Your Freeport experience

Also, for those interested, I started an ENWorld blog as a place to put running commentary on my upcoming Freeport Pbp game.

Captain Scarbelly is still alive IMC as well! The PCs were cast as piratey types and have surprisingly little intent in killing their enemies if they can defeat them through other means. Having Scarbelly alive turned out to be good thing as he is the only one ever to have navigated a vessel out of Hell...

All IMC ofcourse

How are the Freeport adventures rated? I have the campaign book, and it's just awesome. I have considered using it as center of my next campaign, and I was wondering if it would be worth investing in the adventures as well, if you consider that I play 4e.

I have run the entire Freeport trilogy once and I am currently about half way through running it again with another group. I have also run a Crisis in Freeport once as well. In both campaigns, the party was strongly good aligned and they typically were reluctant to kill people in the streets unless it was very clear that the intent of their assailants was death, such as when the party was attacked by the Yellow Shields. However, anything underground, that was different matter: Anything in a hidden temple to the Unspeakable One or anything in the sewers was pretty much fair game.

The trilogy is good. There are a few things that I've "fixed" because I don't like them but over all I'm very pleased. They are each short modules (32pgs) and not dungeon crawl based. I think if a party was so focused that each module could be done in a session or two.

I like the modules, and in general, I'm not a module kinda guy. They're pretty well done, though.

One of the most amusing moments of my RPG career was the authorities in Freeport giving my LG paladin and the LG cleric of justice authority to act as we saw fit "for the good of the town"... You have no idea how much trouble a power-crazed paladin can cause in the name of good!

(Poor old Freeport was never quite the same!)

Need ideas for: What interesting books would be found in the Temple of Knowledge in Freeport? Instead of having Pcs that good drinking in whoring, I have PCs that spenmd their off time in the library. My D&D nerd players are playing the D&D version of nerd characters!
