[QUOTE="THEMNGMNT, post: 8545229, member: 6809274"] As others have noted, Dragon Heist can be made into a great campaign -- but it has to be modified. You can't play it straight out of the book. The Alexandrian Remix (google it) is probably the best online resource for how to modify the adventure. I'm running a remixed Dragon Heist right now and loving it. Building on what Retreater said, Ptolus is the king of urban campaign settings. Regarding adventures, there are about 5 or 6 published adventures -- certainly enough to cobble together a campaign. The best of them is The Banewarrens. In the adventure, multiple evil factions discover and explore a lost dungeon that's a vault for evil artifacts -- and the players have to stop them. It's a perfect blend of dungeon crawl and urban adventure. I've been wanting to run the Banewarrens for years -- and now I finally am. We're 13 sessions in. It's going great so far. (Note that Banewarrens was originally designed for 4th - 10th level characters in 3E, but it's easy to convert to 5E and even scale it down to 1st level characters.) I'll also put in a vote for Shackled City. I've not played it, but it I own the hardcover and it has some great stuff. Expedition to the Ruins of Greyhawk from 3E has some good stuff for urban campaigns, and could be paired well with the Age of Worms adventure path. [/QUOTE]
