West Marches

West Marches games are typically run as “drop-in/drop-out” campaigns, where a pool of players hop into sessions as they are available or as sessions align with their schedules. These games focus on a player-led story and exploration, with each session acting as a self contained adventure. Players can experience a variety of stories with a rotating cast within an overarching campaign.
