On the one hand, you guys are a pretty pimped-out set of characters.  Massacre has the lowest AC among you at 35; I'd have had to raise the goristro by 2 levels to give it a 50% chance to hit Massacre in melee, and he couldn't hit Batin at all except on a natural 20.  And his AC was only 31, reflex only 27.  You guys won't be missing monsters like him very often, and 450 HP didn't last nearly as long as I thought it would.  On the other hand, this adventure seems to call for lots (and lots and lots) of encounters that are individually fairly easy.  I think I'll have to tinker with that, and have fewer encounters that are tougher.</blockquote>
