My Saturday gaming is likely to remain fairly similar to how it has been the last few years, except I’m probably going to drop the late-evening AD&D/Cthulhu/Whatever role-playing for some board-gaming – at least in the early part of the year.
I’m not entirely sure which weeks we’ll miss over Christmas, but at present the schedule looks something like this:
Saturday 20th December – D&D Expeditions – DDEX1-6 The Scroll Thief
Saturday 27th December – Board gaming
Saturday 3rd January – D&D Expeditions – DDEX1-7 Drums in the Marsh
Saturday 10th January – Board gaming
Saturday 17th January – D&D Expeditions – DDEX1-8 Tales Trees Tell
Saturday 24th January – Board gaming (if people aren’t away)
Saturday 31st January – D&D Expeditions – DDEX1-9 Outlaws of the Iron Route
Saturday 7th February – Board gaming
Saturday 14th February – D&D Expeditions – DDEX1-10 Tyranny in Phlan (levels 5-10)
Saturday 21st February – Board gaming
That brings us to Sat 28th, which is one day before DDEX1-11 becomes legal for store play…
do you have enough time to finish one Expedition scenario in one session? i needed 3 sessions to finish The courting of fire. Each session was 3 hours..and i only added one encounter. The group has 2-3 short rest and one long rest outside the Temple of the scale…
In general, I can complete one of these scenarios in about 3 hours. Some take a little more. I’ve very good at running combat quickly, and we tend to concentrate more on plot than “characterization” role-playing
