Help-arriving to port wile it's being attacked adventure

[hanez]

Hi, I'm sort following skull and shackles but with some heavy modifications. I've incorporated a bit of savage tide as well as some other aps.

For my next adventure the pc's are traveling to a town Fishguts has advised will be a great a place to sell and trade their loot.

I am planning for that port to be under attack by cheliaxians when they arrive, and have the pc's intervene. Some encounters I am considering include:

-the pc's attacking a ship with ballista
-boarding a warship and defeating it
-chasing a fleeing ship
-attacking the advanced party of soldiers in the town
-being thanked as heroes by the town
-and most importantly finding a hook to lead them to the invaders base

I am fishing for some neat ideas to flesh this out a bit... does anyone have ideas or know of an adventure along the same line I could use for ideas? It doesnt have to be a naval adventure, as I am sure a "arrive in a town while it's being attacked" adventure would give me lots of ideas.

You shouldn't use Chelaxian Warship for now. The house of Thrune would try to corrupt before invading.

As a premise to the Chelaxian's invasion, I used the module : LB1 Tower of the Last Baron. And I used the next module : LB2 Treasure of the Chimera Cove a little later, to boost my PC fleet.

You need to make some change, but it's a great addition if done well.

Hmmm Thanks for your reply, but maybe I forgot to say that I am not using the "pathfinder" setting. I pick and use adventures here and there, and the first couple I used were from Skull and Shackles, but I have since moved quite a bit away from that story line (I stopped following the path after book 2). In my campaign, the cheliaxians are actually controlled by Aboleths, the PCs don't know this yet, but forsee the players having to recruit mythical beings to help them in their fight against the aboleths/chelaxians.

For now tho, I am just trying to make a really cool adventure where the PCs arrive in a town and find it being ravaged by warships. Anyone know of any that I could modify?
