The adventures book is actually bigger than I thought it would be.

That is 480 pages total. That seems pretty meaty. How big was SCAG? Less then just the Heroes book I think.

SCAG is 159 pages all told.

Tge Adventures book has a big Bestiary with 40 stat blocks, a detailed Level 1-3 Adventure, 50 (!) quick prep Adventures in the style of the 2024 DMG glgrom Level 1-15, and 5 30-40 pages gazateers.

I think they break down Elminster and Drizzt. By the end I hear that both are sobbing in their bedsheets.

I’m not saying the 5 mini settings won’t be touched on in the regional writeups. I’m saying the adventures aren’t tied to those regions, but the mini settings themselves from the DM book.

Chapters 2-6 of the book are the mini settings, with Baldur’s Gate being the 6th chapter, and chapter 7 is the intro adventure for levels 1-3.

One of the one-page adventures we got to briefly see was the Blood Night adventure they mentioned in the Game Informer write up. That adventure is on page 223, and it’s part of Chapter 6 aka Baldur’s Gate.

So the 50+ adventures are in the chapters with the mini settings. They are tied to those, not the overall regions. The backgrounds are tied to the regions.

So, this information seems to give a really solid idea of the structure of the Adventures Guide.
