It's going to be the next campaign my Monday night crew play, starting in a week. We finished Shadow of the Dragon Queen last week. Which gave us this Monday off. (Just as well, people were TIRED last night!)I'm very curious to see how the new adventure plays. This particular group actually played through Lost Mine of Phandelver not all that long ago - err, a year or two ago? I did a mash-up of Lost MIne and Dragon of Icespire Peak which worked really well. And, as a result, my players are very confused as to which bits existed in which adventure.NewbieDM noted that the horses were now alive in that initial encounter.  I wonder what else has changed of the base experience?I've never managed a TPK in the early stages of the adventure - which I've run four or five times as I recall. I've dropped a character - one unlucky crit doomed a cleric the first time I ran it - or two in that first encounter, which led to the characters entering Phandalin before going to the goblin cave.It worked, either way.I'm likely to blog about my experiences.Cheers,Merric</blockquote>
