AP's

[tony gent]

Just a quick question how meny characters are the AP's normally designed for ?
Is it 4 or more than that

[Kyonko]

I believe the answer back when the APs were first introduced was four player characters at fifth teen buy point. Just know that even with a party of seven PCs at thirty buy point, there will be near total party wipe areas.

All of the published adventure material, with the noted exception of Rise of the Runelords AE, assumes a party of four with a fifteen point build using the medium XP advancement track. RotRL assumes the fast XP track but otherwise the same build.

What the others said.
Keep in mind that the medium experience track may not cut it for the APs made for 3.5.
