[QUOTE="Neuroglyph, post: 6455503, member: 85633"] [b]4 out of 5 rating for Menzoberranzan: City of Intrigue[/b] There is a lot of reasons to love Menzoberranzan: City of Intrigue, and it offers a great deal of potential to Dungeon Masters for running a very unique style of evil campaign in any edition of D&D, and a wide variety of other fantasy role-playing games as well.
