I have a feeling that the people that were scheduled to DM had read it before the Con...because neither of them turned up!We had to draft in some other DM's to run the two versions of it. It's a disastrous stinker of a module. We were railroaded into not being able to cast any spells...ack you heard it all in the other post. The replacement DM we did have made a great job of entertaining us with a depressed xorn that was very Eeyore in character (it started fighting other creatures for us, we could hear it echoing down the corridor..."I'm going to kill you...in about five minutes...here it comes...are you ready...") and generally keeping a group of exhausted sleep deprived players occupied at 2am. Hats off to him, whoever he was.But the module was dire.My con experience is quite balanced. Only a few of the games at this years GenCon had been below a decent standard, and S'mons game and my brothers game were very enjoyable! So it can be a mixed bag, but you hit a bad game, ooo boy it can be really bad...</blockquote>
