[QUOTE="gizmo33, post: 3839172, member: 30001"] It's not particularly polite to refrain from saying something on a message board. Why not just talk about your ideas? I guess your brain is just so powerful that your merest thought is going to cause me some sort of pain? Have at it! The Moathouse was part of the module. I actually own the monochrome version. It is obvious that reality here is taking place mostly in your imagination. My age will apparently always remain a mystery. Anyway, to reiterate the point about, it's not your participation that's rude as you seem to think. But if your participation in the thread habitually requires you to saying things are dumb then I can see why you would be used to thinking this way. Was it really a great learning tool? What's a beginning DM do with a description of a tailor whose a 7th level fighter when using a crossbow? Compare it to keep on the borderlands where at least there's some effort made to explain some concepts, because KotB was intended to be a beginning module. The final words on the moathouse suggests that if the PCs defeat Lareth that they (1st to 3rd level characters, AFAICT) are pursued by a 10th level assassin! (Edit: Let me spell it out for you - Gygax is suggesting that the DM send an unstatted 10th level assassins after a 3rd level party, and you think this is advice for a beginning DM? Give me a break.) The righteous indignation that you are affecting this this post is completely unwarranted IMO. I'm sorry you're not a better reader. I'm sorry that this is your posting habit, though I see now why you equate posting your ideas with being rude. I'm sorry I gathered nothing from your post other that a display of psychological peculiarities. It's probably too much to hope that you'll get much from mine. Doesn't your copy of Hommlet have the moathouse in it? Maybe it fell out with the staples? [/QUOTE]
