That is the Avernus follow up?

Sometimes these arguments feel like folks have set their positions and then work toward defending those positions regardless of anything else. I think it is clear that WotC could provide more support for higher level play than they do. But it also clear that they do not provide NO support for...

I think if there was really cool content at those levels, people would engage it. Remember that a campaign doesn't have to "get to" high level -- you can start there.

My 2024 campaign is very intentionally moving quickly toward high level play. We started at 3rd but every few sessions we level up just so we can get to those levels with some context and player familiarity with abilities. I ran a super successful high level con game, so I am not worried about...

Me too. I really want to know what Kelsey sees a city campaign in Shadowdark looking like.

Do you have any that you would recommend?

The mini adventure/outline thing is one of the elements I like from 2024. It feels closer to what GMs actually need, rather than 150 page campaign length adventures.

This is kind of a chicken and egg question, though, isn't it? If high level stuff is rare and often bad when it does get published, of course people who play at high levels are going to have to home brew.

Out of curiosity, what do the short adventures look like? What level ranges? How deeply tied to the Realms?

I actually think the D&D 2024 short adventure outline format would be better for high level support content. By those levels, there is so much happening and so that has happened in the campaign, it is impossible to write a "generic" adventure. But you can present a scenario, a villain and a...

Both time the adventures were just bad. Coincidence?

I realized it might have seemed like I was challenging, when I was actually being curious.

So if they won't combat it, what purpose does it serve?

Is that usable, though? Does it count as "generic" if I have to.ignore and/or rewrite the lore. Why shouldn't I just start from first principles, rather than have to convert lore?

Thank you for the detailed explanation.

I always find it interesting how much folks lean into old adventures with Shadowdark. That's great, I guess, but never once have I wanted to use the game for that. I much prefer the style of adventures we see in the Cursed Scrolls.

Does anyone have info on the Golden Vault anthology off hand? Where does that stop? And am I missing an Anthology (besides Yawning Portal)?

The name of the game is Dungeons and Dragons. personally, as a GM I am a fan of both: I love little tombs and ancient ruins and weird science fantasy laboratories, so my campaigns are chock full of dungeons; I also adore dragons, especially city busters and malevolent manipulators. So in my...

It is 16th.

Candlekeep goes up to 16th and I am pretty sure there are just as high or higher level ones in the others.
