[QUOTE="smerwin29, post: 6540913, member: 15050"] I will build upon Pedr's great explanation of Encounters to talk about Expeditions adventures, in case you are curious. Expeditions are shorter adventures than the big "storyline adventures" (being Hoard of the Dragon Queen this season and Princes of Elemental Evil next season). Most currently available Expeditions adventures demand about 4 hours of playtime (roughly). The first Expeditions adventure for the Tyranny of Dragons season, called Defiance in Phlan, was a series of 5 one-hour adventures. The first Expeditions adventure of the second storyline season will also have this format. Greg Marks, one of the administrators of the Adventurer's League, recently said on Facebook that in the coming season there were going to be Expedition adventures of various lengths: the aforementioned adventure with 5 one-hour mini-adventures, some that run 2 hours, some that run 4 hours, and some that run even longer. (There is a currently available adventure designed to run 8 hours.) The Expedition adventures can only be offered at public locations, like conventions or game stores. There are ways to get them to run at your own local public events even if not sponsored by a convention or store, but to get the tradeable magic item certificates for the players, they have to be sponsored.
