Just a quick question on the D&D Campaigns system. If you have an event with two sessions and play MoH modules in each session I'm assuming that as you don't get the rewards until the session is reported you have to play exactly the same character in the second session that you played in the first.

I.e if I play in EMH-1 in the morning and EMH-2 in the afternoon, my EV will go up once the sessions have been reported but there's no way for me to use any of the gold collected in the EMH-1 to equip my character in EMH-2, right?

If so, isn't that a rather significant limitation? And thinking about it, at a multi-day convention where (if it's GenCon, say) you might play three or even four modules if they're offering a special and a DM's Mark it seems a bit odd (and very artificial) that you don't get to use the rewards - which could include levelling!) at any point during the con.

Have I missed something?

- An adventure can take one or more sessions.
- You can setup an event with one or more sessions.
- A normal adventure only takes one session to be completed.
- You can report only an event when you finish all the sessions.
- A MoH character get his reward when the GM report of the event.

If you setup an event with two sessions to play two MoH adventures you will find the problem that you expose.

The solution:

The next time set two different events in order to get the rewards from the first adventure. Or setup an event with adventures from different campaigns.
