Rappan Athuk: Ravage of The Unusual Heroes!

[Dr Midnight]

Hoooleeeeee crap...

You think you've seen carnage... and then you see something like this. Bodies fell to the ground like rain, huge chunks of XP were whittled away without a thought, and it just didn't seem to end.

All I've got to say is that I hate the ELH.

 

[Breakstone]

Woah...

Take your time, Ziona... we'd like all the gory details we can get!

 

[Horacio]

Ziona, I'll wait patiently for the update, please do it detailed

 

[avangel]

What a battle!

 

[Ziona]

Yeah, I have one small part of the story I have to post before I start the big battle, and then the carnage will begin!

It may take a little longer to write the battle from last night because I didn't actually use my journal to take notes. We video taped the whole thing, so it should be interesting to listen to a video that's completely focused on miniatures standing in a room made of Master Maze!

 

[Dawn]

I guessed the body count would be high, but this begins to rival RttToEE.

It will be interesting to see how my group fares against this place.

 

[Xaltar]

Yeah, Rappan Athuk is a hefty module!

My party tore through the first several levels, but shortly after that things go down hill for the party and fast. I must say, that when Ziona was captured, and without another healer in the group, combat became much more risky.

Rappan Athuk is three books long, and by the time you start getting into the third one, everyone was pretty much done with the endless dungeon crawl. So I changed the story, forced them to find the necessary key, and brought them into parts of the WOTC module, "Deep Horizon."

Then I finished the module off with a custom ending including a fortified keep within the confines of the Goblin City.

On Sunday we are going to have a clean-up session to sift through the rumble, loot, and figure out what the party will do next.

Here are some shots from last night:

The crew, ready for action...along with 7 other people not in this picture!

Here is the opening scene, the Goblin City's Inner Keep, deep within Rappan Athuk.

Avangel squares off against an old enemy.

Man Down! Err...Everybody Down!

 

[Hammerhead]

I have a question. Is the "unwinnable" battle still in there. (The one no one has ever won?)

 

[Horacio]

Wow! I'm speechless...

 

[Breakstone]

To quote a famous detective... Wowsers Bowsers!

I can't wait, Ziona!
