I've never held to the concept that the BBEG has to be the boss encounter. I remember running one game where the BBEG was a 2 HD orc reflavoured to a human and we were playing as 7-9th-level characters. He was a bishop in a church that was engaging in illegal slave trade, mostly with children kidnapped off the streets, and had very little power other than what he had from his position in the church. The players actually loved it 'cause I made him a right bastard so when they finally got through his guards and protections, they had a great time being able to scare him into submission with a few growls, some menacing glares, a few choice words and the promise of imminent death should he try to get away <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />I tend to make my evil guys really evil <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=":)" />Besides which, I'm sure they'll end up in the Monster Builder which just requires a few tweaks to bump them up to elites or solos if that's what I feel they need.As for not having an adventure or maps, again that's something I don't have a problem with and in fact, prefer. It hearkens back to the golden days (IMO, YMMV) of Greyhawk and even Forgotten Realms where so many great supplements came out that were chockers with content ripe for the picking.EDIT: I should point out that even though there's only been 32 votes that the overwhelming majority have said it's an above average book. And when taking all votes into account, then 91% are saying it's worth buying. That's a pretty darn solid recommendation!</blockquote>
