[QUOTE="Rel, post: 5540163, member: 99"] Another possibility would be to have the PC's start off as part of a mercenary company that has been hired to "keep the peace" in some newly conquered city. And of course with the regime change there are all kinds of power grabs, great and small, going on as well as possible counter attack by the defeated country or even a third party (like a different nation or group of monsters or whatever). This way each session can be about assembling a "team" to handle whatever problem has cropped up. As the campaign unfolds if you want to have the PC's be a bit more self directed then you can have some of them promoted to officers and assigned their own group of mercs to similarly hold onto another town that has been conquered. The benefit to this setup in my mind is that you have already built in a way to have things progress once you feel like the PC's need a change of scenery. [/QUOTE]
