[QUOTE="Zenon, post: 71002, member: 352"] I'll just have to say KD, that it's funny to watch when someone, who in other posts blasts his players for metagame thinking in drawing out AoO's before spellcatsing, has this to say when he's a player in someone elses game: Your statement reeks of metagame thinking by a player. You are as guilty of it while playing as you accuse your players to be when you DM. Shame on you! :) However, as you are fond of saying, "YMMV". More directly on topic, this adventure seems to showcase one of the things I like about 3E. You can't tell how "tough" a monster is anymore. No more "Look! It's a kobold! Kick his #$^&!" You never know, he could be a 20th level fighter. Along the same lines, you are shown you can't judge a flesh golem by looks. I guess it's there to shake up the 22 years of experience you have by turning it upside down and giving it a swift boot. I bet it got your heart pounding when you realized what kind of monster it is (even though you didn't recognize it in-character). Chalk it up as a new and exciting experience (and hopefully a good one). [/QUOTE]
