Scarab Sages

I played in the updated version of this at Penguicon 2011. I liked the setting a lot, but there were some problems. If I could rate it, I would give it 3 stars.

We had a party of 4 characters (Clr1, Fig1, Wiz2, Fig1). We *barely* survived the first encounter.

Details about an encounter:
The fight in the hall of the honored dead is just too hard for 4 characters. The zombie that has an AC of 20 (!!) and a ghoul (3 attacks) and 1 skeleton. Jeez. And with the pregen cleric with no turn undead, we just had to do it the hard way.

The final encounter was good fun.

And yet...:
The caster in the corner required a perception check of 25 to see him. I managed it because I rolled a nat 20 and have a fairly crazy perception skill for a 2nd level character.

In the final analysis, I'd like to see this tweaked a little bit more to accommodate first level characters.
