Message: <blockquote data-quote="Richards" data-source="post: 1374142" data-attributes="member: 508">Yeah, I had been kind of hoping they might put all of the player handout stuff (the command word cards from scenarios #1 and #8, the puzzle pieces from scenario #9, the number disks from scenario #10) on a single sheet of cardboard (like they used to do with all of their cut-out monster tokens) - it would make things a lot easier on the DMs using the adventure.Of course, you could always do it the old-fashioned, more difficult method (like I did), and make your player handouts from scratch.  I drew, colored, and cut out everything from blank index cards.  (Hint: instead of trying to draw each of the puzzle pieces, measure out the solution, draw the pieces inside the finished shapes, cut them out, and then color them.  Much easier that way.)  If you make your own "props" by hand, I also suggest changing the "font style" of the number disks for scenario #10 back to a simpler style, with the "1" just a straight, vertical, thin rectangle, the "4" not coming to a point on top, etc.  (I don't want to give a reason why, for those who haven't seen the adventure yet, but it works better with a simpler style.)  Likewise, if you make your own puzzle pieces, you can actually color them in the same colors as described in the adventure, not the purple and orange that suddenly showed up out of nowhere.Oh, and as for the pattern being broken, yeah, there was not much I could do about that.  "A new 'Challenge of Champions' every 11 issues" only worked out when Dungeon was a bi-monthly magazine; there's no way I can crank them out every 11 months!  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Johnathan</blockquote>
