Advice for playing above the recommended player count? (7) Hi everyone,

Getting ready to run COS for the first time. I've got a great group of 7 inexperienced players that are excited to play, but I'm not sure how much the default encounters should be adjusted to fit the expanded player count (I know COS is recommended for 4-6 players). For some additional context we're playing 5e, starting level 1 and playing through Death House.

Any suggestions on how to change encounters to better fit a party of 7? Or do I just roll with it as is and accept that the difficulty's going to be dialed down?

Thanks everyone!
