[QUOTE="TimSmith, post: 2540364, member: 10322"] Hmm, it might be my imagination (after all, I haven't read the adventure) but I am sensing a tendency on the part of the DM to ENCOURAGE us to strike to the head of the organisation. (Perhaps he doesn't want it to take so long in real time as it should.) A couple of things happened that just felt like his own mods to the adventure, that sort of thing, and both players and DM felt the initial waves of easy grunts once we got to the mines (perhaps because a three man party goes up levels quicker, as you say) were getting boring for very little gain in XP or loot. My Dwarf is inherently a practical, cautious guy who wanted to "cover our lines of communication" by clearing the outer levels entirely, but the mage is semi insane (genuinely-not my opinion) and chaotic and is just gung-ho for the biggest enemy he can find. I get over ruled a fair bit. I hope after reading this that we ARE playing a plot modified version of Temple, (even if the monsters are not- even worse the demons etc are the harder 3.5 versions!) because otherwise it could all go horribly wrong by the sounds of it!
