[QUOTE="Negflar2099, post: 7559636, member: 65944"] I'm about to do something crazy. After years of running games for the same group I've slowly (over the course of three interconnected but separate campaigns spanning 5 years, since just before 5e came out officially) guided them all the way to 20th level, and now I'm ready to take the leap and try running my first epic tier game. It's been a crazy ride. Even getting them all the way to 20th level was insane (even using the milestone system and leveling up every few sessions it still took quite a while). I don't know how we've all managed to stay together. Over the course of those years we only lost three players and we gained back one that had moved away. I don't think I have to tell you how unlikely that is. But here we are. For rules I've decided to use the Epic Character rules from the DMsGuild (with levels going all the way up to 30th I think) along with some Epic Monsters I found on this site. I have rules for them to even become true gods, if we ever get there. I'm super excited, but I'm also more than a little freaked. I've never run a game at this high a level before, and I have no idea what to expect. On the one hand I don't want the game to be too different than what they're used to, but on the other if it isn't different in some ways then I think what's the point? They have a good spread of classes too, with a life cleric in the mix, so I know it's going to be hard to really challenge them. In the end I think I can do it, and I'm looking forward to the challenge, but wow. I never thought I'd be here. Thank you all. [/QUOTE]
