[QUOTE="Animal, post: 4622379, member: 40328"] i've played a few epic modules and i must say that most of them i didn't like at all. it was mostly the same as any other game but we had bloated charsheets and had to battle megademons and demigods. it was kinda crpg'ish and got old fast. although one epic game i liked a lot. it was more focused on roleplay and actually FELT epic. i was a legendary dwarven king and other guys were also powerful and meaningful global figures, like a demon prince or old god's avatar. of course we had to battle megademons (and each other) a few times but what i enjoyed most was actually roleplaying a king. making alliances, moving armies, inspiring regular soldiers and leading the attacks. when i crossed my blades with a demon prince in the midst of the battlefield with both dwarven and drow armies staring at our epic battle in awe it was one of the most exciting moments in my gaming experience. what i mean to say is that you won't make players feel that their characters hit epic levels just by increasing their opponents' CR to 25+. you have to actually make PCs kings, saints, demigods, legendary archmages. this is what epic is about.
