Nice overall module, that runs a whole lot smoother than G1. That said I would also say that in some ways it felt blander, as though there was nothing special about the way it was 'dressed'. Classic PnP conversions can be tough to make exciting and run smoothly as they are based on dice and imagination, more than computer screens and scripting can usually produce. I found that some of the screens felt like 'work' to get through, but again this is just minor complaining. I was happy to find this mod pretty much bug free, which is why I gave a higher vote than I did for G1. Bugs and Possible ***SPOILERS*** Biggest Bug was that I was randomly getting 6000 exp. for NO REASON. This happened 3 seperate times, and those times couldn't be redone, even after walking through them over and over. The first time was in the area called 'Ice Cavern' before the doorway that leads to the 'Western Ledge'. Second time was upon entering 'Cold Breath' area from 'Junction' area. Last time was right before entering Jarl's room. Weird isn't it???? As Steve mentioned before, the prisoners didn't respond to being saved ever. The wonderful giant henchman doesn't respond when Jarl is killed. This was disappointing as I was hoping for at least some new dialogue from him! Otherwise, it was a pretty good adventure. I would write more but I must go have a bath....being covered in giant blood sucks!.... Thanks for the hard work Trev.

gladu, when you start up NWN, there is an 'Update' button to update the game to the latest patch. _________________________ Trev

Hello. I am new here and I have a problem with the G1 and G2 modules I have downloaded. I have NWN platinum but I get a message saying the modules have been created using a newer tool version. What gives ?

Posted by JonnyP at on08/02/06
A solid conversion of a decent module. Enjoyable Hack and Slash fun.

Much better than G1 though I'd like more descriptions from the module

Fairly good hack and slash. I finished all 3 and it was an enjoyable series.
