[QUOTE="Calico_Jack73, post: 1579129, member: 14403"] I too have gotten the Midnight bug in a BIG way... A word of warning on their first published module "Crown of Shadow" if you ever do run it... the authors expect you to do a little work on your own. I'm running it now and I love it... there are no little grey boxes with text to read to your players. The plot is so sweeping that you can plug in your own mini adventures along the way. It covers pretty much every geographical location in the setting to give new DMs and Players (new to the setting) a feel for the world. A lot of people don't like it because they say it railroads the players. I agree to a point... but only on the point that EVERY module railroads players towards a final ending. Because the module is more-or-less just a plot overview with some encounters set up along the way I feel that it gives a DM a lot more flexibility than some modules I've seen in the past. If you want a module that hands you the adventure on a silver platter the "Crown of Shadow" is not for you. If you like to customize your modules and have a bit of freedom with it the you'll get a lot out of it. Gee... I should have posted this in the reviews section. :) [/QUOTE]
