Running Elements of Adventure Paths singularly.

[Presto2112]

Has anyone tried running one or two adventures from any of the adventure paths thus far without running the whole adventure path?

Just a cursory glance at some elements of AoW look like there are some elements of it that would fit nicely into my plans, but I don't know how well they would fit into mine, seeing as they are specifically written for another complete train of thought.

Of course, some modifications will be in order, as well as some fresh hooks. I'm just wondering how much work I'm in for, I guess.

There were two adventures late in Age of Worms that I considered running singularly IMC, though I moved away and we ended the campaign before I could. It took tweaking a few monsters and some motivations, but I was planning to us most of it essentially as-is.

Go for it, I say

What you're suggesting should be fairly easy. Paizo changed its policy with the Age of Worms and wrote each separate adventure as a solo adventure too. Don't worry about tying them together as they go in wildly different directions to keep the players guessing as they go down the track. Instead, be wary of any pre-existing allies or other assumptions that were not caught for design as solo adventures. For the most part you should be okay. IIRC, a couple are harder than the rest.
