[QUOTE="thom_likes_gaming, post: 6839408, member: 6793109"] As per [URL]http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?476080-Looking-for-mid-level-campaing[/URL], we started the campaign with established characters on level 3. Consequently, the first fight with the bounty hunters was a bit of a push-over. Granted, I was also plagued with horrible dice rolls, while the players kind of breezed through on 18s, 19s and 20s. One of the players played in the last group I had tried to start for WotBS and figured to be a smarty-pants when he placed his wizard at a spot that HE thought was safe from the fire. His face was priceless when Coaltongue's bust came plonking down on the wizards head when the explosions hit. Clearly, I had failed to mention that the last time around. :D The party quickly grew to Torrent and the task of getting the case and ran off to the Depository. After cracking up about "Depository" jokes (they're Brits, don't ask ;) ) for 15 minutes they finally got on with it. I don't actually think they really worked out what Badgerface did with the whole "You need a password to open the case safely!" thing. I suppose I had the gnome explain it to them a bit awkwardly. Well, he was concussed and upset, sue me.. or him, preferably. but they DID understand the case's importance and chased after it. All in all, it was a good start and set them well on track. I noticed that there's one potential problem with the group though: One character rolled ridiculously high on a few stats and plays a half-elf rogue with skill-focus Perception. So he get's such a bonus on his rolls on one of the most regularly used skill that the rest of the group pales somewhat in comparison. I will try and make sure to play on the other character's strenghts in the future. [/QUOTE]
