Just discovered this, although it looks like it's been quiet/on hiatus for a few months...

Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks for the work you have done thus far.

Don't worry, it's still ongoing. I'm not making any promises as to when, but a pretty substantial update will be coming soon, followed by another compiled conversion document for Fortress of the Stone Giants.


Just found this - as I was planning on running at least Burnt Offerings to start my upcoming 4E campaign. Thanks for all your work - this looks to be really helpful.

I was in the process of redesigning the encounters with both Shayliss & Aldern Foxglove into a group-wide skill challenge: Shayliss for the high charisma bard, Aldern for the group hero, and maybe a few others for the rest of my group. Turn it into a skill challenge for the whole group to maintain/enhance their reputation (discounts on food & lodging, goods in the local stores, etc) or lose it (perverts, losers who got lucky vs the goblins, etc)

Sounds awesome! I hope you do find it helpful, and please keep me updated on how your campaign is going.

Well, we won't be starting for a few more weeks, but I'll make sure to post an update down the road. I just like the way the Burnt Offerings adventure starts with a bang with the big encounter. I've already been working with some of the players for reasons to be in town... I still need some more ideas to flesh out the Shayliss/Aldern group-wide skill challenge as well.


The first few sessions have gone pretty well so far - the party was challenged a bit by the three consecutive goblin encounters, though not quite as much as I'd hoped (and, I'd made them into Level 2, 2 and 3 encounters).

Of course, my rolling was so bad, I could have made the encounters into a level 3, 3 and 4 and they'd still have come through relatively unscathed. (I had a pair of skullcleavers that were so worn down by the time they got to their turn, each got one attack before being slain... and, each attack missed, of course) The highlight of the combat was the goblin hexer blinding the elf ranger, but the elf ranger rolling a natural "20" anyways with his bow attack.

And, while Shayliss and the goblins in the attic scenarios were supposed to be group-wide, I made them into solo encounters and built it all into a big skill challenge for my 6 PCs (shayliss for one, a single goblin for another, and 4 other bits for the other PCs.)

next session kicks off with dinner with Mr. Foxglove.


Just poking my head in here to see if anyone can tell me if this wonderful project has died a quiet death, or is still (even faintly, gaspingly) alive... I'm hoping for the latter but fearing the former; can someone prove me wrong?

Last I heard Scott was in another part of the country away from his group for some set period of time and planned to finish the project when he returned. I don't really have any more information then that though Scott has been very quite lately.

Thanks for the update - I was wondering what had happened. I hope everything is okay with him.

I believe he commented somewhere that he was picking up a law degree...I suspect that everything is OK but that his life just gotten eaten by school.


The material seems to be really great, but all the download links don´t work anymore. Does anybody have the files, updated links or would be so kind to upload again? That would be great!!! Thanks so much!

Anyone have any current info on this? Would love to run it for some friends, but as Beatboy said, all the links are dead =/

I downloaded them a while ago. I have copies of the files stored for my meetup.

He never did the last two: "Sins of the Saviors" or "Spires of Xin-Shalast"

You are the MAN! Even if he didnt get the last 2 done, I imagine using the first 4 will give a good feel for how to finish the last 2!

Personally, my big issue is time. Im a full time nursing student and the flaming hoops they make us jump thru take huge amounts of time, both in and out of class. Being able to follow the lead of someone who has gone before you is a huge help in learning curve!
