[QUOTE="EricNoah, post: 463269, member: 4"] What a fun-filled day! The drive down and back wasn't as bad or as long as I recall it being (2 hours each way). The morning session was a treat as Trevalon ran our group through the first part of "Moonligh Madness" which had a couple of interesting combats that differed from the norm (one in which our goal was to rescue someone who was being attacked by townsfolk while not necessarily dishing out lethal damage, and another one that involved a wagon pulled by spooked horses hurtling toward the edge of a precipice) and some good roleplaying. Plus I don't recall Fayredeth even ONCE saying "I SHALL SMITE THEE" -- though I'm not sure that's a good thing. :) I had lunch with Curt of Games Plus and then Trev helped me haul my big box o' stuff to the shop. There was LOTS O' SWAG this time, and not just "old leftovers" from me -- lots of publishers and even an artist donated stuff, and every single person walked away with some loot. I was so gratified to see all of the stuff I brought disappear. :) Afternoon/evening session was just some great old school dungeon stomping, complete with trick/trap rooms, a magic key to open a magic door, reverse gravity areas, and the total anihilation of one of the party members toward the end. Eridanis juggled our rather ornery group well, and I think we're all looking forward to seeing how we "scored" in this 1st Edition tournament module (I think we might have lost some points for a little something called TEAMWORK, but what the heck, we FOUND THE MAGIC GEM and that's all that matters, right?) Mark, thanks as always for a masterful job of organizing, and Curt thanks again to you and your crew for hosting -- only a few short months until the next one. Hmmm.... should I run something??
