Today the Dragonslayers ventured into the most fabled of all dungeons, the infamous Tomb of Acereak himself. The Tomb of Horrors!
I am running the 3e version of this module with ideas stolen from the 4e version and the 2nd ed Return to the Tomb of Horrors. Additionally we are using this map set to help us along the way.
So far so good. My youngest loves the traps and he very meticulous on checking each one. It was even his idea to use a 10' pole on the Green Devil Face to check for traps and he found the Sphere of Annihilation. He loves the puzzles and really has a brain for them. My oldest prefers good old fashioned combat. They both were able to guess the correct sequence of the Yellow/Blue/Orange gems right away. Sure a couple of characters have been hit with some poison, but the brought plenty vials of healing, curing and cure poison. Though they have taken quite a bit of hitpoint damage.
So far it has been a great followup to S4/WG4.
The Dragonslayers have now finished S4, S2 and now working on S1. I wasn't going to do S3 (Expedition to the Barrier Peaks) but now I think I might. It would be a lot of fun.
We played for 6 hours (or more) today and I think we can knock this one out fairly quickly.
That looks great. I think I would be thrilled to see the tomb revealed as we went along. I'd have wavy lines around me the whole time because of the constant flashbacks.
