[QUOTE="RodneyThompson, post: 4484876, member: 3594"] I think, as far as Scales of War goes, if your players go through the adventures then they should hit the right levels. I don't know about the authors' experiences on Shackled City/Age of Worms/Savage Tide, but I finished writing a SoW adventure and it was very easy for me to include enough XP in the adventure to make sure that the players get their level-and-a-half, plus a little extra. Now that things like skill challenges and quests have a codified XP amount and can be treated like encounters, it seems like you can get more XP into a single adventure if you want to. If your players start falling behind, you can always fall back on the Side Trek one-session adventure, but make sure it's packed full of XP. If you include a major quest and a complexity 5 skill challenge you end up with two encounters' worth of XP that the PCs can pick up in a relatively short amount of gaming time. [/QUOTE]
