[QUOTE="Will Doyle, post: 6300736, member: 6682161"] I ran into some minor problems with this adventure right from the start. The intro read-aloud tells the players about the orc raid on the Floshin estate, and the kidnapping of his servants. It even ends with "One can only imagine their horrible fate!". A bit of asking around, and the players learn that one servant escaped, but the rest of the women are still missing. Although the dragon attack is a strong diversion, my players were *all the time* wanting to rescue the girls and it made Sir Isteval look like a bit of a pillock for leading them in another direction. It's a simple fix: just change the intro text, and say that the orcs were tracked down and slain by Sir Isteval after the woman escaped. The rest of the adventure is easy. Definitely play up the cute with the wyrmling - that worked brilliantly for my group. It's a great dungeon, but overall our group found the clotskull tribe kidnap/rape/breeding thing in rather bad taste, so you may want to cut that out. [/QUOTE]
