February '08? Damn it, my group already killed him two weeks ago! Oh well, if I ever run an encounter with goblins riding dogs again, I know where to look if I need a mini.

Will any of the future installments of RotR have a calendar system that we can use for our group's campaign journals and such? It would be a nice treat to know the world's dating system, when the major festivals/annual events are, and even when the phases of the moon occur, just for role-playing purposes.
The rogue in my group robbed Zenith at the end of Chapter 4, taking his Gauntlets of Ogre Power +2. I'm a little confused after looking up the item in the DMG. The item they list in the DMG states that it grants the wearer a +2 Strength bonus. Since the item Zenith had in possession were a set of +2 Gauntlets, does this mean the wearer gets a +4 strength bonus? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
Situation: The 5 PCs that are participating in the Shackled City campaign (hc edition) just finished Life's Bazaar at level 4. I skimmed ahead and saw that chapter 2 (Drakthar's Way) revolves mostly around fighting goblins. What I'd like to know: Should I just have my group skip ahead to chapter 3 (Flood Season), since it is recommended for 4th-level characters? Will my players miss anything important if I have them skip chapter 2 and move on to something that's more in line with their current level, or should it be run in the order that it was written? I really don't feel like they should be clobbering their way through goblins; any adventure whose battles come off as underpowered (and I don't feel like giving those goblins extra hit points) will make the evening a dull one for my group. Those of you who ran this campaign from both the magazine and/or hardcover format, your input is greatly appreciated! By the way, I understand that Chapter 2 did not appear in Dungeon Magazine when this Adventure Path was originally published. |
