[QUOTE="Whizbang Dustyboots, post: 9715665, member: 11760"] Yes to all of this. As Gary Gygax said, it's all about good timekeeping. My play by post campaign (continuously going since 2006, babeeee) has a wiki with a timeline that not only includes campaign background, but where each group is and what they're doing. Sometimes adventures have them out of synch, accidentally or purposefully, but the can and do cross over, most typically with the NPC cast from one campaign showing up in another branch periodically. I'm running a side campaign of Empire of the Ghouls alongside my main campaign, and both groups are in Ptolus and the stuff they're getting up to is already showing up in the local newspapers. So when the PCs want to see what the general public and Ptolus' journalists know what's going on, they have to read past news related to the other group. For live games, I am alternating a 2024 Radiant Citadel campaign with a Shadowdark campaign. No crossover there. Once the Radiant Citadel campaign wraps, I anticipate doing a Witchlight campaign. After the Shadowdark campaign wraps, I anticipate doing either a Mothership or Pirate Borg campaign. [/QUOTE]
