[QUOTE="Quickleaf, post: 5947955, member: 20323"] I'd say your best bet would be to focus on a region/kingdom with several highlighted "dungeons" (read: adventure sites). I would get these supplements as the "dungeons": Madness at Gardmoor Abbey, Halls of Undermountain, Neverwinter, Slaying Stone, and whatever other supplements appropriate to your setting. Maybe sit down and think up some potential adventure sites and then dig around in your collection for an approximate fit. IOW do your campaign prep geographically. Be careful about deliberately switching gears from a sandboxy game into a more linear story-driven game. It's fine if that happens naturally and comes from the players, but as a top down DM directive it sounds like a bad idea. I swear by AEG's Ultimate Toolbox as a resource for planning and running an improvisational game where i need to come up with stuff quickly when the players take an unexpected tactic. Ultimate Toolbox has tables for *everything*, and is well worth the cost. [url=http://www.alderac.com/ultimatetoolbox/]Ultimate Toolbox[/url] [/QUOTE]
