Message: <blockquote data-quote="KarinsDad" data-source="post: 6396790" data-attributes="member: 2011">Mine as well.The DM actually mentioned that she thought that some parts of it were really not thought out that well. For example, the guards at the keep have spears instead of bows (she gave bows to the ones that backed our group up in the half dragon fight). I suspect that the intent of this was so that the guards could not try to prevent foes (including the dragon) from coming within several hundred feet of the keep. It's a detail that when viewed in hindsight makes sense from an adventure design POV (i.e. if the guards do not have bows, they cannot help in any battle near the keep), but makes very little sense from a plausibility POV. The guards in a keep required to keep order in and defend an unwalled town do not have bows? What? In our game (do not know about the module), the PCs were actually even able to acquire bows and arrows in the keep.Granted, with us knowing the rules now, bows would not have helped in some situations since firing into the dark has disadvantage, but it is just one of the details where even an inexperienced DM said "What?".She even said that one of the sections (I do not know which one) is so totally bad and illogical that she had to drop it from the adventure.</blockquote>
