My group is large,(7 people) as such I am increasing the difficulty of the encounters they face. However I am having a hard time what level they should begin some ready made adventures as its not as easy to calculate. For example if in the Tales of the Yawning portal "Against the giants" Is a level 11 adventure for 4 adventurers what equivalent would that be for 7 players? Is there a calculation that can be done for adventures like encouters CR?
Same level range, but you have to adjust the encounters slightly to make up for the extra players. I use an Encounter Calculator when I need to adjust things ahead of time. Otherwise, I just toss in an extra monster or two of the sort in the encounter and see what happens.
