In the process of converting Scales of War. I’ll be starting my campaign from Garaitha’s Anvil – the 12th adventure in the series – skipping most of the build-up adventures as I have characters who are coming of Tomb of Annihilation and are level 14. I make extensive use of minions/mooks in my games to bulk up combat encounters, here is an example.
