The episode ends with a very intense adventure, usually with a very long and hard combat (climax and stuff) and then the story is retaken a few weeks/months later, where characters have been resting, doing other stuff, etc. (they tell me what have they been doing). Each episode lasts a variable amount of seasons, but I like to end the first episode at level 6, second at 9-10 and third at 13-14, when the campaign usually ends. I could probably do the same without splitting the campaign, but well, it's my style, giving it a cinematographical touch.In my current Eberron campaign, the first episode ended with a battle against a renegade high officer of the Breland forces (inspired in General Hummel, from The Rock). They were expecting a hard battle, with the officer retreating in the very last moment, opening the second episode with the pursue, but they just killed him and the second episode, which we just started, is about three sons of the officer seeking revenge, while the PCs are investigating the real causes that lead this successful officer to become a renegade terrorist.</blockquote>
