I have modified Clam Island and Frostglade Tundra projects so that only "Basic rules" document is required to run it. I had to cut off some content that was included in books other than basic rules.
I got a message about Frostglade Tundra campaign so I will post what I answered.
First encounter, Combat
Environment: Tundra, snow
2 x Giant Weasel (Challenge 1/8, 25 XP)
= 50 XP
Challenge rating: 50 x 1,5 = 75
Characters arrive to the camp.
Second encounter, Combat
Environment: Tundra, frozen lake, campfire
2 x Kobold, melee (Challenge 1/8, 25 XP)
= 50 XP
Challenge rating: 50 x 1,5 = 75
Third encounter, Combat
Environment: Tundra, frozen lake, campfire
1 x Kobold, melee (Challenge 1/8, 25 XP)
1 x Kobold, ranged (Challenge 1/8, 25 XP)
= 50 XP
Challenge rating: 50 x 1,5 = 75
For third encounter use same environment as in second encounter.
Fourth encounter, Combat
Environment: Tundra, snow
1 x Wolf (Challenge 1/4, 50 XP)
= 50 XP
Challenge rating: 50 x 1 = 50
Total XP:
4 x Kobold (Challenge 1/8, 25 XP) = 100 XP
2 x Giant Weasel (Challenge 1/8, 25 XP) = 50 XP
1 x Wolf (Challenge 1/4, 50 XP) = 50 XP
= 200 XP
Reward:
50 x Gold coin (50 gp)
Hi. In this example:
200 XP for two characters / 100 XP per character
50 Gold coins for two characters / 25 gold coins per character
From page 2/28 of Frostglade Tundra:
- Combat encounters are designed and written for two characters. XP thresholds are scaled between "easy" and "medium" difficulty on levels 1-3. On level 4 XP thresholds are scaled between "medium" and "hard".
- All rewards are scaled for two characters. For example if reward is 10 gold coins it is 5 gold coins per character.
If you are going to have three players give 100 XP per character. (=300 XP)
If you are going to have three players give 25 gold coins per character. (= 75 gold coins)
You need to scale each combat encounter if you have 3 or more players.
If you have 3 players you can use more monsters of same type. In most cases if there are two wolves / goblins you can use three instead if you have 3 players.
I can add XP tables for Frostglade Tundra for more players. Do you have 3 or more players?
If you have more questions I will gladly answer. Keep me informed how your playthrough of campaign is progressing.
Hi. I have created second location-based campaign, Frostglade Tundra: https://homebrewery.naturalcrit.com/share/SyZ_4eEyKE
