[QUOTE="gideonpepys, post: 6156662, member: 79141"] [b]The first major departure[/b] My next post will give details of two important events that happened during this last session (81). They represent the first major(ish) departures I have made from the published adventures (if you don't count the subplots and buffer adventures, which I don't). The first concerns an elaborate ruse on the part of Governor Stanfield to draw suspicion away from himself, and plant it firmly at the door of Lorcan Kell. Stanfield knows that Kell is a liability and would be happy to see the unit deal with him. He will be leading the push to 'Get Kell', while the King and Harkover Lee will further galvanize the unit at the start of [I]Cauldron Born[/I]. I also plan to run the Kell operation over five weeks, as opposed to five days - but each action will take a week instead of a day. (I'm throwing an extra challenge/complication into [I]Cauldron Born[/I] in the form of a hunt for the golem eye mentioned in the [I]Campaign Guide[/I], so the players will still be stretched. So I guess that's three major alterations. But then, when we get to [I]Cauldron Born[/I], there are quite a lot more.) The second alteration came about because I had kept Wolfgang von Recklinghause in Flint after [I]The Dying Skyseer[/I]. In accordance with the suggestion of the adventure text, he had attended the Gala of the Ancients with Lynn Kindleton at the end of [I]Digging for Lies[/I]. Isobel and Andrei had also come to Flint. So I took another idea from the [I]Campaign Guide[/I] which never saw the light of day, and had Wolfgang approach the unit some weeks ago and tell them he had been approached by the Ob. They assumed this was the hook for the next adventure. What happened this week served three purposes:it got rid of Wolfgang; it made the unit indirectly responsible for what happens to Andrei von Recklinghausen; and it made the players tear their hair out in confusion, and therefore more desperate for another lead, which will come in the form of the hunt for Kell (and hopefully make them very grateful to Stanfield).
