[QUOTE="jodyjohnson, post: 6315329, member: 5590"] As far as Story Arcs go, having the next one done, 2 more by the end of the year, and 1 in development is just standard lead time. Fall/Winter arc - Tyranny of Dragons lasting August through February/March (2 encounters seasons plus the convention schedule given where Expeditions adventures tied to the arc premiere). Tyranny is 2 printed adventures which are the basis for home and Encounters play. An Epic at Gen Con. And roughly 10 Expedition adventures premiering at the Con list he Tweeted. The next one that is done is the Spring/Summer arc - [I]Unknown[/I] with an Epic at ?Pax East? and another set of Expeditions releasing at a selection of spring/summer cons. The Fall/Winter story being the big one and the Spring summer one being smaller in a Tick/Tock arrangement. If the big story is 2 adventures (Levels 1-8 and 9-15), 1 epic (GenCon only), 10 expeditions lasting from August to March (the Expeditions open one month after the premiere with the last Expedition con being GottaCon in late February - so open in March) then the Spring Summer arc really only has April to July so we get say 1 print adventure (Levels 1-10), maybe 5 Expeditions and an Epic at Pax East in April. Gen Con launches the next big arc. Which according to Mike should be set by the end of the year. For many groups the Fall/Winter arc will be big enough to last the whole year, so the Spring/Summer arc is a chance to do the smaller and maybe less Realmsy arc but probably not until 2016. Regarding a specific weekly Encounters schedule I expect gaps where stores can fill in with Expeditions events or finish up the modules. Because it may take a while to run 10 Expeditions modules in 8 months for the Fall/Winter arc. [/QUOTE]
