That is just not true. People may have moved. Someone else may have used a spell. Another spell may have reduced its number of available rounds. Conditions may have expired. It is extremely rare for the state of play to exactly the same at the end of a round as it was at the start, even if...

That is kind of the long way around, isn't it? "We recommend starting at 3rd level for seasoned players" is not really the same thing as "We DO NOT recommend starting at level 1 for seasoned players." But, yes, it is semantics and interpretation.

I voted No simply because I do not think 5.5 is an upgrade. At best, it is annoying in its small changes. At worst, it actively messed some things up. Sure, the MM is marginally better than the 2014 MM, but even then you have a TON of better MM to choose from.

Yeah, I literally said that backwords. I even contradicted myself a couple posts later. Oops.

You Said and then immediately changed the goal posts to "teens and 20 somethings."

I think that is overstating it. The PHB says "typically adventurers start at level 1" but does acknowledge that the GM may start the campaign higher. What makes you think it "does not recommend" starting at 1st level?

Worked fine for me since it was not a solo encounter.

(Note: this is a 5E question broadly and I don't think 5.0 vs 5.5 really matters here) When you start a new campaign, do you usually start at level 1? Why or why not? If not, what level do you usually start at? This question is only really applicable to the start of a new campaign. If you are...

At least insofar as the adventures go, the back catalog is still the catalog. So maybe this will be a capstone style adventure. If so, it would still be useful for it to have explicit guidance on how to weave foreshadowing into whatever adventure you run before it. "Replace the lieutenant with...

It occurs to me that there is another explanation: Deadfall, as an "adventure expansion" might not be a traditional single adventure with a through plot. it might be a book more similar to Savage Worlds "plot point campaigns" that presents a situation and gives you locations and statblocks for...

What CR is a lich?

If the offense fails to advance the ball in a (american) football game, did nothing happen?

I mean, Gunn runs the movie DC universe at this point, so you are probably out of luck. I will be very interested to know what the Corps actually is in this thing. Superman did not tell us anything, really -- it just gave us Guy as a member of the Justice Gang. It suggests that the Corps is...

The nefelsheen is an appropriate boss for 11th level characters (I just used one recently) so my guess is the adventure tops out there abouts.

I don't think there is really a standard definition. I call Lord of the Rings high magic because despite it being rare from the perspective of the protagonists, it is powerful. Demigods fight in the depth while armies of tree people assault impossible wizard towers , even as wraiths fly into...

Why not this thread? It's obviously relevant.

Was Planescape or Spelljammer or Dragonlance a "big adventure?" My point is the definition has certainly shifted. That the Thay adventure is not a $60 adventure doesn't mean that it isn't THIS YEAR'S "big adventure."

I don't think it will be low level. I think it will be Tier 2 because it's purported length suggests a single Tier, we just had a high level campaign adventure, and Tier 2 is by far the most popular and playable Tier.

Dark.Sun may still happen this year, but a reissue old DL1-14? Pure fantasy.

How many pages would it have to be to be a "big adventure"? How many levels? How many discrete zones or bad guys? Is your only metric what has come before, or do you have some sort of broad definition?
