So what quest/module do you suggest a group of 4/5 noobs start with?  Keep in mind we want as structured of games as possible.. our dm doesnt want to make adventures up..

There shouldn't be an issue using the level 1 adventure from the Red Box, then moving into the adventures provided in the DM Kit.

agreed! it will work quite nicely. then they could continue with the monster vault adventure (cairn of the winter king), and then finally, gardmore. its a much, much better "adventure path" than the old modules, thats for sure

Next Question for now. 

For this first campaign.. That comes with the starter box.. Can someone tell me what Minis I need for It (Besides our Adventurers.)  I'd like to get all the enemy minis we need to, just to add a little to the game. Thanks!

I don't have it in front of me but I will give it a shot. I ran it about a year ago. You will need lots of kobolds and goblins of different types. I think one encounter has 10 kobolds in it. Goblins are spread out a little more with 2 or 3 different types present. You need a guard drake and oddly a horse (optional but there is one). You will need a large white dragon. In the second half of the adventure you will need a bugbear, 2 or 3 armored humanoids, 3 or 4 skeletons, 1 zombie hulk, and a necromancer humanoid piece. If you do the trap room the way it was written, you will also need real chess pieces. I turned it into a torture chamber/supply room with lots of supplies and paperwork leading them into Reavers of Harkenwold by having these humanoids be part of the strike force of that level 2-4 adventure.

you dont need any. there are tokens in the red box for every monster and for pcs. it would be a colossal waste of money to try and buy all those minis. colossal. and that is coming from someone with hundreds of minis. play the red box with the tokens and see if youre hooked from there, but even then, minis are a real expensive pain to collect. the monster vault has tokens for every monster in it; it would cost you thousands of dollars to track them down individually
