[QUOTE="Eltern, post: 1596522, member: 5870"] Thanks for the suggestions, guys, but, ummm...you did read the parts where I said I had already run RttToEE and the Banewarrens, right? I guess you could have read that, but not realized that a fair portion of this group has been through one or both (with me DMing) before. ;) A question about Necromancer Games' adventures: I have only really SEEN the Wizard's Amulet and Crucible of Freya (own them, actually), but from what I hear about most of their other adventures, such as Rappan and to some extent Tomb of Abysthor, they're big...dungeons. Yes, this may be 1st edition feel, but when reviews say "there isn't much of an overarching plot, so hooks may be a little difficult to concoct" I go "Eeewie! Hacknslash! :confused: " Dungeons are good, but it seems that virtually all of NG's adventures are of the same variety, with some undead and co. stomping around in a multi-level dungeon ecosystem w/o a lot of plot. Am I -completely- off the wall here? As such Rappan tastes bitter to my mouth, and Tomb of Abysthor a less intense one, though looking through its reviews it looks like it is a very good adventure, but maybe not what I'm looking for. Maybe I need to be looking for something different. :uhoh: As for Shackled City...given that it's not a distinct, seperate 3rd party adventure (kinda is, kinda isn't), it didn't even show up on my radar screen. Now I've search around for it and...ooooh...pretty. They seem more interconnected than WotC's adventure path. True? Skimming story hours, it looks that way, but I can't seem to find a review-ish overview of the whole deal. Thanks for the help! Eltern [/QUOTE]
