Hello!

I'm curious to know what rank my posse should be at before beginning the following adventures:

Guess who's coming to Donner
Don't drink the water
The Flood
The Lost Sons
Murder on the Hellstromme express

[ValhallaGH]

In order:
Any.
Any, but Seasoned or better given the advice on working it into the Flood.
Novice.
Novice.
Novice.

Also curious:

What rank should the posse be before entering these areas.

The Great Northwest
The Weird White North

Yeah, the official answer is Any for pretty much all of them. Because Savage Worlds has no official system of "challenge ratings" (aside from the section on Balance and Combat Ratings in SW Deluxe), there's no official way to reliably calibrate adventure difficulty to character Rank.

Players need to realize that the Weird West is incredibly dangerous, and that sometimes their characters should vamoose to avoid fighting to the death.

That said, there are some gray areas. Weird White North, for example, has pretty potent Big Bads to contend with, and the mini-Plot Point probably isn't long enough to get a group to Heroic or Legendary. Same for South o' the Border.

The upcoming Return to Manitou Bluff (*cough, August, cough*) is specifically intended for Legendary heroes (something we've never done before, to my knowledge), due to over-the-top danger levels.

But those are the only outliers that immediately come to mind.

I like the idea of adventures specifically for legendary characters
