Some folks have messaged me about some conversion questions and I decided to just put it on the thread.

How long the AP takes within this 5E format depends on how RP heavy or light your group is as well as how many players you have at your table.

I have 6 players in my group and designed the encounters to challenge that power level. Our RotRL campaign is currently on book 5 in the middle of Runeforge and we've been playing this campaign for over 2 years now and RPing on a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being the heaviest) was at 8.5.

This is how I mapped out level progression.

Burnt Offerings: Levels 1-4 (should gain 4th level getting through the second lower level of Thistletop)
The Skinsaw Murders: Levels 4-8
Hook Mountain Massacre: Levels 8-11
Fortress of the Stone Giants: Levels 12-13
Sins of the Saviors: Levels 13-15 or 16 (should be 14th level after the Xalasia encounter)
Spires of Xin Shalast: Levels 16 to ?

So essentially I leveled them up quicker at lower levels and slower at higher levels. I personally wanted to experience what high level game play was like in 5E. If you don't wanna go that high, I recommend scaling it back some.

Hope this helps!

William-

Another DM interested in your conversion Dropbox for my game. Finishing up the skinsaw murders and looking to roll Hook Mountain into 5e for my players. Mostly since I now play in a Homebrew 5e game weekly, I'm much more comfortable in that system. Just don't want to start over with a new 5e campaign after investing so much time and money into RoTRL.
