[QUOTE="CydKnight, post: 7068801, member: 6873462"] I agree. I have done the same thing and picked up OotA after first running LMoP with a bunch of new players and a new DM. After reading it through from cover-to-cover along with two prominent DM's Guides on OotA, I have come to the conclusion that the players simply are not ready. For this reason, I have decided to extend the current LMoP campaign until a time when the players are more comfortable and I feel they are ready to tackle something like OotA. As for me, the DM, I am a nerd of mechanics and lore and have become a student of 5E rules in the last 5 months or so. I feel I can properly prepare and run OotA but I actually embrace all of the prep work that must go into it. However, if you are a new DM and don't understand and embrace that mentality, you will have pain running it. [/QUOTE]
