[QUOTE="Sammael, post: 2701637, member: 4475"] I just returned from the Game Day, where I DMed my own adventure - Shadow of the Iron Throne (set as a sort of a prequel to the events in the computer game Baldur's Gate). I had six players, three from my regular group, two I know (but haven't played with) and one kid whose only experience so far was Neverwinter Nights. It was a HUGE success. Everybody had a blast, we managed to conclude the adventure in three hours (a record!) with only slight railroading on my part. My intuition about tying the adventure in with the computer game was right, as players actually recognized several characters and the continuity was preserved (ironically and unwittingly, the party helped Sarevok take over the Iron Throne in Baldur's Gate and become a reputable citizen; they also fetched him the "iron poison" alchemical substance, thinking it was something needed to decipher a particular document :D).
