Sure. We've long ago established that this ain't the product for you.

They were giving me some encouragement to get the round rolled. I'll see what I can do...

In another thread I have seen you argue with teachers that kids ought to be able to read complicated texts, and yet here you are acting like a new D&D player will be stuck forever if things aren't explicitly spelled out for them. (And you're starting from information that is factually wrong...

Team Lake With their kayak freed, Shade-9 and Aywin landed with a splash in the "pit of teeth". By this time, Bjorn had hopped out of the water and came up near Guldred, who was being threatened by one of the lizardfolk guards. The guard waved his spear threateningly at the giant frog, as...

I literally have the book in front of me right now.

Silly thing didn't post properly.

So you're 9 hours ahead of PST, so your match would start tonight at 8pm.

I played S&L as a kid in Canada, but I haven't seen it since then. My own kids never played it, but then again, I owned a Game Store before they were born, so they grew up with Formula De, Catan, and Carcassonne. We definitely don't do that here. I think that sounds cool, but I've never heard...

Pacific Standard Time. What Province are you in?

Yeah, it's just that one of them literally mentioned Yahtzee. I assume that others played other games. I was honestly lucky (and smart, I suppose) to have on-hand these cheap Chessex sets that are color-coded. The d20 is white, the d4 is yellow, etc. So you can say "roll the blue one" instead...

@JusticeArman I ran it this weekend at my Comic & Game Store. Many of the players had never before touched dice that weren't d6's from Yahtzee (or whatever). Age range varied from 9 to 60. They all enjoyed it, and a few bought their own copy to "keep going". I'd call that a big win!

Less I'd say.

Was that my fault for not putting the Team Infiltrate designation on the post? I sometimes wonder if its necessary for every little post, but if it IS, I will accept that I should be consistent.

I agree. However, I also don't think that the adventure is bad. It's missing some useful things, yes. There are things that many of us enjoy (like a plot!) that it lacks, yes. However, it does what it does generally very well - it has a good set-up, it has a bunch of clever bits, it's...

I also agree that the vagueness of much of the "story"* will be hard on new DMs. I'm what one might call a very experienced DM, and I was a little shocked by the raw number of questions that my (in some cases totally new) players asked that I had to make up the answer on-the-fly, because there...

Oh here we go!

Thanks for the response! As the longtime owner of an FLGS, where I have run demo games since D&D was AD&D 2nd Edition, I understand too well the juggling act that is doing what you love while wanting to be generous, but also put food on the table, and not get taken advantage of. It can be...

Looking forward to hearing how it goes! I had to have two sets at one point today to run it (live) for SEVEN players! That's more like $17.50 CAD, but yeah, not terrible.
