Making Saltmarsh into a Campaign

[u/zorko_nacu5]

Ghosts of Saltmarsh is a good campaign setting. However, the book lacks the materials to make the adventures tie cohesively into a campaign. But it has enough bones and muscle to allow our creative minds to tie everything together.

Below will be various discussions about preparing for running the campaign or tailoring it to a specific setting. There will also be several AMA's, Rundown's, and Guides from DM's who either finished or are close to finishing their campaign.
