[QUOTE="Herremann the Wise, post: 5613438, member: 11300"] I'm running a Kingmaker Campaign where the focus is on them carving out a chunck of land out of the wilderness and turning it into something special. I want this to be a generational thing with the campaign run over about fifty years in campaign time. The current PCs will develop, a new generation will come along (hopefully related to the former) and the story arc I envisage will be complete. For this to happen, I really did not want 3e/4e/PF's rapidfire leveling frequency so I followed the PF rules and took the progression down to "slow". It allows me to get twice the adventure in (I've mixed in a lot of other stuff so far), and the room (and campaign time) to really develop some plots. It gives room so that the players can enjoy each step along the way before being rushed into the next suite of abilities. I think meshing the leveling progression with this particular campaign has been a big part of its success for our group (even though a couple of players were iffy to begin with). I think we've logged up about sixty hours and the group have just achieved level three - so yeah... it's somewhat slow. :D Best Regards Herremann the Wise [/QUOTE]
