Awarding Downtime Days

[Lance Schantz 455]

I cannot seem to find how much downtime days to award after an adventure anywhere in the book. I can find what you can do with them but not how many your get and how often.

It depends on the adventure's plot. How much do the PCs want vs. how much do events in the world that the GM has planned intercede? Sometimes there will be very little downtime, because you're rushing around pursuing the plot. Others there may be a lot, because you finished one piece and have no deadline to begin the next thing.

I think it's good design to periodically provide some downtime opportunities to regear and retrain, but it depends.

Ok thanks. My group tends to play a West Marches campaign so I guess we will have to make something up.
