Game 01: A Night of Blood

So we played our first game this past weekend. I bungled everything, forgetting most of the rules as soon as the game started and we all did so many things wrong. LOL. Despite this, we all had a blast!!

I ran the Night of Blood adventure based on the Actual Play from RPG Quest. I modified the BBG though and it will return later in the campaign - likely when the players have forgotten about it. The Beastmen are the focus bad guys in the short term (and they fear the BBG, so stay away from the Hooded Man Coaching Inn.)

Episode 02 will be the Under the Hill Adventure (based on High Rollers AP) I think, which works out nicely since one of my players rolled Jaime De Sabatine as a contact.

I think I might retire my D&D game and move to this system. It was so fun! And the Spell Casting/Fate system are awesome!

I am planning on running this exact scenario using TOWR as well!

Any advice/suggestion?

I listened to a couple APs podcasts of the scenario, so that might be something you want to do as well. I especially enjoyed https://youtu.be/GWmTYz3mzbo?si=5LawfcKNrrm-LDJB
I also added a carriage chase at the beginning with a herd of Beastmen chasing after them. Depending on how suspicious the players are, there wasn't a lot of combat once inside the inn.
