Taken

Taken

I had an idea for a ‘delve’.  It would be a small’ish diversion from a mainline plotline, possibly used to influence a urban plotline but primarily to add a bit of Scooby Doo and the Gang to a campaign where the players figure out a crime. As you might have guessed from the post title …

Module – Scourge of the Rat Men

Rattus Erectus

A friend bought me a copy of Sourge of the Rat Men for christmas (*gasp* he didn’t say holidays or capitlized the c?!  OMG!). Production values are a little… short?  It feels like what I’m sure it is, someone with old school DM experience and  a copy of Word or perhaps In Design but with …

Free Module – Trouble at Mountain Pass

Random Image

You can find an introductory first level module for 4th edition over here.  At first quick read through it seems usable.  It is missing maps but the encounters are all what I call open air encounters where the actual ‘map’ isn’t critical so don’t necessary take that against it. Gotta go put my kids to …

Free Module

KOTB Throwback

The Free RPG Day module, Treasure of Talon pass has been released for your bemusement.  It’s a biggun at 20+ meg pdf.  It’s really designed for new players and dm’s although in all honesty I think it’s a bad  example for DM’s. To give you an example. You have a fairly small area where you …

Free Module – Ashenport

Ashenport

Wizards has released the “The Last Breaths of Ashenport” an updated module for 4th edition. Heroic Tier but at first glance I can’t see the actual level requirements.  Mentions Cthulhu which is never bad in my book. I’m guessing that ‘landscape’ is the new black this year in terms of module layout?  I don’t care …

City in the Sky Module

7748705

While not a full blown module per se, this thread could certainly form the basis of one and with some decent DM skills could be used pretty easily as is. You’d have to do your own maps but just wing it. Make it a small side quest or a filler session etc. Of course this …
