\nThe Buzz in the Bridge
\nBy John Simcoe
\nLevel 3<\/p>\n

Thisfifteen page adventure has the party getting rid of a giant bee hive that\u2019s been built in a covered bridge near a halfling town. The adventure has, maybe, two encounters, or three if we count some roleplaying in the town. It\u2019s amazing how Dungeon can stretch out a nothing adventure in to reams of paper. In spite of the volumes of pages, the adventure has some decent ideas. The halfling kids run to the party saying things like \u201cWe picked these flowers for you!\u201d, along with some other guilt-trip shit. Perfect! The party is also NOT forced to fight the giant bees when they attack a local winery. Finally, how the party removes the bees from the covered bridge is not dictated. They are free to come up with whatever plan they wish \u2026 keeping in mind they\u2019ve been admonished not to damage the bridge. The village has a nice little map overview which provides enough detail to run the village fairly well. The map just lists various businesses without the text going in to detail. The ACTUAL village text runs long, as one could expect a fifteen page adventure with two encounters to do. ALso, there\u2019s no actual map of the winery or the bridge layout\/hive. Well. Mostly. There\u2019s an insert map of the bridge. It is four squares wide and 32 squares long. It\u2019s clearly MEANT to be a tactical hack-fest, from the battle-map provided. Not being FORCED in to that makes this worthy of more than my usual diarrhea diatribe.<\/p>\n

Last Stand at Outpost Three

The majesty of Dark Sun reduced to crap. This is a kick off adventure for a Dark Sun campaign. The party starts off as rando\u2019s at an outpost that\u2019s been surrounded by elves and faces nightly elf attacks. The adventure starts at sunsset of the third day, after two nights of attacks. The randos are assigned to guard one section of the wall. Four \u201cwaves\u201d of attackers come in, with a wave being defined as one or two attackers. The next night the randos are assigned to guard the inside of a warehouse, during a dust storm. Three waves of zombies attack. There\u2019s your adventure! Welcome to Dark Sun! There IS a page of adventure seeds, for continuing the campaign, based on what the party does after the second attack. IE: some ideas on where the DM to take things based on what\/how the party leaves the compound. Did I mention the NPC descriptions\/stat blocks take \u00be of a page? Member when Dark Sun was good?
