Glad to see this finally released. I know it was in the works for a long time and that a lot of people put in a lot of effort on it. That said, the maps are remarkably hideous (and very dated-looking to boot) and that fact alone is probably enough to keep me from ever running (or even reading all the way through) this module -- well, that plus the fact that I don't want to either read a 134 page module sitting in front of my monitor or use the ink to print it out (especially those ugly full-color maps).

Just a reminder that Foster's opinion isn't necessarily that of the entire Alehouse, just one opinion. In case it's taken the wrong way.

Don't worry Myth. We didn't elect Trent to be the 'caller' for the K&KA . . . yet! :lol:

However, Allan and Sean may be up for the job of map maker . . . :D

I think the maps are fine for a non-profit product.

Those maps sure the hell are going to eat a lot of ink/toner for whoever prints them.

Naw man, Kellri is the bartender for the alehouse :D
I want to hear what you did in the dungeon, not the voting booth. Politics and rules minutia both bore me in my opinion.

What's this bullshit here?
It is hoped the new party will travel to Grest at this point based on the information provided in the module introduction. If they sit in Restenford or decide to go elsewhere then kiss this module goodbye and take up fly-fishing.
What? Get out of my face with this.

1. Highlight file.
2. Hit the Delete button.
3. Confirm delete.
4. Empty Recycle Bin.

Now, now, don't go baiting with those sarcastic barbs and snarky hooks. Keep your waders on, and don't let the muddy waters fool 'ya. The whole point of the module is to find and defeat a giant catfish named Long Gone Silver, and fly fishing for that slimy bastard is the quickest way to success. That stuff about going to Grest yadda-yadda-yadda is just one giant wild goose chase meant to throw off undiscerning players. So are the maps.
