[QUOTE="Coroc, post: 7894000, member: 6895991"] Well despite being a wonderful story, the translation approach into the DL modules was not up to todays standards. Beginning with the party starting level at 5th, the starting scene in the inn is rather like level 1 still wet behind the ears absolute fledglings. Also the first encounters are like for 5e level 1 characters. Otoh the chapter endboss black dragon (where they have to get the disks) is pretty tough for the party. I think this starting level 5 comes from the thought "there be lots of dragons" but on the other side they limit max level to 18th and the rules say every one above that gets the direct attentions from Krynns gods. That would also explain the "low" levels for your heads of the orders. One think I instantly would houserule if I would DM DL would be the steel coin monetary system. The idea makes me wind in agony, why not wood chips? I mean todays coins are sometimes not worth the material (sometimes in the case of low value copper coins the material is more costly than the depicted value though), but I cannot remember having read anywhere that the coins at least have engravings on them (again steel would be an awful material to do thins) or imprints of a rulers face or such, so that they are at least a little proof against forgery.
