[QUOTE="Cam Banks, post: 3485643, member: 3817"] Yeah, I was going to say... I live in State College, but I'm packing my family up and moving to Wisconsin in a month or two, since Margaret offered me a full-time job with MWP. I don't believe the original DL modules are any more railroading than some of the newer adventures WotC have released, such as the Eberron adventures. Indeed, the DL modules are known for having multiple options just because the designers didn't want the players to know how the story would turn out having read the novels. The revised Classic adventures we're producing now (Dragons of Autumn was the first, and I'm working on Dragons of Winter at the moment) use the concept of character archetypes to frame the narrative. The original pregens are included (Tanis, Caramon, etc) and assigned an archetype, but we expect people to create their own characters to fill those archetypes if they don't want to walk in the footsteps of the novel characters.
