Dawnsbury Days: put your party ideas into battle

Dawnsbury Days

Build a party idea, then see it in a fight. Dawnsbury Days finds its appeal in that cycle. Reviews appreciate reaching combat promptly rather than getting bogged down in preparation.

When a party idea does not fit, experimentation can become the next pleasure. Reviews describe feeling free to try other classes because they could rebuild their characters.

What makes it fun

  1. Plan how to spend your actions

    PF2E combat lets you spend actions on movement, attacks, and spells. Each turn asks you to decide whether to press an attack or change position.

  2. Retrain the party and try again

    You can retrain party members into different classes without restarting the adventure. Then you can see how the new lineup performs in combat.

  3. Take your party into the next fight

    After choosing your party's classes and gear, you move through a brief conversation into combat. Each encounter lets you see how the current lineup works.
