[QUOTE="MerricB, post: 6169639, member: 3586"] Well, 3E has extensive check DCs in its rulebooks, 4E has a standardized table and so does Next, so that shouldn't be too hard - I seem to recall check DCs in the Launch Event booklet, though. I've just been reading reviews of the Baldur's Gate novels (which is where Abdel Adrian) came from. They're quite hilarious - the novels are apparently appalling. My general take on it is that the computer game happened, and we'll just use Adrian's name for the main character (as, let's face it, it's a bit difficult to get one from the computer game when you got to name him!) There are a number of additional events on the product page for the adventure ([url=http://www.wizards.com/dnd/Product.aspx?x=dnd/products/dndacc/45370000]here[/url]), as well as the monster stats. Based on those, it looks like a challenging adventure to run, but challenging in a good way; it's a long, long way from the linear dungeon-crawls of most of 4E's HPE series. Sigh. Still need to see the adventure proper. The Launch Event expands the initial encounter in the adventure substantially - at least that's what the event notes say - and again will be challenging to run. Cheers! [/QUOTE]
