Good adventure for fresh lvl 1 characters?

[hyena]

Hi all

So a friend of mine shanghaied me into getting FG for his upcoming Savage Worlds campaign, but after watching the tutorial videos and fiddling about with the 5th edition sample campaign I feel an irrestible urge to do some "learning by doing" i.e start up a fresh campaign for my buddies with brand new lvl 1 characters in 5th edition. Looking at the sample campaign it seems balanced for the pregenerated lvl 4 characters. Looks to me that lvl 1s would be massacred in the first room as soon as the Hellhound lets loose with it's firebreath (even the lvl 4s struggled when I testran it solo...)

So any suggestions for an adventure suitable for lvl 1 characters? Not a problem if it needs to be bought :-)

Thanks

PS A list for "must-have" modules beyond those that come with the full version would also be appreciated :-)

A crows rest, Into the Feyweald and the crypt of the sun lord. These are amazing adventures for new players. The only must have really is the players handbook it is very important and speeds up making characters.

Great, thanks, where do I get these adventures? Are they in the FG store? :-)

Crow's Rest Island for 5E isn't in the store (just an oversight I'm sure), get it here: https://adventureaweek.com/shop/5e-a00-crows-rest-island-fantasy-grounds/
It can be ran before A1 Crypt of the Sun Lord: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/store/product.xcp?id=AAWFG5EA01 and the A2 is a good continuance: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/store/product.xcp?id=AAWFG5EA02

Into the Feyweald available here: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/store/product.xcp?id=LG5EITFW

If you look closely on the AAW Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/Adventureaweek/?fref=ts (Hint: in August) there is a code for a free one month subscription to Adventureaweek.com - AAW Games website. This allows you two product downloads per month, which could be the FG versions of A0 and A1 to get you going. Plus the subscription will give you complete access to all of the AAW games scenarios in web viewing format, so you can see which ones you might want to run next! :)

And if you want something longer - and ideal for starting groups and to help ease your GM transition to this new tool - consider Lost Mines of Phandelver.
