04-12-06, 04:48 PM This question may be answered elsewhere. If so please send me a link so I can go read. It also has not been the full 21 days for my Herald Level GM clearance, so I cannot get into the ordering screen yet.

It seems that there is one actual module put out a month that is worth 4 points. I understand that you can only play in each module once for the rewards to be recorded. I have also seen this thing called a DM's Mark though. Can a player play in the standard game for that month and a DM's Mark in the same month?

Maybe you guys can clear up what a DM's Mark is to me. What I picture it as is a game that I write as a DM. When I order my adventure for the month, I put down a DM's Mark. I imagine I can do this whenever I want to. That might be where the error is. Is there a limit to how many Marks you can run? Or can you only run one when the RPGA says that one is available.

I also noticed that the new Eberron module is worth 4 points, and that some folks already registered to play it this month. Any other adventures like that?

Thanks for the info

04-12-06, 06:05 PM You can play in as many adventures as you want (4 points of otherwise), but only once for any given module. In addition you cannot play in a module you have already run as a DM.

All RPGA Campaign modules are worth 4 points. These include the Mark of Heroes and Legacy of the Green Regent campaigns. DM's Mark are special modules for the Mark of Heroes campaign in which the DM can run pretty much any adventure he wants and still have it count as a standard Mark of Heroes game. You must still register it like any RPGA session, and send the results shortly after the date the game was scheduled for.

There's nothing preventing you from playing in two Mark of Heroes adventures in the same month, or even the same day, as long as they're different modules. And remember that although two DM's make completely different adventures registered as the April DM's Mark, they still count as one module, so you won't be able to play in both.

Thanks alot. I think that last line is what I was looking for. So I would have to wait until another DM's Mark came out in another month. Even though they are completely different.... they still have the same registration/ordering code (or whatever it is called).

I think most modules are 1 points, some or 2 and rare exceptions are 4 or 8 is more accurate.

Right, it's the "D&D Campaigns" (which is what I suspect Borris meant to type) that are typically worth 4. Most Living Campaign modules are worth 1 or 2.
