Sialia, dang her eyes, has imported PC's piggy to our Delta Green game, and it does indeed work well. Especially fun are the times when one or two of our players have just walked in and dumped a big handful of change into the pig. "Gonna be one of *those* nights." Our piggy, lovingly crafted by...

We ran a campaign called "AEgypt" several years ago using the Hero system, and had a lot of fun. The GM is slowly converting it over to d20 in case we pick it up again. Link is here. A couple of thoughts: The Dieties and Demigods interpretation of the Egyptian pantheon is one of a lot of...

You are partly correct, it did involve the Shades. The answer to this question is found in Book 2 of the Return of the Archwizards series, "The Siege." SPOILER WARNING * * * * * * * * * * * * In short, Cormyr, who had ostensibly allied themselves with the Shades and Waterdeep to combat the...

There are a couple in the adventure, IIRC. But in the FR driders are really outcasts/enemies of mainline drow culture. So there's no real need for them in a set of figs tied to the module.

If you're in my FRNJ game, don't read this! Possible spoilers below. * * * * * * * * * * * * I've been looking for information on Drow magic items and their use in the Forgotten Realms above ground. My pre-3e knowledge is kinda sketchy, but I remembered that in the days of yore Drow-created...

I'm actually curious about this too, and I was disappointed that more information wasn't given out about the cause of Llolth's withdrawal in the module. It's probably the main plotline of the accompanying modules, however -- unfortunately I'm not planning on reading those. If anyone *has* read...

Palo Alto has a pretty good gaming shop: Gamescape. Gamescape has a board you can post on if you're looking for local games. Palo Alto is also where you find Standford University (universities are always bastions of gaming) and is an important part of Silicon Valley, a huge area with a...

The Balrog is indeed stated. And before anyone get themselves twisted up on *this* board about that starting character thing, the original poster on the Decipher boards was shot down by a horde of posters with a better grasp of the rules system and character design. [B] Yes to both. Also...

Well, I'm not responsible for digging it up, but I did bump it. You're welcome! I was really kind of surprised when I originally started the first impressions thread that I was the first person to get to it, and that it got so many hits. I'm glad folks are finding it useful. Good luck with your...

You're in perfect shape to bring these characters into the adventure; they all have a well-suited set of reasons for being there.

I just bumped the original thread up to the first page, so if you are having trouble with cut-n-paste, just look through the first page or two on the general forum and you should come across it (well, for the next day or two, that is).

*bump* for easy access from another thread.

A friend of mine brought it back from GenCon for me. I started a thread on these boards a couple of weeks ago where we had a lenghthly discussion on the details of the module. Unfortunately I'm not a contributing member here (I've been unemployed for several months) so I can't do searches...

This item has been Rule 0'd out of every campaign I've played in, including the one I run. In fact, I even have problems with the True Stike spell -- awfully unbalanced, isn't it, with a +20 bonus that grants the seeking weapon ability, all at first level?

Again, if you hack-n-slash your way through the adventure the very powerful, very capable, very smart leaders of some of the factions should hunt down the party and squish them like bugs. In fact, there's a whole section in the introduction on how to play the bad guys smart. How do you get role...

Nothing in the recent Dragon is in this module. A good thing, IMO -- I didn't care for that article. There are a lot of Lolth worshiper NPCs, and they're basically not-nice folks, however.

Its price is in-line with FR books of similar length and quality: $29.95US.

I've finished my initial read of the book now, so I think I can address this one better. This adventure is certainly in the "action-adventure" category; it doesn't focus on complex political maneuvering or an epic love story. Just about every encounter is presented with a stat block -- including...

There's another option. The module includes a timeline of events so you can keep track of what the bad guys are doing when. About midway into that timeline (perhaps about when players would be around 14th lvl) there's a big cataclysmic disaster, where events in the Underdark start having a big...
