[QUOTE="Ovinomancer, post: 8108747, member: 16814"] Right, but the progression through those quests means that if you're giving out the Chap 2 rumors at level 3, the party mostly likely only has a one or two of those quests still in the queue. That you get them isn't in question, but that you really only have a few at a time, so the fact that you need to complete, what, 4 more to get from level 3 to 4 means that, on average, unless you're holding the rumors till the end of level 3 there's lots of room to have that rumor be the next up in the queue before you get to 4th level (much less 7th). This means that, functionally, you're not providing these rumors at level 3, but maybe at the very tail end of 3, and then you're being careful as to which you're handing out because some are geared for 7th level characters. But, the text just says that you do Chap 2 starting a 4th (a good summation, and clear) and then also that 3rd level players are hearing rumors (ie, getting plot hooks) of these quests. This is poor advice, and easily corrected, and there's more than enough Ten Town adventures to actually wait until 4th to provide the new plot hooks and not have it seem jarring at all. [/QUOTE]
