Mine was a battle against a rival gang (we are working with them for backstory reasons), they had a manticore and we are level 3 so it was intense. Most of us finished with 2 or so hp! But looking forward to finally be level 4 after a year.

Went pretty damn good, I think.

It was the first session of a new campaign where I needed to rely on my world building and prep work and just improvise to get the party where they wanted to go.

They had just been given their Big Epic Quest, and had no idea where to start. 45 minutes of rp-talk between themselves and sharing bits and pieces of their characters and they figured out their next 3 places to go to learn more about the World Ending Threat.

It couldn't have gone better honestly. Super glad that my prep work payed off. After my last campaign I took a lonf break to kinda reflect on what went wrong and how I could change my thought processes and approach to create a better experience, and so far it's working!
