I try to an "episode" worth of content, or an "act" of a movie. But that can really be tricky. Some nights we only get a few major scenes done in 4 hours. 5th edition certainly has sped up gameplay, though. Our sessions moved much more slowly back in 4e.Regarding Coulson and May, I'd argue they both developed a lot over the series as well. My partner tells me that she feels that Coulson is fundamentally different from the person he was in Iron Man and through Phase 1 by the time of Season 5 (to her disgruntlement). I'd say one way we can examine his development is from Captain Marvel to the S4 flashbacks he has with May to then all the events of Phase 1 and then the show. I mean, this is the every-man MiB agent who dies, is resurrected due to his value as the heart binding the Avengers together, get to put together his own team/family of agents, grows into the shoes of Fury, gets his hand cut off and replaces it with a robot one that can generate an energy shield projection that looks a bit like Cap's shield but with the Shield logo, is set back to a normal agent role because he can't be the face of the organization as he's supposed to be dead, reclaims the leadership, becomes Ghost Rider for a bit, learns how to survive in a post-apocalyptic world and makes his way back to our world in time to die again and come to peace with it but not before facing his own demons, only to come back to life multiple times (first as a possessed recreation from Hell, then as a freakin' robot and a man in a TV and another robot) with super strength.May starts the series with more blackbelts than Natasha Romanoff ("she's a friend"), but further grows through the series, too. By the end of the series, she's gone from being a closed off cold wall of an agent who has sealed her anger and feelings as a coping mechanism to beng an empath and teacher at Coulson Academy. Along the way she's had to overcome her demons, see her ex-husband come back into her life only to transform into her worst nightmare and defeat him - at great cost - and even learn how to fly spaceships through a post-apocalyptic asteroid field (she's an expert airplane/quinjet pilot but flying in space is a different matter altogether).</blockquote>
