In the case of the AL, there’s even a store and event locator that will help you find where games are being held in your area so you can make plans to sign up and take part. Many players who participate in AL take the same character from group to group, while others form stable campaigns that last for the length of a season. Depending on how you make use of the resources provided you, players can take the same character from group to group since they’ll be kitted out in gear that drops in those AL modules, will be of an appropriate power level, and made using the same rules. The AL has seasons, with new campaigns for players to start and level through.
#ADVENTURERS LEAGUE LOGSHEET LEVELING UP SERIES#
The Adventurer’s League is the one Wizards of the Coast has organized for Dungeons and Dragons, and it consists of an organized set of specific rules (no house rules, so everybody taking part is on the same page) and resources for helping groups find each other, as well as a series of campaign adventures for players and DMs to make use of. Sometimes it’s through online means, sometimes it’s at a convention, sometimes it’s at your friendly local game store. I’ll make sure to list a few other such programs after we get into the basics of what Organized Play is and how it works.īasically, Organized Play is when a gaming entity - whether it’s the company behind said games or just a group of enthusiastic players, or sometimes both - come up with a way for players to meet and play their games. So let’s talk about Organized Play, the Adventurer’s League, and how you can play with complete strangers.įirst off, I should mention that the Adventurer’s League is hardly the only Organized Play for an RPG out there. Especially when we’re slowly crawling out of the last year and change of global pandemic and people are looking to go do things in public again - although I’d personally give it another month or two, because we still have a lot of people not vaccinated yet - the idea of Organized Play might be really appealing to folks who discovered tabletop RPG play via Discord or Roll20 or some other online method. Back when we covered the changes to the Adventurer’s League that came along with Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything, we discussed what the Adventurer’s League is and how it works.
