[QUOTE="Nemesis Destiny, post: 5706262, member: 98255"] My group tends to run several campaigns concurrently, switching DMs whenever we feel it is a good time. We probably get 40 sessions per year, playing weekly with cancellations, schedule conflicts, vacation, illnesses, etc. My most recent arc I started in April or late March of this year and the characters are on the cusp of 4th level. At that rate (we skipped all of August), it will take 5-6 years to hit 30. Fortunately, the arc is designed to end around the end of Heroic. It was actually just a spin-off idea to help a subplot in my wife's campaign that has been running since the late 1990s (2e). The highest level character in that particular game is, I think 15th level, and hasn't been played since midway through 3rd edition. 2e had a really slow advancement curve beyond the single-digits though, so that's to be expected. I ran a 3.x game that took the characters from 1-18th and that took me about 3 years at the same schedule. If anything, I'd have expected 4e to go through the levels quicker. Hm. I guess we probably spend more time on RP and less on combat & levelling now... [/QUOTE]
