Minor Grumble about Season of Plundered Tombs Adventure 5

[Dave Arlington]

Not sure if this a spoiler or not, so I'll be slightly vague here.

There are two scenarios in Adventure 5 "The Sepulcher Soars Anew" where you replace your Role card with another Role card for that scenario.

Due to my party composition, turns out my character was best suited to take that role. (Poor Flenta, she wants to be a real mage SOOOO bad...) Even character-wise, it sort of makes sense to me.

But I was so excited to get my Role card, it was actually the first Role card I had ever gotten. (All my other campaigns had stalled before getting that far.) So I was also all excited to start using it.

But for 40% of this Adventure, I am not even going to get to use it. (It doesn't make sense for anyone else to take it in either scenario in our current party makeup.)

It's just kind of bumming. Just saying. :)

Yeah, that ended up not quite as intended due to some unfortunate mechanical conflicts and considerations. There are some characters/players where swapping is an exciting twist, but in some parties it just doesn't quite work right. That said, there's something to be said about being thrown out of your comfort zone occasionally, too.

There's a later scenario that has a far less invasive method that I think worked out more agreeably.
