WotC fights back against PDF pirates?

So, checking wizards site tonight, and I find this. D&D Test Drive

Wizards has released Keep on the Shadowfell as a free download! Huh... What was that about not releasing any more pdfs? (Plus, its been updated too...)

Very smart move. I applaud WOTC for this one. They've put in circulation a version of the game that (a) is of a quality THEY can control, (b) has maximum diffusion (free + easy access) and (c) entices people to buy more of their material.

Bah... Just realized someone had already beat me to the post...

How was it updated? I still see the 3rd encounter for a group of level ones to be a L+5 guaranteed wipe encounter harder than the final encounter of the module and is immediately adjacent to and potentially becomes part of the 2nd encounter to make it even harder. I would think if anything was going to be updated, it would be that!

Regicide, checked the thread that's linked just above your post. It has the details.

Since the other thread is larger and in the right forum, I'll close this one.
