[QUOTE="Schmoe, post: 7357470, member: 913"] It has been a long time since I've looked at B3, but I ran it a couple times early on. I remember having a great time with it both times. The Decapus, especially, was good for the shock value and for putting some fear into the players. Of all the adventures I've played, this is the closest I've come to playing a fairy tale. It comes complete with the sleeping princess and the rescuing prince, and a fantastical story of dragons and romance. I'll have to dig it out again and read through to see how it holds up with age. For example, I really don't remember the part where you are supposed to fill in your own encounters! One thing that I remember vividly was the step-by-step introduction to the dungeon. I ran through this as a very novice DM. I basically followed it step-by-step as scripted, and it was hugely helpful for introducing me to how the game could be run. I went back to that part afterwards and referenced it multiple times as a newbie DM. Alas, I've never owned or run B4. It sounds like it has great flavor for kicking off a campaign in a desert environment, so I may try to fit this in for a future campaign that eventually leads to the Desert of Desolation series.
