[QUOTE="Dire Bare, post: 4451990, member: 18182"] Gamers, we know how to big enormous mountains of little tiny molehills! We are even able to be "insulted" by things that are in no way insulting. Sigh. I have no need for a adventure path synopsis. I wouldn't mind seeing one if they published it, but I don't miss it. Didn't even realize they decided against doing it until this thread. The decision to include an overall synopsis or not to include one is a decision WotC would get silly complaints over either way. Lose-lose, in a fashion. So they turned right instead of left, who cares? The lack of a synopsis in no way lessens the value of Scales of War or of the "new" Dungeon Magazine. Many DMs, like me, run things off the cuff as they come to us. If we improvise some story arcs that don't show up in the next installment, or are changed . . . we roll with it and improvise some more! It's so much more of a laid back style and I have so little stress from prepping for my games. If you are the kind of DM who needs rigid maps and all the details plotted out before you start playing, a synopsis would be nice. If you just can't live without it, keep collecting the excellent Scales of War and just don't run it until all 18 (?) episodes have been released. In the meantime, run something else! So much drama . . . . [/QUOTE]
