[QUOTE="Rils, post: 6866508, member: 78768"] Yeah, it's finally April AL Releases Day! Our home group had planned on running the AL series for our monthly game, and as the DM I just went to buy the new modules, but I'm little confused by the descriptions in the "blurbs" for each. I know it's been said that they form a linear plot, but then why does 04-02 say "return to the Quivering Forest" - when we either just got sucked into the Mists (04-01) or just walked out of Death House into the streets of Barovia Village? I thought we were stuck in Ravenloft? Also, why does 04-05 say "you finally get to explore beyond the village of Oranou", when by that point you're already 4 modules in and already have experienced the Village of Barovia? (assuming Death House, which we're in the middle of.) Won't you have already seen a few sights by that point? I realize the easy answer is "buy the modules and find out", but before I use my monthly gaming budget on them, I'd appreciate any comments people are willing to share about the continuity of the story (once you've had a chance to look them over, of course). What I'm reading in the product descriptions doesn't seem to match up with the intro material, and I'm now hesitating before heading down that path... Thanks, [/QUOTE]
