Great cover illustration! I wonder if Ari's adventure is a conversion or an update altered to take into consideration the new rules set....

Some of each. The monsters are all redone, of course, and some have been not just converted but replaced, to match 4E. But I've also made other changes to account for the new system--changes to the weather and other hazards, a few minor alterations to some of the maps to make the combat areas larger, that sort of thing.

It's still the same adventure, so there aren't too many wholesale alterations, but the conversion was executed with not just the mechanical changes, but the "style of play" changes, in mind.

Is it me or does the artwork for the Dungeon magazine look almost exactly like the artwork for Orcus?

WAR likes his guys to hold weapons with hyper-extended arms.

Thanks for the early info, Ari. I quite enjoyed reading the original but never got a chance to play it. Looks like that will change soon!

Is it a "conversion" (i.e. "Get 3.5 copy, insert X where Y should be"), or is the entire adventure re-posted?

I ask because I didn't read the 3.5 one.

I get the impression that the entire adventure is being reposted. If I'm wrong, though, you can still download the original. It's in the archives, and only a month or three back.

While I don't want to make any firm promises, purely because things can always change during development... When I worked on it, it was to be the entire adventure.
