Campaigns & Campaign Length

From here.

I tend to track my #sessions and run longer campaigns, a couple years is typical.

Some recent campaigns:Loudwater (4e) 2011-2016, 5.5 years, 103 sessions, levels 1-29 & reached 30 at end.Follow on Princes of the Apocalypse campaign (same link) runs monthly and plan to go 36 sessions over 3 years, 2019-2021.
Primeval Thule I have run 27 sessions so far since January 2019, plan to run around 60 sessions over 12 months or so.
Varisia - Runelords of the Shattered Star so far 83 sessions since November 2015, but took a break in 2018 and switched from tabletop to online.Followed on from Curse of the Crimson Throne PF, 34 sessions Jan 2014-Oct 2015.
Nentir Vale 4e campaign 26 sessions 2017-18.
Karameikos Campaign (Classic) 25 months to January 2017.
Southlands Campaign (4e) 20 sessions 2011-12.
Yggsburgh Campaign (1e AD&D) was 45 online sessions. Wilderlands (online5e ) has run a few hundred sessions since 2015.1e Rise of the Runelords was 16 sessions online before TPK.
I used to mostly run 20-35 session campaigns in 3e, but with 5e I find it fits longer campaigns going the full level range.

  1. How many games do you run at one time?? It seems like you're doing 3, which is pretty impressive. And there's some different systems in there.

    1. Hi! I generally have a few going, between 3 and 5 depending on whether stuff on hiatus counts is typical. Currently I'm running Princes of the Apocalypse, Primeval Thule, and Runelords of the Shattered Star. I will add to that Red Hand of Doom in August. I expect RhoD and Thule to end early next year and will begin a new campaign then. I also have requests to resume my Wilderlands campaigns & may do some. :)
