Merric, I just read your comment about Necropolis, which prompted me to read your very favorable review at RPGGeek. What a surprise! I had never even heard of Necropolis until now, it somehow slipped past my radar. I am very intrigued now and will certainly try to track it down. The Egyptian...

Thanks for pointing that out! We just had our first few sessions with the starter set but I totally overlooked that. My rogue player wont be happy to hear that!

Yes, a good amount of restructuring the storyline to link the modules together is required with a Skull & Shackles/Serpent's Skull mashup, which I was prepared for when we began playing it. I also borrowed liberally from Isles of the Shackles campaign setting book, it has some wonderful ideas...

Great reviews of these two modules, MerricB, I agreed with just about everything you said. David Cook's wide open approach to his adventures have always had variance (from the excellent Isle of Dread to the disappointing Dwellers of the Forbidden City), but I think the Desert Nomad series is his...

I think these two APs work best when combined. I started a group in book 1 and 2 of S&S, then plan to use book 3 from SS, book 4 from S&S and finish with books 5 & 6 from SS. Obviously, the overall plot arch will need adjusting to suit your campaign. Also, Freeport is an excellent resource that...

Hi, I created an RPG called Basilisk and I need people to play test and give feedback. You can grab all the PDFs from: www.basiliskrpg.com It's a gritty, skill based system that uses D20. Combat can be quick and lethal. Characters actions are influenced by their motives.

I still exists

Not sure about it.

I'm sure the next play test will be different.

Entangle and monster summoning I.

There are always undead around.

If you want more power creep then its a good thing otherwise a little too much for my liking.

I think skills need to be totally overhauled - simpler and less accounting.

There's a dungeon coming out next month from Paizo called The Dragon's Demand for PF. Its a re-launch of their module line, only its much bigger (64 pages) and covers level 1 - 6. It looks very good, check it out at Paizo. Sorry, still not able to post a link :(

For pure dungeon crawl, trap-riddled goodness I highly reccommend The Tomb of the Iron Medusa by Mike Shel, I have copy/pasted my review for you here: There's an old adage that goes "what's old is new" and Tomb of the Iron Medusa fits that like a glove. I'll be honest: I'm an old-school gamer...

Scrivener of Doom: although I wouldn't rank ToEE as one of the worst modules, it was definately a big letdown. So much more could (and should) have been done with it. Back in those days we still enjoyed it, even though my group did not survive. The second time I ran ToEE I had to make some...

A dead but really interesting thread, so I'll ressurect it. I agreed with several already mentioned (Castle Greyhawk, Gargoyle, Dragonlance) so I'll add a few more notables that haven't been mentioned: X12 Skarda's Mirror N4 Treasure Hunt WG4 The Forgotten Temple of Tharizdun WGA4 Vecna...
