[QUOTE="Thotas, post: 2531421, member: 18974"] I'm gonna run back to the first page and stand with Teflon Billy. I was a player in "Curse of the Azure Bonds", and it was unfun; and as many have pointed out in arguements about the "right" or "wrong" way to play, it comes down to the fun. CotAB was not fun, and it wasn't my fault or the DM's fault. It was the fault of the storyline that (SPOILER!!!!!) allowed the enemy a free hold person spell at the beginning of Every Single Major Confrontation ... that I failed, every time. Essentially, every time it came to the stuff I was at the table for, I got removed from the game immediately, through no fault of my own. At one point, suspecting (hoping?) that it was something she could only use against targets as opposed to area effect, I turned myself invisible going in, thinking that might exempt me. So I failed the save, was rendered stiff while invisible on the battlefield, and ended up in the line of a lightning bolt cast by someone who didn't even know I was there. Halfrogman, at least you got one shot in before you died in the Gauntlet thing. I died in a fight I wasn't even in, in an adventure I really didn't participate in. I Hate this Crummy Adventure. And on the 3e change to hold person such that you get a new save every round ... I abstaine from having an opinion 'cause I can't be objective. [/QUOTE]
