Rappan Athuk: Ravage of The Unusual Heroes!

Loved the update! The pictures really helped with understanding the locations of the different battles.

As much as I like the 3-D layout, does it not give away too much to the players? True, that would be meta-gaming, but I can’t help but think it influences the players actions to see the entire place laid out before them.

Thank you very much for the complements, guys! And thanks for your patience, too. (I would never suggest video taping and taking notes afterwards...way too difficult to forward through everything. It's very time consuming, so I appreciate you being patient with me).

As for the mastermaze, it was very cool to use for the battle since we were really only headed into one room, but I think it would be difficult for every week use. Like you said, it could influence the direction that players might take, unless you put it together as they went along. But I think for the battle Xaltar wanted to save time. He told us it was mainly going to take place in one large room, so we kind of knew what to expect from the mastermaze set up.

I will be working on the story more tonight. Thanks again for your praise and patience!

It hints at a few things but don't be too sure you know what's going to happen! We aim to keep you on your toes.

Funny thing...

I just got the new Dragon in the mail, and it has an advertisement for Drizzt's new book, "The Thousand Orcs."

And so it begins. Vengance is finally at hand.

Pffft. What a drama queen.

Ugh. Epic levels make me shiver. I don't want to read the next part, it'll bring back too many horrible memories...

Freakin' Josh! "He hits AC 45... does that hit you?" (cue big ****-eating grin)

I've been working on the next part of the story on my lunch break, actually. I still have more notes to take, but alot of pain and suffering is looming just around the corner...

Again? Well, that's not too much of a surpise. You know I bet this group grants amazing amounts of power to Loviatar and Ilmater through their actions alone.

Well, this is actually the "Chosen of Gruumsh" that they are planning on facing... Not Gruumsh himself.

They just aren't that tough, even with a handful of extra members.

Of course, it would be too easy, and not as much fun for me if I didn't get to use the Epic Level Handbook. Devestating Critical, Dire Charge, so many good Epic Level feats.

Great reference MoH!
