Case in point of excellent roleplaying in RttToEE: Slight spoilers . . . . . . . The PCs find an insane cultist at the bottom of a pit and begin to question him but he starts talking to himself, "Musn't tell them anything! They don't serve the eye! The Dark one comes for me! Hail the...

I think you got this mostly right here - excpet for the part about the automatic 20 on initative. It will be hard for more than 1 or 2 skeletons to attack with surprise, most will spend the surprise round standing up. Those that do attack will attack prone. Okay. This is good because the...

You are right. Its still cheaper than buying a good quality module by itself though.

Okay, so I'll give the PCs a sense motive check against the Skeletons' bluff check at +10 or +15. Otherwise, at leasts one PC will get hacked at (surprised) as they walk by the skeletons.

So lets say the PCs enter a room and in this room there are badly decayed bodies on he ground. These "corpses" are actually undead skeletons who have been given the command to lay perfectly still until someone comes within reach and then attack. Here's how I want to resolve surprise and combat...

I don't think the mod overuses dragons. There's 3 dragons total and 5 total if you count the half-dragons. Over 10 character levels that's not too many. I give the mod a big thumbs up. I suggest you trim a few encounters from the big dungeon in the middle - the ones that aren't really tied...

Argh! RttToEE is not just one big dungeon to hack through! There's a ton of roleplay potential in the big dungeon, not to mention all the stuff going on in Hommlet.

I don' t know if its fair to call RttToEE a "Diablo" book. Its got a bit of the hack-fest quality to it but there's also mystery, intrigue, betrayal, moral dilemas, puzzles, opportunities for stealth and disguise and lots and lots roleplaying opportunities in the main dungeon. Sure, as a DM I...

Oh , I plan to play that Stones tune at the end of the session :-)

Nice monkey! Welcome to the boards. That's all good advice. I'll post a run-down for certain.

That's good advice. Since we'll have such a large party I'm going to add 1 level of fighter to all the gnolls.

Hi. I'll soon be running the mod "Beast of Burden" from Dungeon #100. For those of you who have read it or run it - please offer any advice you can or any problems you saw with the mod. Also, I'm thinking of building a crude 3-D model of the Katadnatch so players and DM alike can keep track...

Try using a very very long module - I'm talking something that will take levels and level and levels to finish. Theis will keep them from thinking "okay, how can we break this quickly." Then add your own stuff to it - not much - just some side plots, side encounters, an old abandoned mine full...

Thanks. I'll run with that. yeah - three dimensional cube. I gotta cow made of beef too.

Okay I'm running a 6th level one-shot oon July 19th. The session should last 6-8 hours but 10 hours would be acceptable. I would like to run a dungeon crawl for various reasons but I would also like to work in a small amount of role-playing and puzzle-solving along with it. Here's what I have...

Welcome 2d6, d3 and dx! We're filling our dice bag out nicely now. We should do something. A contest perhaps? A game? A party? Dice only? Any ideas? It must of course be silly.

d10 - I took the actual d12 I use for play and put it on my scanner at home to make my avatar. Kamikaze Midget - I'm so glad you think so. I was so lonely for so long as the only die on the boards - but now, I have lots of friends and family in the dicebag with me. Oh, by the way - I spin...

You're the d5 - sure! Do you also have dungeon master's guide, kitty pride and posters on the wall of your favorite rock group, kiss?

Hi-OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Dito! Dito! Dito!
