[QUOTE="The Green Hermit, post: 7886717, member: 6999735"] I came to this thread late, so I'm just going to respond to the posts as they came up, rather than try to sort them into any sort of cohesion. This is what I am worried about. Nevertheless, my kids really, really want to level their characters all the way up, so we are going to attempt Tyranny of Dragons, followed by the Red Pasha, and ultimately descending into hell to slay Tiamet for good. We will see if we make it that far, especially since we are all relatively new to the game and aren't in a situation where we can include "veterans," but that is the plan. I agree that there needs to be at least one published adventure that deals with levels 15-20 -- even if it isn't a true campaign, just a series of adventures. I am doing a ton of "homework" with that campaign as well, but a good part of that is that I am new to the game AND to being a DM. However, I am the only one in my family with the patience to take on the DM job, so if we want to play it, that is what I have to do. I agree. There doesn't have to be even as many campaigns with higher level characters as there are with the lower level characters. There just needs to be SOME. Please. As I am completely new to this game, I use just published adventures. However, I do my homework and tweak them so that they work. Living in a very rural area, being a player while I watch an already accomplished DM is not really a feasible option. If I tried a homebrew campaign right now, it would fail miserably. I think this is what many of us would like. Exactly. My players/kids really want to play at the higher levels so they get all the toys. This is what I am worried about as we are beginning ToD. However, the two supplements I bought to expand the storyline up to Level 20 weren't that expensive and could easily be used at another time. This is what I am hoping for as well. However, it is to be determined as to how well my kids/players delve into the role playing aspect of the game vs. the slash and bash. This and This. How I would do it would be to create several modules over the various tiers that could all be tied together in a coherent story, but could also be pieced together in a way that fit the specific campaign you were in. I would like this as well. Who knows, by the time any of my group's characters will have gotten that strong, maybe they will have been created. [/QUOTE]
