[QUOTE="akr71, post: 7397203, member: 6801213"] As [MENTION=27385]aco175[/MENTION] said, some definite boundaries for new players so that they are not paralyzed by too many options. LMoP is great, but 2 of your players have played it and it is definitely not 1-shot material. The old tropes work well for new players. My go to is the characters are a bunch of strangers who just happen to be at a roadside inn at the same time. Something attacks and the innkeeper calls out for help "Are there no heroes here to protect the innocent?!" Usually, its a bunch of giant rats in the cellar - the inn was built on the ruins of something far older and the rats tunneled up from there. Once the rats have been dealt with the adventurers might ponder what secrets and treasures lurk below. The innkeeper fears for what else might be under the inn and will pay for the adventurers to investigate. What pushed the rats out of their usual den? What made them grow so large? Google will easily find you maps of an inn, a cellar and a dungeon. [/QUOTE]
