I ran Tyranny as my first campaign, and once it wrapped up I went immediately into Curse.  So I haven't even touched LMoP, PotA, OotA or SKT yet.  Which means WotC has like at least two more books on top of those four to release before I need to select a new AP to run... and that means I'm going to have a pretty wide variety of adventure types and styles to choose from when it comes time.No one's going to get their preferred AP type each and every time.  But chances are pretty good that if you do find at least one to run... another one or two are going to get released in the next year or so that will be a good next one to jump into.  It might not be the direct next one... but you're probably going to have another option sooner rather than later.</blockquote>
