[QUOTE="Celeblas, post: 3439492, member: 44040"] Well it looks like Expedition to the Demonweb Pits was delivered to Germany a little bit earlier and so I found a packet containing the book in my mailbox. It seems that my FLGS sent it out a little bit earlier. Well I certainly won't complain ;). So far I haven't read very much of the book but it looks quite nice. The Background Story of the Module centers around Graz'zt. He made a proposal to Lolth suggesting to ally against Orcus and divide his power base between them. Well Lolth rejected his offer and so he started plotting against her spreading a rumor that the Spiderqueen is going to take a more offensive role in the war against Corellon and the surface elves. Graz'zt also tries to ally with his longeterm enemy Malcanthet against Lolth. The Layout of the book is quite nice and so far I have only recogniced the reprint of two maps (Sigil from the Palar Handbook and Graz'zts Realm from FC1). It also looks like they reprinted some of the Demonlord Aspects from FC1 webenhancement. Well fair enough in my opinion ;). Well for now I can only provide the ToC and try to answer questions :).
