Update is ready! Yep, already. But I think updates will slow down as it gets more and more polished I guess.  I have to stop calling it a mini-solo now though, since it is by far a full-sized one. (If it means anything, I printed this one out. ) Download v1.2 ("the 3rd one") |

Jongjungbu, the latest version has 2 blank pages between the interior title page and the Rules of Play page. Not sure if that's deliberate, an artefact of my system, or something else, but I thought that I'd mention it.
Also, an Exalt, because this is looking really good!

Not delibrate, but I was too lazy to fix LOL. I put 1 blank page after the acknowledgements page, to show that one is on its own page and that the Rules of Play (Page i) would be printed as a right hand page, if that makes sense. Then when I generated the PDF, it inserted an extra!!! Weird, but oh well. Oh, thanks for the exalts again guys. |

I put the Solo up on my website for everyone to have access to. If you still see any problems though, feel free to let me know however you want to inform me. I'm not saying it is completed, nor ever will, but I think it's rounded enough for everyone to play now. Hell, it's more polished than some of those Judge's Guild adventures am I right? Haha.  I've already been putting together another solo though... |

Agreed on the 'can't wait to see it' part of the comment. Mahrundl in a loincloth is a sight that would drive even hardened Chthulu investigators totally insane, though, so I shall decline to join in that aspect of Hogscape's enthusiasm...  ;D |

LOL. For those less aware, the second solo is called Dark Side of the Desert over here. |

I finally had a character earn 10,000 gp in other other solos and tried this out last night. I like all your work (Sea of Mystery was one of my FBI favorites too) but have to say this is my favorite! A very original concept, professionaly executed. I played it for two hours last night and am going to play some more tonight; I know I have come nowhere near exhausting all the possiblities, partly because I kept getting similar rolls (going to switch from Eposic to real dice and see if that makes a difference). Thanks again for the great free stuff!

Fellgore, there are some brilliant T&T computer based tools here: sites.google.com/site/hogtunnels/downloads-1 under the heading Utilities for your Windows PC Computer. Barony is also one of my faves, JJB has a real talent (just needs to change the name of that bloomin' desert)! |

Very nice indeed! There is a lot of good use for those special magic items. I think I'll take a character through who owns similar goodies (i.e. the Runed Keg from Sword for Hire and the Wizard of Blackstone pebble from Abyss). See what that does to the adventure And I finally have a new adventure to take characters after Jungles of Lost Souls. Sometimes, my characters come out with a very elite group of warriors. |

Thanks for linking that! I will definitely use Track n' Troll - should save eraser wear and tear on my character cards! Too bad Prodice doesn't show individual dice values. You can't figure spite damage without it. The card feature is nice. Since I spilled wine on my old "Death" playing cards (52 reasons to stop smoking) I have been using Windows Solitaire to randomize cards in Gamesmen of Kasar. Does the character generator use TARO? |

I believe it does, and calls TARO 'Ken Dice'... Probably predates the creation of TARO? |

Thanks fellgore! Glad you enjoyed it. The jury is still out on what I will be working on next heheh. |
