[QUOTE="cthulhu42, post: 7311886, member: 6792361"] I'm also currently running AtG. It sounds like I'm only slightly ahead of you. My players just finished their first session in the upper lair of the frost giants tonight. Chief Nosnra also escaped in my game, and as others have said, I'm having him flee to the fire giant lair, but not before informing the frost giants of what happened in his own lair. Thus, the frost giants have been warned and they are acting accordingly, although I'm allowing for a little bit of hubris on their part, at least until the upper level has been bested. More than likely some survivor will flee to the lower level, at which point the Jarl will take the coming threat much more seriously. I'm planning quite the ambush/last stand in the Jarl's throne room. At any rate, Nosnra will flee to the fire giant lair where Snurre will relegate the disgraced hill giant chief to the storage room. However, when/if Snurre escapes and flees to the 2nd level, he will charge Nosnra, any remaining hill giants, and several of his own giants with defending his lair while he escapes into the 3rd level. Nosnra will have to stand fast against the party on threat of death from his superior. Having Nosnra escape to warn the frost and fire giants has really thrown the adventure as written out the window, but I'm having a lot of fun working out strategies for ambushes and so forth. It's been much more fun than just having them go from room to room, killing occupants as laid out by the module, and ultimately it'll be a much greater challenge to the PC's. [/QUOTE]
