The Module is one major butt kicker, and I LOVE IT!
Helpful Votes: 1 out of 1 total.
Review Date: 1998-11-19
As someone who helped playtest this module I just have to say it really adds something back to the Ravenloft setting that some of the recent modules have been lacking. DMs looking for an excellent challenge for mid to high level parties need to get this adventure and do mean things to good people!

Review Date: 2002-03-02
Edward P. Berglund is an exceptional editor and writer whose DICIPLES OF CTHULHU (both the earlier edition and the revised later version) are essential for lovers of "Yog-Sothothery" and eldrich tales. Berglund has developed his own niche, an area of Oregon, as a setting for his stories. After reading these eleven tales, you will wish there were eleven more.

Extra-Detail for Any Campaign
Helpful Votes: 0 out of 0 total.
Review Date: 2004-08-16
This is a great little book that supplies extra-detail on Gnolls that should be valuable to any DM. Included are a sample lair and some fine pointers on how Gnolls act and live, as well as what's important and what's not. The Survivor's Tale, while a little gruesome, is particularly insightful to a state of mind that a DM could easily gloss over by just looking at Hit Die and other stats.

A save a plane adventure
Helpful Votes: 4 out of 4 total.
Review Date: 1999-06-22
Suitable for somewhat low level characters yet they have a chance to help save a plane from destruction. This in itself is a definite plus point. If your party consists of hack and slashers and they are not powered up with magic items or levels, my guess is that they will croak fast. If your party can think and plan, they should survive this adventure with minimum *miracles* on the DM's part. It also involves Malar, a FR power, so it might be useful to FR DMs.

A high-quality book, highly recommended.
Helpful Votes: 11 out of 14 total.
Review Date: 2003-01-21
First of all, the quality of this book is absolutely outstanding. The exterior is hard-bound, and very durable. The interior of this book is amazing, it's beautiful. All of the headings are lined in high-quality silver ink.

Now let's get to the actual game. It uses the Open Gaming License d20 system, which works surprisingly well with this game. Each agent has Action Dice, which can be used to augment rolls when in trouble. This represents the spark of a heroic character. The equipment section is superb. From pistols and sub-machine guns to assault rifles and machine guns, it's got everything (check out the Modern Arms/Equipment guide for more).

Overall, I can't stress enough how awesome this book is. The game system is great, the quality is superb, and the atmosphere is absolutely amazing.

This is a must have if you want to run a campaign in the DS9 portion of the terrific game by Unicorn. It contains a gamemaster screen with tables for weapons, movement, maneuvers and more. It also contains a book which helps to develop a good story line with excellant background info on Bajorians, Cardies, and Ferengi. If you don't have it...get it. I love mine.

This is an excellent book for the RPG world of Star Trek which has just so recently come out. A must have for all "Trekkies" and RPG buffs. A great sourcebook to add to your others. Excellent for MUSHes and the like. It deserves five stars.
