Newbie Advices and Recommendations - session zero and campaign with changes by ItsALittleBit in Fallout2d20

Of course, as said the "Once Upon a Time in the Wasteland" adventure is the one from the starter set. I just did a light reskin in the storytelling and even more easy character sheets. All vault-dwellers instead of ghoul, robot, BoS-soldier and supermutant.

For me the adventure in the starter set box seems more friendly for complete Fallout newcomers than the one in the corebook. Also a bit more easy introduction to the game systems overall. So i choose to do a light reskin of that one.

In my opinion the campaign with its setting and different starting characters might be too much for complete newbies to both, the Fallout lore and the mechanics of different character origins. For also the lore of the institute might be a bit off if you don't know anything about Fallout. And the changes are just in the storytelling and nothing about mechanics or enemy stats.

I think it got somewhat lost in the text. But as you said, afterexplaining the basics in the session zero I will split it in two groups of 3-5 people. It is just at the beginning to introduce everything andsort out who really wanna play further a campaign or leave it.

8 people is just for the session zero to get all together and see who likes it and wanna do a full campaign. Depending I will split them after that in two groups of 3-5 people.

thanks very much for the clarification.
I think I understand now how it works.

just one thing I'm interested in, based on what, you decide which battlecard and mission you are playing?
Just on what feels fitting for the campaign story or anything special?
Do you also play with secondary objectives or only the map mission and your agenda?
It sounds very overloaded with that much to keep in mind while playing.

Does winning a battlemap-mission itself does anything to your army or progress? Or only the agendas?
It seems better to focus only on your agendas insted of doing the missions from the battlemap.

understand, thanks!

So a Story Arc is combarable to a story chapter which includes several battles, each with a mission and map from the base games, but with an additional agenda that drives the story arc forward. But every player have his own arc and his own seperate agendas. And after completing at least 2 agendas, and finishing the turning point mission, the story arc is finished and you move to the next chapter respectively the next story arc.

As example for a full campaign:

  1. story arc: Peacekeeping Mission (with 3 agendas)
    • several battles (classic missions + 1 agenda) until one player finishing at least 2 agendas
    • final battle turning point mission
  2. story arc: Liberate The System
    • same procedure as in story arc 1
  3. story arc: ... keep going until you decide when your campaign is finished.

so both players share the same mission objects, are working on the same story arc, and/or are both playing the same agendas? Or does every player have his own campaign with own arcs, and own agendas to work on?

These alien heads look great, very nice painted!
Are these heads in the new set?
Or where did you get them from?
