[QUOTE="billd91, post: 8255116, member: 3400"] You might want to slow your roll there. Whether or not Dungeon of the Mad Mage is magic treasure lite or not, AL isn't exactly administered the same as a typical home campaign, even if you are running a hardcover adventure in AL-style. There are considerations embedded in the rules of AL to facilitate players taking their PCs from event to event, playing adventures in a variety of mixed orders as events are available, and otherwise streamlining administration of characters so very little DM overhead is required and there aren't too many worries about inconsistency - something a regular home campaign running the module would handle very differently (such as using downtime to buy magic items). Baconbits is basically complaining about the adventure as run by his home DM by comparing it to how a different DM (the AL guidelines) chose to do so. He might as well be complaining about the adventure as run by "Just as it is Joe" vs "Arlene the Adapter" vs "TPK Tyler" vs "Easygoing Eddie". [/QUOTE]
