Hi all,<br>
THe idea for the one-offs would include pregenerated characters as was done for the Fantasy Craft one-off recently. I agree though judging how much stuff to put in an adventure to fit one session exactly is difficult. With the FC game I ran a smidge too short. Maybe a back-up campaign is the way to go it would have to episodic though.<br>
