.

(Or at least it will be once the first adventure is publicly available.)

(But not this)
