[QUOTE="LordEntrails, post: 7178743, member: 6804070"] This doesn't make it a "fake sandbox", this makes it a "real sandbox" if you can face an opponent that is too tough for the party. So, I get it, people want things simple. And they want a purchased adventure to "just work" without them doing anything. But the only way to do with an adventure that covers 10 to 15 levels is to make the adventure a railroad. Personally, I think single products that try to cover an entire campaign are extremely difficult to make/design. Heck, trying to publish a path in any many to cover an entire campaign is tough. DM's have to realize that no published product is going to be able to run any group through an entire campaign without the DM making adjustments. (Unless it's a flat out railroad). Using milestone leveling is the least "evil/bad/artificial/what-ever-you-want-to-call-it" means of creating a published campaign.
