Sure, that should work. I haven't yet tried that, but I am at my 5 limit. the good thing is that I have a large, sandboxed, campaign setting that can easily accommodate multiple campaigns. I could run several parties and they'd never cross paths.
Did this back in the '80s with my original campaigns. I ran three parties of 4 or 5 along with 2 parties of 2 and a solo player. sometimes had one group hear about another one, or stumble upon a mess they made and get hired to clean it up, or be mistaken for another party. Gave me endless ways to interact and customize things. Had the added bonus of letting me re-use places, NPCs, dungeons, maps, etc. with just enough tweaks to keep it all fresh.
glad I stumbled through this door today as I was just wondering how to handle some expansion...

To clarify: anyone in the campaign with a Master Tier subscription can activate Content Sharing. It doesn't have to be the DM, or even the person who owns the books. Once it's activated, everyone's books get shared with everyone else.

Which is painful if the DM doesn't want you to have access to the campaing sourcebook, but isn't the one who activated it.

The DM can access Content Management and change what sources are available regardless of who activates Content Sharing.
While this doesn't affect character sheet options it can prevent players reading the books (unless they own it also) - reducing metagaming.

put players from two games in one campaign?
